Yep there's one in Fenton, already placed an order though :( thanks anyway chaps

Pretty sure that's how they are on all military ones (I.e not having the headlight surround)

Ought be worth doing the deep clean, just to be sure it's actually the cause of the oily stain?

Ok thanks, for now I have a tempary earth running from the neg side of the bulb, up under the bonnet, and on to the battery, should be ok for a few days :)

Hey basically my indicators are broke, are the ones that paddocks sell any good ? (The ones that are £3 ish ?, it says made by wipac, however if it turns out to be Britpart I will be severely f**kd off) and don't have the funds for the LED type as I need to buy engine mounts aswell Thanks ben

Ok thanks James :)

Thanks chaps, am i safe to lift the engine with a bottle jack and a thick bit of wood on the bottom of the sump, or am i likely to damage the sump?

Ok I will do, is there any way of viewing it without taking the overdrive off? I.e that inspection plate on top of the box? At this stage I'm not bothered about tightening it, to to look and feel how loose it is. Thanks ben

Thanks for all the replies chaps, I think I'm going to look into the gearbox and engine mounts, and not worry about the rest ( as from what I understand, it probs won't blow up soon and also have minimal funds!) so thanks again:)

I've done an oil change (engine, main box, transfer and OD) there were some dust sized metallic pieces, but nothing like a chuck, (Didnt seem anything worth worrying about) and is there any way to check the synchro springs without taking the box out ( I can't see a way)

Ill look into the mounts, (as taking the box out and doing anything meaningful is prob out of my skill set, also It's my only transport so can't just take it off the road for a week or 2), do I just check the mounts visually? And if the rubber is splitting it's fooked? Also can they be changed...

No real difficulty engaging any gears, it doesn't jump out of gear, when I say snick the the gear stick moves, say I'm in 4th, let off power then back on, the gear stick moves backwards and makes a click when It's moved, but while crusing it's fine. I've not noticed any particularly noisy gear...

I've got a 1984 series 3 diesel, the gearbox has a few issues, rattling overdrive handle (sorted that with a large socket) but when everything is warm, (say 10mile drive) if I'm in neutral and the clutch pedal is up, there's a rattling noise, any ideas what it is? From what I've researched it's...

Remenber smoke is fairly normal on older landrovers, however I'm not saying ignor divie, buy a new speedo cable (not made by Britpart, there stuff has no quality), adjusting the pump timing can be done without proper equipment, but it may take a few attempts to get it right by just using eye...

Ok thanks chaps, will have a look tomorrow, soberness depending

The cover you speak of, is this where my overdrive is bolted on? I guess i would have to remove the overdrive for access ? also are there differnt mounts for diesels and petrols? I read online there isnt, however my parts catalouge says otherwise

Hi again chaps, how do I/ how hard is it to tighten the main shaft nut ? I don't think I'm competent to take the gearbox out :/ And my engine mounts do look like they've seen better days, when I lift the engine to replace, do I need an engine lift ? Or can I put some wood on the bottom of the...

Cheers divie, 1. Is the bearing thing a real issue? Or just live with it? 2. How hard is it to replace the mounts? 3. I hear I need to cut the door frame or something? 4. Where do I need to attatch the rubber band? Thanks again:)

Hey chaps, just a few niggles... 1. There is a rattling sound ( I think from the back of the engine) that goes away when the clutch is depressed. 2. When in 4th, if I let off the throttle, then accelerate, the gear stick clicks backwards. 3. Door seals, drivers side leaks in water (I think...

My hardtop leaks ! Remenber nothing I guaranteed
