Thanks for the reply, glad you had a better experience. I have contacted David who has tried to distance Beaumont Gearboxes from JKB as much as possible.

It's unlikely, the masters are easy enough to open and inspect, even just for interest rather than to fix. Does sound the like push rod isn't fully returning though.

Feel free to share or point others in this direction if they're considering buying from either of those companies.

Evening all, I've been sitting on this for a little while now but though I'd share my experience with JKB gearboxes. Image below is of the eBay listing, selling reconditioned Series 1, 2 and 3 gearboxes. For search engine results: JKB gearboxes Joeb Hygate-Beaumont Lumb Lane, Halifax. HX2 7UJ...

Of course, like any jack it should be rated enough for the weight of the vehicle and regularly inspected but no reason why it wouldn't be safe to use. A large black of wood to take up of the gap and give the bottle jack a stable platform is also a good idea.

Any complete 200 tdi engines?

M8000 24v winch with steel wire rope. Solenoid pack isn't working but I've e bench tested the winch directly on the motor and runs in bother directions. I haven't investigated why the solenoid isn't working, could simply be loose wires. As per the pictures, paint is a little flaky but workable...

Afternoon all, I've got a set of used K02s for sale if anyone here is interested. LT245 70 R17 Load rating 119 116S Date code 4517 Tread between 8 and 9mm They're used but perfectly usable, blocks are a little cut up by stones etc but lots of life left in them. £300, located in Bournemouth...

Shocks and springs aren't the problem here, bump stop or tyres are.

You won't get any extra air in the cylinders by holding down a throttle connected to the fuel pump.

That's great but doesn't mean the freewheeling hubs are working correctly and the transfer box isn't in 4wd.

I took a different approach and added an electric inline blower, taking air from behind the radiator and straight into the heater box. Cheap and easy, good ram-air effect and even with the bikini roof on I still feel the warmth. Series 3 109 - 1973 - Full Restore

Perhaps setting up tax via Direct Debit like you can know plays a part. For example he started taxing the vehicle on a monthly direct debit on that date in 2020, cancelling when stolen cancels the direct debit plan and reverts back to that date.

I haven't, but... Bought a refurbished (apparently.. but that's another story) from a seller but one of the many problems with it was the transferbox sump leaked terribly. About 600ml over 3 days. Bought a Roamer Drive billet sump plate and fitted up with the new (supplied) gasket and bolts...

You could try uprooting the moss and replanting it in another location, it seemed to work for the Chinese.

Just 3 more to find https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NEW-Genuine-Land-Rover-Defender-127-130-Series-ANR1534-PM-Wheel-Rim-16-x-6-/255361176741?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49286&mkrid=710-127635-2958-0

Looks like it's there, just bent toward the camera.

Quite possibly, but no signs over overheating at the expansion. I'm certainly not suggesting doing it or going to keep running it like that, just an observation I thought I'd share. Although I'm sure there would have been hot spots, I can't see the temperature in a common water jacket varying...

Agreed, thermal convection and a decent heater matrix saved the day, I'm just quite surprised how stable the temperature remained.

Afternoon all, Out for a drive on Saturday morning when I heard a thump and my charge light came on. Knew immediately it was the fan belt letting go so pulled over and let the engine cool for 30 mins or so. Luckily I was only 15 mins from home so set off again gingerly, heating on full whack...
