Not a resprayed white G reg from Wales was it??

So took the Defender to LRS Specialist in Hull to check the oil leak, I must say these guys have been around 40 years -anyone in East Yorkshire with a Land Rover issue 110% check out going here, Mark knows his stuff , his Dad started the garage 40 years ago, brilliant Land Rover family business...

No Brian Andrew Andersons on the forum with a L reg 90???

Yes the brass inserts seem to be either falling out or grabbing the screw and not allowing it to turn almost cross threading but not :/ I've got 3 out of the 4 long cowl screws that go in the brass inserts but there not having it, do drop some loctite in the plastic hole where the brass inserts...

Now sipping kenmore whisky and ginger ale after a weekend of Defender "Do a simple job but cause a 3 hour catastrophe" :) most notably trying to fit the steering cowl back together then somehow moving the full brass indicator unit and the steering column coming loose! But now all is well :)...

Sorted it thanks guys! I was been a dohnut - all new pedals now fitted. Onto fitting the new wing mirror covers now :)

Looks like Im missing the plate :/

This is the set. I currently have nothing on my throttle just the metal arm leading into the bulk head. Looks like I’m missing something to attach the pedal to?

All my pedal pads are pretty worn, so I ordered a new set from britpart which have arrived today and just look like plastic squares basically??? The accelerator arm is just the piece of metal, is there supposed to be something that wraps round the metal accelerator arm to fit a plastic pedal pad...

nice find :)

Well I was going to fit my new gloss black wing mirror covers and cant fathom how to swap them off? Do you take the rubber seal off on the mirror side?? Or is it a full wing mirror arm off jobby

As above swapping out for a cubby £60 collection East Yorkshire

Yes I maybe - PM your details Im in Hull so hopefully not to far away?

All the clips have broken on one side of the binnacle so Im gonna get the metal raptor housing and binnacle. Its just under where the stalks are and the ignition couple of missing screws.

Missing a load under and around the steering column and ignition area, does anyone know the M size? Or give any pointers if you cant just buy a pack of 10/20?

Not sure yet seen lots of threads, seen the self spray ones and also the Dina something that you can paint on? Im not sure what would be best - painting will take longer but can get into all the nooks and crannys. Gonna do a bit of research on this one I think.

Was hoping someone will have one lying around somewhere :)

This is what Im after...

Took her to the local garage to give her a good jet washing, cleaned all the crud off underneath and got back - guess what... no leaks as yet? It did have a minor oil leak on the last MOT which was fixed and also a power steering pump leak (new pump fitted nov 2020) so could possibly be old oil...

Sounds too easy for a Defender repair......lol Nice one :)
