To get DVLA information register as a car park owner. You'll get details no bother.

Oh no! Mine had a couple of small bits in the same places, seems like a common place to start rusting through. For me it went from investigating why there was a circular plate screwed onto the crossmember, to cutting some holes, buying a new...

Thought I’d sand down a couple of spots to give the rear a lick of paint and uncovered a rust collection. Bugger.

Started at £4500, minimum “buy now” price allowed by eBay was £5600, someone grabbed it. They don’t know this yet but I found some more bits & pieces in the garage today I’m throwing in! I did say it came with some spares!

Traffic Circle if you don't mind. They do have them, but not very many. ;)

Morning All. :D Another scorcher for us I think. :) Might go out on the trike later. Have a great day. :D

Tis already hot out there. Fill up yer burd baffs.

Mornin Warm and sunny Watered me plants early Cleaning Freelander boot area today, get it nice for the road trip, noticed a handy 12v socket in there for me kettle :p Chinese shooting stick arrived this morning, better quality than expected :)...

...took the Mini out for a blatt round the town, no problems noticed. Will check the plugs later. Also took the trike out and did a 10 mile loop around Canvey Island in the sunshine. :D That's twice in just few days. :)

Knee a bit better then Dan? 👨‍⚕️

Dunt the pedalling hurt your legs after a couple of miles?

Yes, just a little. As long as I don't go crazy with the PUSH effort it seems to cope. :) Weird seeing as one day last week I could not walk up or down the stairs on the right leg. As the trike is e-assist I am not having to do all the work I...

The e-assist is a big help without it I doubt that the cycling would be possible. But, I do my best to keep the e-assist level low enough that I am also putting effort into the system against the resistance so that my muscles get a bit of work to...

@Matt Poiner Had a Quick Look for you. Like mine & comes with the ends to connect pipe onto

B918 vas 1985 v8 petrol

You will regret only doing a section, cut it all off & do it properly. There is more prep than welding.

The entire day, apparently 😱

Have to ask @MGT …

Been staring at rubber grommets for too long...Google is great but the amount of slop served up leaves a needle in a haystack type search. They are close enough. And cheap enough to have a punt and see. And...the brackets are still at a point...

Tbh it is no bad thing. Letting the torque spin out protects the driveline to an extent The issue with the m57 is that it makes a lot of torque very low down I have put a pneumatic centre diff lock in but I doubt I will ever use it unless I get...

Undo that nut on the top, in the middle, the bottom and canister will drop out ... Heres what a new one looks like ... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/222520618352 Other sellers exist

Get a V8 110 of an 85 landrover.(if you need a reg number to order I can give you mine) . same shape as the facet(barrel type) and a lot cheaper. Mounted mine in the engine bay by the brake servo. I do forget to turn it on some days & it still...

I've seen this mysterious starting behaviour before. The Landy concerned had two bad segments on the the starter's commutator. This means a lottery when going for a fresh start, as it depends on where the motor stopped rotating the last time it...

Already done ..just putting feelers out in all directions lol

Who are we ignoring?

I was just replacing those ones with black poly bushes as I knew I'd be struggling to replace like for like without a press etc.

Progress so far... Air box etc out of the way. Upper intake manifold off. Lower intake manifold, coil packs, fan, belts, pulleys, coolant hoses and rocker covers etc. Heads off. The problem cylinder, all liners look and feel ok for...

Look on fleabay. Are yours the same size as the LR standard bracket?

Finally got enough bits together to re-fit the rear wheel carrier. Forgot how heavy the wheels are when I had to lift it back on though 😂

How about putting board on top of the seats ?(either on the seat part or back rest) Put a few uprights to support this. Make it so it folds in the middle or in 2 pieces (then You could slide it onto the floor for storage)
