Hi the thump is when moving and going over holes in the road surface, one thing that surprised me was the old links ball came right out the socket, that ammount of wear I have never ever seen, so maybe the axle is moving way to much not familiar with the rear set up on this so any pointers will...

I have replaced the rear shocker bushes top and bottom and the Anti roll bar drop links, since this I have a thump from the rear like its the shockers, you know the sound as a wheell drops into a hole with no damping but the shockers were ok when I had them off so wtf is it likely to be ??

or cut up an old tyre, Dev

Could be I never read the thread just the title Dev

http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f8/breaking-300tdi-discovery-all-parts-available-165171.html what about here Dev

PaulMc Yep, that could be it as we used a lot of off road loactions, happy days except in the cold dark and wet which was most of the time, I have crawled out from under my mashy wagon to find myself in some precarious places at first light Dev

As far as I can remember hieght was never a issue the miltary ever dealt with as all NATO trailers had a A bar on pivots and the vehicle hitch had six, if I remember slots to pick from, mind you that was back in the 80's has your trailer got a pivoting A bar Dev

Thanks guys, good idea James I think thats how I'l go as the damaged areas are limited, nut serts great idea too cheers Dippyud

I have looked at dozens of posts and searched a lot, but, is the rear floor a single panel with L shaped rails around the 4 sides with x braces or is the floor in 2 parts, also I like the idea of Green Hornets ally chequer floor so can it be bolted down, I am thinking of what I call self...

The "old school" way is yank a lead off one at a time with the tick over as low as it'll go with out stalling if you have a miss or two you'll soon know, if you suspect a lead swap it with a none missing cylinder if the miss migrates its the lead if it stays put plug might be dodgy, have fun Dev

good idea that Jailon, I thing screwfix sell them if not theres a company I use called TLC electrical I use them in cloakroooms drying roms etc for clients Dev

Nessecity is the mother of invention, and fattening too apparently. Dev

I find that dampness is a curse, get some silica gel packs and scatter them about, remove anything in fact every thing from the car books jackets rags take out the mats as well and anything else you can think of where moisture can get trrapped, if you can get a mobile dehumidifier on week-end...

Yep me too, although it did work on cracked amber lenses for the mot years back fell off or burnt in about 30 mins still it stopped the white light shining through and thats all the tester was interested in Dev

Oh right is that what your on about I have news for you this "look" is as old as Joe Lucas we used lucozade wrapping of the old bottles about 40 years ago Dev

I thought these were illegal in the uk,

Thanks good link Dev

Perhaps, although I would like to see how it goes together first before I start Dev

Anyone got a link to a D1 300 chassis layout I have had search and found pics etc, but what I need is a exploded view of what attaches to what and where, I have the LR factry body manuall but it does not have what I need, perhaps they though it would never be needed, Dev

Hi yes done a lot of searches here and else where, it is still as yet undecided MOT not till March next year so time yet. Dev
