Cheers for that. They don't give a conventional stepped pattern as I was expecting, are they HID lamps without the stepped low beam plate? Or is it just a flat/stepless hi/low beam plate? An your other post about welding up the sills - nice work and a good idea to replace the plastic trim with...

@BoabCarney , after reading your thread through the other day I've been trying to find it again for bloody ages to ask how the projectors look if you've refitted them?! I'd planned to do the same with mine a year or two back but as ever I've not managed to get around to it yet! Does the...

Dinitrol is very good, but go better and use Bilt Hamber Dynax S50 in the chassis and any cavities and Dynax UB on any exposed areas. Or if you really want it to rot away then squirt waxoyl in! :D

Hmm... that's an idea, we've got a tractor so I could tool around with the bucket for a bit - it just seems like adding something to bind all the loose shizz might be a good idea before getting a whacker plate on it..

Sort of - that's a open ended barn which only gets driven into/out of once or twice a week by a little Terios. The drive curves around the side of the barn, though these holes are in front of it and the drive curves slightly there, the corner is just out of shot (bottom left) like this: I'm...

I've gotta say that doesn't look very bad in the photos! It's much more lumpy when you see it in person...

Thanks for the replies chaps - I've got a couple of pics of the area: As you can see the bigger holes are on the right, (full of water/ice today) which is actually a corner, so they get the most wear. Sorry the pictures aren't that great, it was -5c this morning and I was shivering and teasing...

I like your work - what have you used to repair the swivel with please?

OK, so not landy related except that I drive/park my landy on it ;) but hey ho.. My drive needs some attention as it's starting to look like a very short green lane! There are 4 or 5 holes that range from 2' around to 3'x6' and about 2"-4" deep. There's a gravel/hardcore base and a thin top...

Insa Turbo what - Which ones? They make lots of different models... I had some Insa Turbo Traction Trak (BFG Trac Edge copy) and they were very good, but didn't last very long and were incredibly noisy for a tyre that wasn't as aggressive as say the Insa turbo Special Track. I've now gone over...

Er, Well yes, only 50w compared to 200w... :rolleyes: Probably similar brightness etc. Did you know that one wheel weighs a lot less than four wheels?!

That's not really the case - a 100w led still draws 100w just like a 100w halogen - you just get a lot more light in that 100 watts! I'm no sparky but I've seen some terrible wiring on LED light bars, work lights and spots, but people just tend to say "oh it'll be alright, its only an LED...

JM wouldn't that also cause an issue on selecting other gears, or am I barking up the wrong tree?

Hmm... Reading around a bit more and thinking back to the 'incident' when the transfer box imploded I think it probably has caused the gearbox problem, as the transfer box seized pretty solid as I was driving at about 35. Or, maybe it was the gearbox layshaft death that triggered the implosion...

Well I've had a cursory google looking for info on how to check the layshaft extension, but all I've found seems to be: 'Why can't I select 5th & reverse? - well your layshaft extension has sheared and you need a new gearbox...' :eek: What! Can anyone advise how I go about checking the...

Well you're new around here... Give it some time! :D

Just paint it with aerosols (it'll come out matte or satin at best, anyway) and then if its crap then it's only cost you less than £20 to try :)

Thanks, will do - what am I looking out for though? :)

Chaps - as mentioned briefly in an update to my last thread, after I replaced my dead LT230 with a good used one, it's really difficult to get into gear when changing to 5th or reverse. It feels as if there's a bit of sponge/foam/some other ****e wedged in the way and the gear lever needs a bit...

Ok as a bit of an update, I swapped the transfer box for a good one last week and as if by magic the problem just 'goes away'... One odd thing though is that although I've not done anything at all to the gearbox, it's now quite hard to get into 5th and really hard to get it into reverse -...
