    Has anyone lowered a LR?

    It wouldn't need much, just enough to get it under the garage door as currently it only clears the top by deflating the tyres and standing on the back. I'm about to start thinking about budget shocks and possibly springs if needed. I won't be doing tons of deep mud off roading so a slight...

    Does anyone know if it's possible to trace down previous owner of vehicle?

    My restoration is an 85 110. It would be interesting to the original owner I'm sure to see what's happening with the LR. I don't need anything from original owner only that if it was me I would definitely find it interesting to see a few photos. I have a dealership name on the licence plate...

    Steering wheel puller

    I think that's the way mine might be going as it doesn't seem to be budging at all.

    Steering wheel puller

    I've thought about it. If cheap enough and easy enough to purchase I was willing to save myself the bother just this one time :)

    Bulkhead project (inside vent panel)

    Does anyone know if these replacement panels exist? I'm after the inside panel for the top of the bulkhead replacing the left vent and just below down to that square hole. These two panels only replace the outside...

    lt77 gearbox selector housing

    Looks as though it's supposed to be straight. Mine must be massively worn down. I wonder if that would be causing the gear selection issues.

    lt77 gearbox selector housing

    Is it supposed to have that notch in it? Does it look worn? I would have thought it needs to be straight. It's the same on the other side. I'm not getting 1st, 3rd and 4th. It seems to go into 2nd, 5th and reverse but the engine still cuts out like it's in gear even when it's in neutral. I...

    Degreasing and cleaning a dirty engine?

    I sprayed the gunk on earlier and brushed it off with wire wool. This is result after 5 minutes of work. So far looks promising.

    What engine oil do you use?

    1986 2.5 n/a diesel. There's a lot to choose from: https://bearmach.com/catalogsearch/result/?q=Engine+oil I'm planning to order new oil, oil filter, fuel filter and air filter.

    Degreasing and cleaning a dirty engine?

    Cheers guys, I just ordered some of that degreaser. It'll be nice to see the front half match the rear.

    Is my gearbox fubar'd? [Video]

    Ha, yeh it's been in the garage for a year whilst I strip back the chassis and treat with buzzweld. Before that it was probably in a ditch in a sheep field judging by the amount of mud I'v removed so far. It did run and steer on a test in a farmer's field before buying and it rolled into the...
