It seems when people are talking about
Mods on aus they worry an awful lot
About impairments made to the turning circle, steering and ride.
If these members are that worried about these things should they not be in a modern 4x4. Leave the old girls for us MEN who don't care about that and drive...
Hi guys, I'm more into fixing my series than the mrs disco- but what about this! She reports a belt noise squeaking like loose fan belt. Then takes it to garage and they report nothing wrong (has gone by that point)
Next day gear lever is loose- only way I can describe it. No difference in...
Yep, just took my Perkins out! Slow starter?? 3.5 mins mine took!
I changed to td engine which included, moving mount on os, getting new exhaust section at front, wiring extended to ns for starter and alternator.
We had defender flywheel housing went straight into what was already there, we...
Ahem, that may be so in a 110 (although I never found it a problem!)
But I doubt it in a 90, and in my 88" I fly with it- just as fast as my mates tdi with series gearbox.
Will people stop slating these engines!!
All the above I need for my swb series 3, can anybody help? Cash waiting!! I'll arrange postage all you have to do is stick barcode on and leave hidden for collection dude. Any help greatly appreciated!! Located Devon.
Not only is the soa better for most offroading- bar perhaps side angles:-) but they also look awesome!!! A real head turner I think some- not all- people who slate them are jealous.
I'm taking mine to devon4x4 for the job as reading up its a fine thing toget steering and prop angles right...
Yay the baron! Yeah your overdrive lol. Think towing is especially bad for series drive trains when mated to the tdi.
Mate that td whistles like a bird and flies like one too! Can't wait to offroad her in feb:-) what do you think about Spring over axle conversion? Be hench then with 35's!!
My truck is about to go on the road in a week when exhaust and some small wiring is done. But we had to weld the rhs engine mount and make a bracket for the series mount that side to fit in.
The 15j and 19j are essentially the same engine so if you have a NA in there already should pop right in...
I'm talking 19j here! 85 Hp not too much for running gear to handle. Mine is just finished and runs a treat!! Just wondering how many others have tried this brill conversion!?
