Just found out that they're different.

Are Disco 1 door springs the same as Disco 2 door springs?

It's got a dico 3.9 v8 and auto box fitted. Is there a chance that the defender transfer box was kept to give this hybrid lower ratio?

Sorry for the confusion fellas, my landy does 6-10 MPG not MPH. It pulls along at 60 mph quite nicely:). I think I took too much notice of my mate saying it was a low ratio box:o Took it out last night in the snow and it went though all of the gears smoothly in both high and low ratio.:) Thanks...

Cheers, I've changed it to MPG now. My last car was a RRC 4.2 v8 which I owned for 7 years, so I do know about filling 'em up:) I just wanted some advice on the auto box. Perhaps every thing is as it should be, but just feel new to me. It hasn't got a rev counter, which doesn't help.

There is also a problem with the air intake, so the consumption should improve when I get that sorted.:o

It's already got a 2'' lift:), I've got a set of 30mm spacers and some wider wheel arches, so I may be going down the bigger tyre road. Forgot to mention that it's a 3.9 v8, so it's 6-10 mpg at the moment:(:o

Hi, I've got a Defender double cab with on/off road spec, trouble is it's fitted with a low Ratio auto box, which is great for off road but not great on road:(. The question is, is there a way of making my landy more road friendly without fitting another box? Would Putting bigger tyres on help?

....where it goes into the block, so I replaced the brass olive which forms the seal, but the oil is still p#ssing out when the engine is running. The new olive was a 10mm and a tad loose on the tube,is there a slightly smaller one available? The oil level is correct;) It's a 1984 90 with the...

Thanks Mike, I'll be ordering one right now. ATB Scotty.

Hi, I've just bought a Series3 88 2.25 diesel, all I need to do now is get it started:o Which is the best workshop manual to get for this beast plz? ATB Scotty.

Hi, my name is Scotty, I've had a couple of R/R Classics. The one I drive now is a 1994 LSE and I've owned it for 6 years. I've also just bought a Series 3 88 2.25 diesel. It had been sat in a field for about 8 years, so I think I've got some work to do:D
