If ya used ****part bushes take one of the springs off and remove the bush and shackle, assemble the bush and shackle outside the spring and place the shackle into a vice, torque it up to the required poundage then grab a set of gas pump pliers or stilsons and I think you'll find the outer...

Dunno if the one on the 200Tdi I'm stripping would fit I'm down in Thanet (not sure where tamwoth staff is) sure a forum relay or courier could be arranged if it'll fit ? If it'll fit £50 plus courier charge

You tried Mer on a buffer ? I think it's about £15 for half a litre but worth every penny. It's a lot like T-cut more pulls up a brilliant finish which lasts and can be done by hand or with a mop/buffer. Another little trick we used to used on old motors was Jif cream cleaner used to take all...

I believe the bead on tubeless rims not only keeps the tyres inflated but prevents the tyres from leaving the rims. When we had the new tyres fitted to the series 3 the chap went out and bought new tubes and advised against not having them fitted, Didn't charge much either £45 per tyre with tube...

I'm not sure, I would say if the entire Chassis gets replaced over time I wouldn't take a chance I'd notify them or send them an email asking their advice. Personally I'd rather completely strip the motor and then repair the original chassis, If it's pretty good after the repairs I'd have the...

Free beer, Free food..... Wonder if the cost of fuel getting there is reimbursed aswell :D

Just send Mod1 a PM

I believe you've missed out a couple of bits in regards to the chassis number and chassis replacement. A chassis number was not legally required until 1981, therefore a vehicle manufactured before then will not need to have one, I have no Vin plate or chassis number on my S2a and it only...

Nut splitter from Halfords or local auto factors, bough a set a few years ago and they've got me outta the dodoos a few times. Other thing thats worked is securing a ring spanner or socket with a power bar to the nut on the motor attaching a nice heavy rope and towing it with another motor...

well ya didn't say that did ya now :doh: leave it alone for an hour or two and then try it again is all I can think of unless you've pulled something off without realising it ?

Sounds like it's damp, Dry out all ya leads and what nots, give it a bit of a spray with that shyte that pushes out moisture or just leave it until tommorrow ta dry out. And that'll teach ya for washing a bloody landy!!

I got two of these, LR series lists them as being defender mountings and was just wondering if these would work on me series ? And if so, would it be safe, I don't want to trust the strap on it's own as it doesn't seem man enough to me, plus theres the option of putting a piece of threaded...

Gotta have something to keep em busy or they'd get bored now wouldn't they :p

What would be the need, theres a report button and it's quite easy to press it. no need to check every vid posted.

Took it round the block so I could put it outside the house to load up ready to take over the yard and ended up with a rather sqwauky clutch on the hill, was fine yesterday. Never mind, another little job for me to do :)

Just added pics of the motor to the advert.

Well, according to the track fault on the highways site the blockage has been removed or at least marked as resolved. will have to drive up there and take a look and see. must remember to take me camera with me. If the lump of concrete is still there blocking the road what else can I do ? Take...

Paid £8 +vat for mine from east kent autos (auto factors), that stuff in the cream metal can for classic motors (can't remember the name).

I have two of these on mine that are non-existant, MOT tester said that they will need to be changed but couldn't fail the motor on them as they are not actually part of the structure or interfere with any of the suspension mounting componants. I changed the one that was only about 5" long...
