Struts depot on the net has a good section. The rear tail gate is the same design if it’s mesh or solid. Remove mesh and jut add flat Ali in its place. All fixings are the same.

Took me ages to find a new cover,came with the solid rear but no strut. Still have the mesh door incase the dogs go inside. When this is fitted I push the mesh right over onto the roof. My air intake is behind the headlight as it’s not a normal...

Here’s my special…love these as work horses . With the back on I can sleep in the rear on green lane trips

Should be under the bracket & nut & bolt to hold together

my link includes crank puller tool which doubles up for using to take the pump out without removing the belt.

Snot just the bearing its very rattly when you turn the output shaft ive left it in my scrap area in the yard.

Morning All. :D Another lovely day. :) Have a good time in the Sunshine. :D

Mornin Sunny again, watered plants and admired me stripey lawn 😊 A second hanging basket to put up today plus put a new gaiter on Freelander gearstick Sold the Mazda 3 yesterday so now down to 2 cars a truck, the Freelander and a motorbike 🤔...

Imagine what you would come back with if you went to the butcher?! Half a cow and a sore hole 😂

Happy sunny day…. Well after a week off my brain celll has shut down. Was away with friends seeing the Welsh countryside and sun. Now to sort my stuff out ready for work. At least the mrs will be happier with the quiet returning back to the...

Some days just work out like that......I spent 3 hours trying to take a wing off a classic car to get to an aerial.... seemed simple few bolts, inner wing needs to come off.....bit more the bleeding front fascia needs to come off...... bit more...

Well today I started off tidying up the rear door on my 110 with some checker plate... naughty I know but it looks better than holes! Went out with the dog and I could smell petrol after a while... pulled over and looked, petrol spraying...

It's £1.39 around these parts.

It could be factory built and quite rare. There was some weird **** around in the those days.

Oooo a 2B double cab… that petrol station has cheap fuel though

Spent a hateful day welding the chassis on the Ninety, another hateful day to look forward to tomorrow. Why is it when welding on a bit of scrap metal you get a lovely weld, get underneath with your head wedged between propshaft and exhaust and...

Done a couple of punch hunts in my old RRC.. it was fun! Mostly RTV trials on my 2A.. also huge fun, could never keep up with folks on the massive tyres though and the 90s turning circle

Been to plenty of pay & play days where I have not even bothered driving. By us they just put the motors in the deepest things they could find & winch all day. I’m sure none of these drivers could do a challenge event(punch hunt). & last a day.

Very sensible and considerate driving at all times. Note a couple of lanes situated on the 'gallops' it is actually sign posted "NOT" to follow the track but to spread out to avoid making ruts so not to risk injury to horses. Just thought I would...

Better to close part of the year of it keeps it open overall 👍

I’m guessing someone had too much time, a vivid imagination and some odd bits kicking around…

As a sort of update I emailed the Glass Chairman who via the local rep, has passed the video and as much info as possible to the relevant authorities. What comes of it, if anything, I do not know.

Check to see if the manifold gaskets are the same… If they are different look at the pictures to see the difference & indicates the model with the larger ports.

Ok, the transfer box seals hadn't been done so I would take that with a pinch of salt. Have a look at the cambelt housing front cover and see if that's been off recently. Cambelt only really becomes a problem if it snaps, most likely you will be...

Personally I would get it reliable and mechanical issues sorted first and then move onto the body panels. When was the cambelt last changed?

Could not agree more. I have had the conversation with friends that I don't know what came first the land rover or the things I do in my free time, but they compliment each other, and if I had a normal plastic car with carpets, within 6 months...

Few things I spotted… Move the spill rail return away from the throttle cable Where is the pipe from top of fuel pump(where the star boost pin adjuster is) ?

Always an awkward repair but more so when you’ve got to ensure it doesn’t knock out your lining up across the rest of the repairs. Test fitting is a must. Takes longer but I don’t want to find I’m out on my boot floor which would then knock on to...

One of the rear crossmembers had seen the metal moth generate fresh air where steel should be. Tonight's task was to fill it in with a small patch: And weld it back in. Only got access to arc at the moment and that can be a bit fierce on...
