Just recently bumped into guy who I sold one of my freelanders to ,and its still going well and no probs with box and its still on ATF-U HTSH

The ideal if you can find them are the one ton or Fc rims . I have run them tubeless for donkeys years without any probs apart from one that had a slow leak at one of the rivets .

I have fitted quite a few to landrovers , and earlier landcruisers , just used the mini or mg brake remote booster you can get a kit from HK for about £70 .

At 11.9 volts the battery is only at 40% capacity , and would need a good set of jump leads from another vehicle with engine running at good level to bring battery voltage up before trying to turn over on starter. Having boosted the battery for say 10 mins try to start by button /key . If it...

It wouldn't take a lot to mod that ladder you have in the pic , its basically a flat plate hinge that's fixed to floor inside the box and rubber flap seal fitted to bottom of door . The body looks nice , love the poptop ! Lot of work self-building tho :) Keep up the good work .

this might give you an idea on access steps , i have gone a similar way on them in my Bucher duro the advantage is that you can operate them from inside vehicle . https://www.blissmobil.com/au/products/15ft/body-15-foot BTW we met at Duns Tew @lozza59 :)

"Snap" and you're back in the room . :) Having owned every model of Landrover made upto start of Evoque except a Lwt and several Freelander1 and a 1 FL2 yes the FL is a 4x4 but is not in the ball park compared with a series or defender when the going gets tough . That doesnt make it a...

What Landrover could have built or been similar to as a true replacement for a defender The other thing Landrover dont seem to be getting is that the different models , including this defender wannabe are all selling into the same market segment , that is they are competing with themselves ...

You've just made the main point of this failure on the part of landRover , its a replacement for a Forrester , not a defender .

It was so foreseeable . Its a vehicle version of an "app" whereas the original defender was a vehicle version of a hammer ! Its not even a good interpretation of a real landrover , its another variation on a theme that is Velar , evoque, Discovery sport , RR sport ,FFRR . I dont need...

The 6x6 drive that Foley use is very expensive , and then you also have cost of building a box , and modding chassis , by the time you have built a 6x6 on a landy of any sort you will be over 3500kg . I looked at changing my 110 to 6x6 but worked out for what you end up with wasn't worth...

As it mentions in the listing , have reached a point of reality where I am having to let my 110 that I have owned 30years go to a new home :( I am hoping to find a real enthusiast to use and care for it :) Its listed on ebay , with basic spec , pm me if you want to ask or clarify ...

nothing a set of rings wont sort !!

If the foglights are wired so that you have to have sidelights on , you will have to have another relay in circuit so that they go off when you operate dipswitch to dip , to be legal , as you can only have one pair of dipped headlights on at a time other than in fog or reduced visibility (less...

My 110 is quite happy to cruise at 70 gps (speedo is optimistic by about 3mph) even with 285/75 MT , its a tdi but of BMW origin 3ltr with 245bhp Rallyraid Dakar ecu . It accelerates faster than with its oe V8 or later 3.9i fitment . :)

Dont forget to reset your lock stops to stop fouling on side of springs :)

Sticking the remote servo in cab would require fluid pipe entering and exiting cab , I used to fit in wing space under bonnet , all you need is a T in the vac line for brake servo and pipe to new servo . The engine pump will cope with both . HTSH

Why do you need another vacuum source , is it a non vac pump engine ? @dieseldog69

If you have a fixed budget , then halve it to buy the best you can and then the other half will be spent on sorting out all/ some of the problems of previous owners , depending how well you bought .

Yes probably be better for first thing in am if we can t it up now ?
