Cut the fecker off, had the same trouble with mine although I was fitting a new box so in the end I just left it on and bought a newun with the box ;) Saying that the bolt itself should come off fairly easily. got mine undone with a normal half-inch breaker bar.

Hey Jonny! Just found this thread and thought I'd let you know that your old 110 is MOT'd and back on the road as of friday! It passed second time round on chrismas eve but I'v had to wait till payday to get the tax n insurance sorted. Im gonna be posting an update thread in the fender section...

Looks familiar :P athough mine has faded somewhat since being painted

Im starting to think it might be the pump as i have tried all the normal methods of bleeding and have even taken it for a short drive but still no improvement :( Im guessing a loose belt wont help things? the adjustment is on the stops and the belt is still a bit slack.

Evenin all, I've been haveing an wee problem with trying to bleed the power steering on my 86 110 2.5D N/A, i.e. it wont.... Its a bit of a nightmare because the system is a bit pic n' mix as it wasnt fitted at the factory, the box is the later (metric) type with the square top and the pump is...

It made a rather satisfiying thud as it went over. :D

Looking at the .gov website if your DL has cat B on the back then you can have a trailer up to 750kg OR "As category B but with a trailer weighing more than 750 kg. The total weight of the vehicle and the trailer together can’t weigh more than 3,500 kg. The weight of the trailer, when...

Bugger, if i wasnt away next week id take you up on this but daddy is getting impatient and wants to finnish the welding asap :( so ill probably just be buying some box section to fit. In other news- Because british summer is in full swing work on the landy is going a lot slower than id like...

I suppose its more of a tidy up than a rebuild, The plan being to get it on the road and then have it as a rolling project and add every metal attachment possible.

Evening all, Tought Id make a bit of a project tread to show off my Landy:D So £1000 of hard earned 21st birthday money got me a 1986 110 van in need of tlc, the idea being to have some fun using it as my daily and giving me chance to give my Mini its much needed rebuild... Guess I didnt really...

The 7JJx 16 bit is the rim size, so yes they are 16"x7". The width always has a J and the diamiter either befor or after it. Dont ask me what the J stands for though because I havent the foggiest :D

Taa very muck! Ill have a crack at the diff tomorrow and report back with my findings. Also your avatar made me chuckle :)

Evening all, got my first landy home today and it has some issues. Its a 1986 110 N/A 2.5D Im not sure what gearbox it has in it. its also been sat for about 2 years First! The diff lock is stuck on which makes for some intresting driving, i think it was engaged when it was last driven and...

Well I finally got it home today and Im amazed to say that its had power steering fitted! bonus! I also gave it a wash for what looked like the first time in a year and unfortunately alot of green paint ended up on my driveway and you can see the red and brown which I think gives it...

Those photos are brill :) Ill be sure to keep you up to date on the repairs as she once more gets the love and attention she deserves :D

haha yep the door card is still ripped XD. I bought it from a garage in little haywood who were selling it on behalf of an older gent who had it stored since 2010. shes on 130k now and the replacement chassis needs a couple of small patches, a rear cross member, a few bushes here and there and...

I most certainly will have fun :) im guessing the chassis were replaced as theres no evedence of patching. and that amazing insied is all gone im afraid :( I hope you dont mind me asking a few questions as appart from some old MOT's i didnt get any history with it. the last mot i have with it...

haha no way? Apparently it was last on the road in 2010 according to the tax disc, the chassis need some welding but not compleatly replacing i dont think. also the back is empty and painted in grey. were you the one who painted it green?:D @simon- the mini is a 95 sprite spi on its last legs :P

Cheers all for the welcomes! The landy should be arriving at its new home around midday tomorrow. Its just the D4 engine I believe, I might look at doing a Td conversion depending on how it goes. The main task at the moment is to get it back on the road before the gearbox on my Mini blows up.

haha Well this one certainly has the rust, I think it may be in a race with my Mini to see which can decompose the quickest. i havent even got it home yet either!
