those i never put on in the end, didn't want to risk it lol

I got one too in my post about John Lewis. I had typoed "the" as "shte". Dunno wot you did wrong!

Even to hot for the cat

Sort of. Tratter is a Ferrari in overalls, FL is something in pink hot pants. Both have the same green oval.

Technically not true as when building a kit car I make up lots of stuff out of new steel. Also true if I do anything for the house. But yep, avoid welding cars as much as possible and if forced then anything that will make a decent patch gets...

Youll have to stick with the Borg warner transferecase because of the left hand drop propshafts. The LT230 is right hand drop. If you going to take P38 axels use the P38 air suspension too, the P38 air suspension is set up for solid axels while...

Are thay land rovers 😦

He bought the wrong Landy? :vb-headbang:

Went a road trip to get a noo hydraulic hose made up the machine decided it needed a pee. 🤣 🤣 Had to go & get a 4 wire one as a 2 wire aint strong enough, tis raining so polishing the boat has halted.

err @Hippo whats your angry face for ???

Dodgy illegal number plates included too.... :D

and here was me last week making the exhaust

Did a thing.. converted to m57n2 in the end with a zf 8hp70x gearbox

2005 TD5 still on the original pads and still plenty on them

I've seen a few more jobs to do while I was under there. There's a crack in the exhaust pipe near the rear silencer and the brake pads are getting thin. The exhaust was a stainless one which I fitted in 2012, so that's thirteen years it's lasted...

it sounds to me like you want to fit a RRC body onto an L322/L405 or similar then customise the interior

Put the rrc body onto an 80's G wagon chassis and running gear with the 6cyl mercs diesel engine and gain the hydraulic diff lockers as well. That thing would crawl up the side of a house if it could 🫵😎

Yeah i think the TDV8 had the 8HP. This is what i would do B57 engine along with its 8HP transmission out of a G05 BMW X5 and all its electronics that go with it, mainly the ECU. Design an adaptor plate to fit the borg warner transfercase to the...

I got a "free" brand new delongi (spelling) dehumidifier, I left it under my boat as the lad was shampooing the carpets & interior of my boat, he was cursing me as it weighs 35kg & had to get it up a ladder & into the boat. Apparently its an air...

You dont need to understand this as you only weld rusty old donkeys 🤣🤣

So, I had asked W to ring her credit card peeps about this money paid in error to Axa-Schengen. It took her two gos as the first eejit just went through a mountain of security poop and then cut her off. But the 2nd guy was decent, saw the problem...

OK, I found this and am not much the wiser! https://www.damatech.com/en/Prehardened-steel/Hardox/Hardox-Welding

Lucky there, my '87 Vogue has LR developed anti-roll bars retro-fitted by one of it's two previous owners, sacrificing (allegedly) only half-an-inch of suspension travel, for those few owners that would have actually ventured off-road ;)

I had a RRC it would be better to spend the money on re-building as standard best and most reliable vehicle I have ever had appart from a bit of roll at speed round corners

I confess to not being an engineer, but don't have to look far to find a level of irony in your plan. As I understand it you want to take the best Range Rover model the old Rover Co (latterly LandRover) ever made, renown for it's ability...
