    When I did my son's panhard bushes I used some poly bushes and new bolts. Following week I fitted oem bushes, the poly bushes were a waste of time, you could see the axle moving from side to side.

    That's me! Seems like I forgot to update it. The drop arm, once off, was indeed knackered, the ball joint was both stiff and loose, if that even possible! Changed that and replaced the worse than useless Britpart steering damper which had been...

    Rolling coal… cyclist love that

    My son's has always done it. Strangely it also does it when overtaking cyclists 🤣

    Anaconda replied to the thread Car seats.
    We had a Maxi Cosi Rock-a-tot system which was a baby seat/pushchair/pram, then progressed onto a Maxi Cosi forward facing one, then a 2 piece booster seat thing. Seemed pretty good quality, 27 years ago though so I imagine things have changed.

    Not sure they do, but Halfrauds Kiddy seats are good quality and fitted by trained monkeys ...

    Personally I would go down to Mothercare, if they still exist, and try some for size.

    Interesting, thanks for updating 👍

    Just about to post that.

    That's poor, maybe it's a case to be answered by Land Rover.

    Anaconda replied to the thread Discovery 4 steering shudder.
    They should do but is there proof they are genuine Land Rover? Mind you even cheap ones should last longer.

    Must be the seal, tape it up until the noise has gone. Your lucky as my vent hinge pins have rusted solid.

    Did you renew the bolts with the bushes? I ask because I changed the panard rod bushes, made no difference until I changed the bolts. Steering damper, Steering box drop arm?

    Anaconda replied to the thread RE-Spray Series 2.
    I agree, just get it reliable and drive it. Once you have spent stupid money on getting the bodywork done you will never drive it.

    Anaconda replied to the thread Electric Windows on a TD5.
    The trouble with home grown electrics is in the mind of the PO they know what they have done, nobody else does though. Mind you mine are probably no better, infact half the time I can't remember what I have done! Life will be easier when your...

    Sorted !! dodgy connection with the car, thanks for the reply

    Anaconda replied to the thread Foxwell 510 Elite.
    Maybe you need to get one with dedicated Land Rover software on it? Our Foxwell will read ABS no problem but it has the Land Rover software on it. D2 is it?

    I have BFG AT and don't really notice any tyre noise. My son has BFG MT and a roof rack, that is noisy, I have to open the window to let the noise out!

    Anaconda replied to the thread Electric Windows on a TD5.
    Photo 1 looks like two fuses connected to the battery? Of course a relay can fail like anything else, usually they make a small click when operating. I presume you have a fair bit of additional electrical modifications. Have you taken the door...

    Had to remove the front radius arm to do some welding, yes more, so changed the bushes while I was there. While I was there I decided it would be a good idea to cut my thumb, burn my hand and arm and blob a bit of weld in my ear, oh well it got...

    Anaconda replied to the thread Electric Windows on a TD5.
    Look at your fuse box, looks to me as if there are some random red and blue wires hanging around in there. You have red and blue going to your window motor. Until you have a test light then it might be best just to leave it all alone before you...

    I fitted one of these https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/313276778283 Seems nicely made. Cheaper models are available, of course. If it's the TD5 you're buying for, it's a 16mm thread you want. I can't vouch for other species of Land Rover as I don't...

    Do you have a link to the drain tap?

    Just done an oil and filter change this morning. Now I've got such a high mileage engine I don't work out the service intervals by doing sums in my head. I do this in the spring and the autumn instead, so it happens about every six months. I've...

    You don't want to replace the drums if you don't have to, the chances of the new ones being round are slim.

    https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/177052890492 Something like that, Halfords will sell them I should imagine.

    Anaconda replied to the thread Electric Windows on a TD5.
    Bearing in mind these are not standard then without good info or photos it's very difficult to give you an answer which is relevant. Also it would be best to have the same topic in one thread. You HAVE to buy a multimeter or at the very least a...

    Thank you to everyone for your replies. It's now off. A combination of 2 blow torches and a larger hammer(sledge) and couple of well placed whacks on the face broke it free.

    I have never really had a problem getting the drum off the Ninety. Mind you it's usually because the hub seal has leaked and it's covered in oil anyway.

    Have you taken the rocker cover off and checked the core plugs? I was convinced ours was from short journeys etc. Once the rocker cover was off the underside was like looking at a margerine tub. Take the rocker cover off, clean all the gunk off...
