    TDC On A 3.5 V8

    Same as mine, got one of these securing the crank pulley: Rimmer Bros sell them as "Bolt - Crankshaft Pulley - Starting Dog type - Genuine Land Rover" so I guess it's for attempting to start the engine manually?

    Will box-section sills pass MOT in NI?!

    I tried searching for an answer on the forum but couldn't quite find what I'm looking for - for anyone who has replaced their rotten sills with 100x60 box section, have you had any issues with MOTs?

    Hello from Kuwait!

    Hi all, just thought I'd register and introduce myself instead of lurking :) I work in Kuwait at the moment, but home is back in Northern Ireland - I only get to travel home every 3 months or so, and am in the process of quite possibly the worlds slowest restoration :) I've got a thread over...
