    40 year Mot exemption

    If you know your vehicle registration date then post it. Are you trying to renew the tax? Has the mot expired? with that info I can then probably answer this!

    Battery cable clamp to kill switch

    I have never seen or fitted a battery isolator onto a positive battery cable. They should only go onto the negative cable. If you fit on a positive there is an increased risk of shorts with bare connectors.

    P38A Penetrating fluid -balls

    Try cleaning the threads that are showing. I use a dremel thing with a little wire brush on it. The better you can clean the threads the easier it will come apart. In general I find that penetrating oil just makes it easier to start with, but rust on the threads will still make it bind up.

    caster correction plates

    Just buy the ones with the 16mm holes. They will fit both. If you worried about centralising on the bolt or pin or whatever it is, use a bit of rubber pipe. Once you tighten the u bolt it won’t move.

    Tube valve sizes!!!

    If it is old style then most likely TR15. The TR13 is smaller diameter, like a standard tubeless rim size. The others are mainly bent or bolt on.

    Tyre pressures

    If the pressure is too low for how you are using your vehicle, the tyres get too hot. So check them. Put your hand on them as soon as you stop, occasionally. There are many reasons to adjust the pressures. I run with standard suspension and generally down rural, bumpy uneven roads, so run around...

    Any advice appreciated EX MOD tax/mot exemption

    It depends! What is written on the front of the V5 - assuming it is a fairly modern V5. It should say something about the vehicle not being new when registered and a declared date of manufacture. It would then have an age related plate, so probably T at the end? If no comment and probably on a H...

    235x85 tyres

    Just a little bit of info about the torque on the HD rims: If you put a straight edge across the back of any steel wheel face where it bolts to the hub. You will find it is concave, when looking at it from the back. A steel wheel is designed like this. When you tighten the wheel nuts to the...

    Military door top glass rattling like a Mo-fo!

    Yes, You need to take the window locks out completely. Takes a bit of wiggling. Then the screws in the bottom of the channel if they are still present. Then the rivet each end. Both windows then come out attached to the bottom runner. They are on like a T track. The plastic bits will be visible...

    Military door top glass rattling like a Mo-fo!

    Well….. No3 is the bottom bit that the 2 windows sit/slide on. No7 and No8 are the bottom metal bits attached to the windows. No9 are the little plastic bits - these are fixed to the underside of the metal slide attached to the windows. Pat number: MTC6221 Hope that makes sense.

    Military door top glass rattling like a Mo-fo!

    The bottom slides have 6 little plastic runners, 3 per window. These wear out. Tell tale is scratches in the bottom channel. Bit of a job to replace, and they are a ridiculous price at 3+ quid each. But if they are worn, changing the felt won’t stop the rattle when the window is open. oh, the...

    land rover hcpu v5

    So, you will need some kind of proof you aren’t trying to register a vehicle you have just nicked and took the plates off. If you are buying from the company that bought it new, and they are some proper company registered as a business. Then you could be ok with a headed letter from them saying...

    A question for the military landy boffs & anyone curious.

    Probably no real negative to leaving it. Just it looks a bit weird to some. If you can get to the inside tube, then you could plug it then it will keep any water or cold air out for sure.

    land rover hcpu v5

    It all depends what information you have on the vehicle. If you have proof of age of vehicle and a really good story why it has never been registered then it could be ok. If not you will need to get them. What is the excuse for it not being registered already?

    A question for the military landy boffs & anyone curious.

    A pipe would have connected to both batteries then gone behind the side panel to the back of this. They are a real bugger to remove and plug the old hole.
