Just purchased myself a 98 Discovery 1 V8i ES and while it all looks in very good condition the drivers seat is a bit grubby. Looks like one of the previous owners as been dropping something nasty into his lap. I've been looking about the Landy online stores and Ebay but I can't find any...

Hello Steve I'm near Edenbridge in Kent so not to far from you. I've ordered a stud extractor set to have a go at getting mine sorted so hopefully next weekend will give repairing it a go. If I can get at least one of the bolts out and renewed that'll be better than nothing. Looking up the...

I was investigating why my battery warning light was giving a faint glow. I thought it was just a case the adjusting bolt had worked a bit loose so the alternator had slipped and lossen the belt...However it was a bit more of a problem than that. I found that the bolts holding the...

When I passed my driving test in the year....tiddly spot doo!!! my first car was this old series 3 109" 1 ton, fitted with the 2.6ltr straight six. It got me wondering if the old girl was still going. I ran her for about 5 years but ended up having to sell her because there was a lot of welding...

I'm making a start on doing bits and pieces on my H reg 110 Defender and I've been noticing on the rocker cover on the 200tdi there are oil leaks at the 3 bolts along the top (see photos) I don't believe it to be huge amounts of oil but engines are a complete mystery to me....is this just a...

I'm planning to give my 1990 110 Defender a refurbish this coming spring & summer, cleaning of all the rust, giving the chassis a paint and fitting new bits and pieces. I have bought a polybush set (Deflex orange ones I think) to replace all the rubber ones with. I don't have the money to pay...

I'm gradually getting bits and pieces done on my 1990 110 Defender and I'm looking for a supply of the bodywork fixings for the front grill. These are the little orange coloured plastic blocks that fit into hole in the metal body panels and then you drive your screws into them, I only have a...

Just to let everyone know that the spring are now available again

Hi there Bri Sorry about that, but glad to hear you are sorted out, I might have to use the spring seats on my own land rover now as the back ones are starting to show their age after replacing the front ones. Dave

Hello Brifelixdriver Sorry for the delay in replying The spring seats are available, if you email me at jetmorgan@daverichardson.plus.com then we can sort things out Dave

I have just had the front suspension and alternator renewed on my 1990 Defender and I have some surplus bits to dispose of:- First up are the spring seats, NRC9700, these are powder coated ones from Britpart. I originally bought them to use but stupidly forgot I bought them and bought a pair of...

Many thanks for your quick reply.....and station house's as well.....a case of great minds think alike I'd say. The garage should get it done pretty quickly but they often have commercial vehicles in unannounced so have to divert their attention to those. but they do a good job and are...

I've just been checking the rear propshaft on my 1990 Defender 110 and I've noticed the UJ between the rear propshaft and the rear diff needs replacing. I've ordered a new part for fitting and will give it all to my local garage for fitting. Hopefully he can fit the new UJ in the day and I can...

The seal around the window in the rear door of my '91 110 Defender is all falling apart and growing mold, so I want to take the glass out and give the whole lot a good clean up. Before I take everything apart and possibly make a cock up Is the seal around the window a proper rubber seal, and if...

It's okay Buster, don't worry about it I've just found the one you did as well as your other bits and pieces. Many thanks for all your help

Many thanks for that Buster, do you have one of those photo things for replacing the track rod and track rod ends as one of the track rod ends has excessive play as well so I've ordered a new track rod tube and two ends (1 x RH thread & 1 x LH thread) I'll leave the steering box to the...

Long time browser, first time poster and fairly new to the greasy bits of Land Rovers. My 1990 110 Defender 200TDi has failed it's MOT on a leaking power steering unit as well as a offside draglink ball joint with excessive play, amongst other little bits. I'll be purchasing a reconditioned...
