    Disocvery 2 inner wings

    Started repairing my inner wings today, the rot had gone to the floor. Here are some before and after pictures, I'm still not quite done cutting some bits need trimming. I have a repair panel from froggarts which i think will work perfectly and the rest is actually quite straight forward...

    What thickness metal?

    So this month I'm replacing the inner wing with a panel from Froggatts but I also need to replace part of the passenger front floor/bulk head. What thickness metal do I need for this? It's a discovery 2.

    Discovery 2 grease UJ

    Can anyone tell me what grease nipples are needed to grease props on a disco 2? I see that you need to remove grub screws to do it but not sure what thread etc is needed to install a grease nipple.

    Inner wing repair

    So my discovery 2 needs the inner wing welder and some of the bulkhead/floor where the loom is. I'm going to tackle it myself and I found one thread with pictures but does anyone else have pictures of their repairs?

    Clarke welder

    Hopefully this isn't in the wrong section, my discovery 2 needs the inner wing, body mount and an outrigger welding. I'm going to pick up a welder 2nd hand, I'm a complete newbie to welding but am not afraid to learn. I've found a clarke 135te on Facebook, would this be powerful enough for...

    Td5 tensioner recommendation

    It's a good make, all our cambelts are gates however when its dearer than genuine by about 25 quid then genuine is a no brainer

    Td5 tensioner recommendation

    Thanks chaps, I work in a motorfactors and genuine is cheaper than a gates one i can get.

    Td5 tensioner recommendation

    I need to replace the aux belt and tensioner on my td5 disco. What brands would people recommend? Genuine tensioner isn't horrendous money but I've seen a SNR one advertised as OEM. I'll get a dayco belt.

    Discovery 2 front drive shaft leak

    I had just done my ball joints so the ball joint tool came with a perfect size cylinder to tap in the new seal. Pray for us the seals hold out

    Discovery 2 front drive shaft leak

    I think I may of read your thread. The NAK seal was harder to install than the previous however my previous one had ripped the centre. Fingers crossed for this new one. Can't believe seal fitment is still an issue in 2024

    Discovery 2 front drive shaft leak

    Had to fit another seal today, the first seal i replaced grabbed the axle and tore! Just fitted a NAK one which appears larger so we shall see.

    Discovery 2 front drive shaft leak

    I hope my first reply didn't seem argumentative as that wasn't my intention at all! My seal was leaking horrendously and I need the car for a weekend camping trip. I fitted the new all makes seal tonight, ensured everything was as clean as possible and the road test went successfully with no...

    LR Newbie

    Hi all, just thought I'd introduce myself. Recently purchased my first ever landrover, a pretty well used discovery 2 manual with a Td5. I'm not new to working on cars I've lived and breathed cars since I was 17ish now 27 and was a mechanic for a little while. Based in Norfolk I'm hoping to...

    Discovery 2 front drive shaft leak

    I did read your posts from way back. I can't believe this is still an issue. It appears that they sell loads of the all makes seals on JGS all with 5 star reviews. My local independent LR specialist JSF in Norwich supplied me an all makes seal aswell. I trust their judgement on selling good...

    Discovery 2 front drive shaft leak

    So I changed my ball joints at the weekend one side and I had to remove and install the shaft a couple times due to the tapers on the ball joint not allowing the knuckle to sit correctly. I can only assume I've disturbed the seal as its now leaking after a test drive. Local land rover...
