    Roughly what's it worth?

    I've got to the point where I can no longer afford to keep two Landrovers, thinking of keeping my Disco and parting with my Series 3. I don't really know what it would be worth. Any advice would be appreciated

    What is a Series 3 worth?

    I'm reluctantly thinking of selling my 1977 series 3. Now I realise that it's difficult without seeing it, but I'd like some idea of what it's worth. The tax has run out. It has a couple of months mot. It's not been getting much use for the past 2 years. Until 3 years ago it was in regular...

    Wiring and relays

    Can anyone shed some light on my problem? Some wires have been cut on my 94 300tdi. They come through the bulkhead on the o/s, under the washer bottle. There is a run of 9 wires. 2 orange/black, 2 yellow/black, black, green/black, red/black, all the same thickness, then there are two slightly...

    Brake drum retaining screw

    I wouldn't bother replacing them myself. In theory, they hold the drum on when a wheel is off, but how easy is it to take a drum off when you pull it? Mine have always needed a bit of persuasion, so they'd be unlikely to fall off while a wheel is off.

    Non start

    I have a problem with my 300tdi. While grinding to find some good metal in the n/s inner wing/bulkhead area, some wiring that comes through a gromet in that area which I had tied back, but stupidly not well enough came adrift and the disc went through it. Having connected the wiring back...

    Front Wheel Cylinders

    Thanks. That's what I feared. What would be the easiest solution? Would it be to take the whole backplate off? Will that entail taking the hub apart?

    Front Wheel Cylinders

    Can someone give me some advice, please. I need to change the o/s wheel cylinder on my 1977 series 3, but don't seem to be able to find a socket to fit the retaining nuts. I've tried metric, also AF. Does anyone know what size they are supposed to be?

    Free Wheel Hubs

    I'm don't think that my fwhs are locking, as I don't seem to have 4wd. I freed the selectors that stick out of the front of the transfer box a couple of months ago, and thought I'd solved the 4wd problem that I had then. The knob that changes between lock and free works as normal. On this knob...

    Four wheel drive not working

    Thanks for the advice, I hope it's fixed. Red lever wasn't fouling. I removed dust cover enough to get to selector shafts, smothered them with oil and managed to get them moving, let them soak for 1/2 hour, after which I pushed them in and let them slide out under spring pressure several...

    Four wheel drive not working

    I needed to use 4wd today in my series 3, but found it's not engaging - yellow lever isn't staying down, and I've tried driving in low range, but 4wd still doesn't engage. After looking around online, I've stripped the floor out to get to the front of the transfer box. I've removed three bolts...
