    Steve's disco 2 rebuild

    Evening all, did some work on the bumper today, mitred the ends and cut some corner bits which still need finishing off. I've decided to use the standard bumper lights so measured and cut out the holes for them (measured once and cut about 3 times to get it right :D). Then made some brackets to...

    Landrover Defender 90 200Tdi - Brakes/calipers , Radio electrics and security

    Funnily enough that's the ones I had to change. Fitted standard ones in the end If you go for poly bushes, there are different grades (hard to soft). I think the colour had something to do with it (red being hard and black being soft, but don't take that literally, just an example). My 90 had...

    Landrover Defender 90 200Tdi - Brakes/calipers , Radio electrics and security

    If you are going to rebuild your original calipers then I would get some cheaper ones for now. look on ebay, I just bought some for my disco with a 2 year warrenty. Make sure the bores havnt rusted up in your calipers before you get the rebuild kit, might be a waste of money/time if they can't...

    Landrover Defender 90 200Tdi - Brakes/calipers , Radio electrics and security

    Best to look on YouTube for how to do electrolysis rust removal, it's very easy to do. Basically get a big plastic builders bucket (has to be plastic) and fill it with enough water to cover the metal part. Add some washing soda to the water. You need a sacrificial piece of metal (I used a bit of...

    No Land No Rover

    Hi, main things to check is the bulkhead, both footwells, top corners where the windscreen hinge is and around the door hinges for rust. Rear of the chassis tend to rust so check where the main chassis rails meet the rear crossmember. But check all of the chassis anyway for rot. All this can be...

    Cranking but not starting

    That black box under the passenger seat on chassis is the air compressor for the rear suspension air bags, I'm guessing you have coil springs on the back axle? As beneagles says your ace will more than likely be disabled as I would expect a warning light would come on if there's no oil in the...

    Landrover Defender 90 200Tdi - Brakes/calipers , Radio electrics and security

    Pretty much same as bleeding brake calipers, bleed nipple is on the slave cylinder. As for changing wheel studs, I've only done them on a car once, I cut the stud off flush to the hub then hammered the splined piece out with a punch, pressed the new ones in with a vice. Not saying this would...

    Landrover Defender 90 200Tdi - Brakes/calipers , Radio electrics and security

    For the battery isolator switch I had it mounted behind the drivers seat on the bulkhead (only as I relocated the batteries behind the seats) but some people put it on the seat box where the battery is located. I hid a switch in the cab for the stop solenoid, can be put anywhere you want such...

    Cranking but not starting

    Did another search and found this. This is how I bled the fuel on mine when I put the engine back in on mine. Although I put in a Jerry can worth of fuel. Crank sensor could be at fault maybe?

    Cranking but not starting

    Check the harness by removing the red plug on the ecu which is located behind the battery. Look at the pins on the plug to see if it's covered in oil. Not sure how to check fuel pressure.
