That A frame cross member would have been replaced like for like. Even has the 4 holes for a bose unit (sometimes on range roves & early 110 for a self levelling devise) Later models use a tubular type for the rear arms. There are some nice...

Big day yesterday as Izzy's body came off. Couple of neigbours and the lady of the house press ganged into helping did the job: A pressure wash shifted the dirt and revealed the good bits and horrors in equal measure. The fuel tank has surface...

They are me fave animal. They are cheeky, naughty, inquisitive and exceedingly clever. They are well known as destructive and thieves! At work I check campervans between hires and 1 of the checks is that the armour we put on the roof wiring...

The internal bar doesnt really get in the way, if you have standads seats. Its rather annoying with Corbeaus/bucket seats. As for fitting doesnt take much longer to add the internal bar and obviously considerably stronger. Chat to SD if you get...

Only Saturday/Sunday for photos…the rest of the time I have to wake a braincell up

Your on speed dial 😉😁

Love the names of places . Bit like cheesefoot head

Now all my cages were for 90 or truck cabs so only had 1 hoop. Do 110 have the hoop behind the passenger or just the front? Just had a thought… @bankz5152 has had both he may have a bit more knowlage in designs (thanks for you help)

I reckon, if it comes to it, I'll just buy one new. What bothers me in this plan is that, a while back, I mailed an eBay seller who's (complete) cage had gone unsold (id not seen it, else I'd have bought it). He told me he couldn't get rid of...

Now worries. Happy to help. Happy building

@Hicap phill That’s it in and working 😁😁

Mines different, but the holes are there for the horn. That’s ideal thanks.

Aha I remember now, big rubber grommet. Is it lhd in Canada? I think it is. There should be a bleed nipple in the top of the slave cylinder next to where the flexi pipe goes into it. You might be able to undo from inside the engine bay with...

Depending on how good you are with a welder… get a kit form & build yourself. Now there are 2 ways. Front hoop across the front screen or up from footwell/bulkhead outrigger going rearward to the hoop behind the seats.then weld a straight tube...

Is there a grommet you can remove on the bulkhead/tunnel area to get to the slave?

Horn in location Uses these bolts to fix in place Looks like purple/black for the horn feed. Earth off the nut that hold the horn.

Interesting I put some rotten grapes out for the birdies. Naturally Mr and Mrs Rat wanted to get in the act. Then I noticed a young rat also making three what I can see. Now the fun part was a pigeon reaction normally was to move around or away...

Looking at the front.. Right hand side,attached to bonnet release slam panel,behind black grill. Held up by 6mm bolts. Feed is in the same loom as the lights/side light/indicator. You need a photo?

Thanks for the patience with this lad Stan, much appreciated. :) Having tried BPE5 plugs to no avail (except the introduction of pre-ignition) I did a few things. 1. I put the BPE6 plugs (cleaned up with a gas torch) back in. 2. I popped the...

Smother them in laxatives. The neighbours will moan about the crap and you have a solution…

Could have picked a better day than the hottest day of the year but hey ho 🤣 Replaced the wiper boxes, what a pig of a job! Drivers side was actually fine, passenger side SEIZED SOLID couldnt even move it with some 12" stilsons.. 🫥 Replaced...

Do they like skittles then? Not sure feeding them will help. 🤪

Over here, its these that do all the damage... Kea, they are the most amazing animal. Not the most beautiful, but they are awesome and the world's only alpine Parrot.

This was 2 minutes ago. Such a temptation.

Good point. I always fill until the pump stops itself. If it leaks during a partial fill that might help narrow the search for the leak. I'll try that today.

From a safety and elf perspective, wear some cushioning protective layer on your forehead. Cos when the diesel drops down into your eyes, your head will flinch up and hit the underbody. Alternatively, wear eye protection as that will have the...

A good fishing catapult and using skittle sweets as ammo would help then.

Find where the crows roost & knock a few branches down. Use long poles if you don’t/can’t use lead. They may move on if you do this a few times. Dangle a few CDs on string to see if that moves them on. Put a broom stick through the arms of a...

They never were, technically. My family name is Thomas, it's been in the family since new being used by my grandfather and his father as a recovery truck for their workshop in the village. So getting the sign-writing was just a throwback to them.

Spoke too soon... leak from the rear main seal, I assume. Engine oil from the flywheel housing, only a slow drip so too concerned at the moment. Obviously a new seal went on during the rebuilt, but it wasn't one of those fancy Teflon ones...
