Remember if your 90 is a Td5 (or newer) you will need a proper 1/2” drive 52mm socket rather than a box key which is fine for older models, as there is a lot more torque involved. I’ve ended up having to replace a cv and drive flange before, trying to get a disc off, as they were so solidly...

Are the rims the same offset though? You really need to take the wheels off and do the same measurements to the drums.

A battery is a battery lol, the battery in my V8 D1 was dying off rapidly and there was a scrapper Ka lying in my mates work yard, the battery was a teeny wee thing and the terminals were the wrong way round, blocked it up with a bit of wood and just managed to get the terminals on to do me a...

Sliding window latch is different too.

That’s all right on an old 90 tbh. I didn’t think the speedo was a testable item, or at least I think it used to not be, maybe that’s just for accuracy, but it makes sense that it not lighting up is a fail to me. If it was that in isolation, you may have got the pass, but the wee niggles add up...

And substitute rubber mallet with large ball pein....

I’m in Cathcart, work in Springburn. What took you to Oz?

Hullo from Glasgow

I highly recommend this for an impact wrench, for the money nothing can touch it, not as convenient as a cordless, but to get a cordless with the same grunt you will be at least 5 times the price. https://www.machinemart.co.uk/p/clarke-cew1000-electric-impact-wrench/

Sorry, when I looked earlier I only saw 3 pics and they were blurry, page couldn’t have loaded right on my phone..

Lol spell correct

Probably because they only look at the fails on a retest?

Nice, better pics would help surely tho.

I have one in a 2a in Glasgow, untried by me but I could check it isn’t siezed, known to have low mileage as it was the fire engine at the Singer factory. Free if you want to come and get it.

Hundred percent agree, I own V8 D1 and Td5 Defender, V8 is better in every way apart from it costs double to run, that may make deisel a better choice for many or even most people, but it doesn’t make it a better car. You pay your money you make your choice! :D

Ripped the dash out to bypass the spider that I wasn’t sure was going to be there, but fortunately it was.

You are welcome. Quick tip, if you are going to take it to a garage, spray the track rod end threads with a good penetrating oil like plus gas every day for a week first. When mine first needed done I took it to National who said it was seized and they couldn’t do it, so I’d need to free it off...

Getting the tracking done (by someone who knows how to do a Landy) will sort it. Usual culprit if your suspension hasn’t been messed with is a bend in the track rod after hitting something, in which case simply adjusting back to the correct toe measurement should straighten up your wheel. It...

In 90% of cases, the loom outlives the chassis!! :D

Lovely!!
