    Seat risers for early 90

    I’m after seat risers for my 1986 90 but I can’t seem to find any that fit the early seats, as they have screws rather than the bolt fitting of the later models. See attached pic. Does anyone know of a supplier or is it a case of making some?

    P38A Flat battery

    A new battery should hold a charge for more than 3 days without use. It sounds like there’s a drain such as an internal light not switching off or something else drawing a current to flatten the battery.

    Why the discrepancy?

It was originally white by the paint under the transmission tunnel, but is currently mainly blue. New paint job is one of the many jobs to...

    Why the discrepancy?

    Hi, recently bought myself a 90. Hurray! First registered November 1986. Thing is the chassis number, correct on the vehicle and log book indicates a1983-84 manufacture date. Assume 1984 as it’s a 90. That means anything between 2 and up to almost 3 years from build to first registration...

    Back Axle Noise

    I'm looking to get back into Landy land after been without for a couple of years. I had to sell my old series 2a when we moved house. I've seen a 1985, 90 with LPG conversion that I can do a deal on with my Ford Ranger. The engine and gas conversion sounds great, the speedo has 80,000 but...
