agreed, looks a little low to be the windscreen mount, some closer pics of the area would certainly be beneficial.

Exactly, that is all it is, very simple, just fold it in half and slide it in. Needs a bit of a wiggle, to get it over the top of the window glass but that is just a case of sliding the window back and forth either holding or moving the felt with the glass to move it though the channel relative...

Thank you for confirming, was also coming up with FRC8389 hence the question.

Look at the photo… I want to know what he was doing/what he hit to bend it like that!

Oh that is horribly priced! I use this for my front military doors LINK as was planning on using it it on the rear window if required. The frame channel should has a little lip on it that holds the felt into place rather than just being a simple u-channel, you can see it in the pics below, as...

Do you have some pictures? Having just removed and refitted the rear windows in my side panels for paint the top runner was felt as I noted I will need to replace it in the near future if it starts rattling. The felt is very easy to fit/replace, doesn’t require the window to be removed or...

A lot of places offering hot dip galv have a big disclaimer about the finish being rough, having imperfections, or having cold galv patches where bits have been ground down. Where is it from? I don’t think most of what you have shown is a problem. By the time you have seam sealed it, and primed...

My recommendation would be to fit LED rather than halogen, but if you are set on halogen I can have a rummage through my for sale boxes left over from the rebuild as I may still have a pair of hella front spots that were removed to replace with LED's if you are interested:

yes probably best, also maybe throw some prices up to give people a guide of what you are looking for. annoyingly was beaten to the engine fuse box and boost pin by @julianf but possibly interested in: 133 Defender turbo gauge and bits 173 Defender rotary rear wash wipe switch 188...

Post in the correct for sale/wanted section and you might get a response!

I am going to use my current roof as it doesn’t have the alpine windows or the sunroof. It still leaks, but from what I understand should be much less than the station wagon roof! (A replacement roof for this with no sunroof is on the shopping list) I was thinking about this, I am not sure I...

What is the standard 110 rear proshaft for an 89 110, is it FTC3245? I use RTC3291GKN for the UJ's, but one has started spinning in the yoke so now need a new prop.

I managed to do some painting over the weekend and final coat today as it decided to stop raining. The rear tub is now fully painted outside in the correct and best land rover colour of Masia red. I also managed to fit the toe plate having painted and soundproofed it. I am not particularly...

A very late update on this after top coating, update copied fomr my station wagon thread! These have been painted with the top coat but I do not think much of the special calliper paint, seems a bit soft, but time will tell. Cleaned, had new seals and stainless pistons, and had new brake pads...

And that’s why was asking. Glav steel would Be my go to. But there must be a demand for stainless otherwise they would make them but would be interested to know how well they last.

I did mine with a wire wheel on the angle grinder for the outside and a scotchbrite pad on the dremmel for the inside. Even if you got new ones my advice still stands. I would be pulling the new pistons out and replacing with stainless. You just don’t need seals and to refurb the rest of the...

I would also advocate for rebuilding your existing caliper with new seals and stainless pistons rather than just replacing. As otherwise you will be in the same position again in a few years time.

Are you talking about the hardlines? I always make my own so am no help with kit. But I know there are lots of variations with the brake balancing valve both in terms of type of valve and the positioning so you want to be very careful that what you get is suitable for your specific setup.

You will have to report back how you get one with that. My station wagon project will need a chassis and bulkhead. And I have not come across the stainless ones before. Thought the only options were galvanised.

Put a list up on here first to see if anyone is interested in parts you have. And then after that put on eBay/Facebook etc. that is what I am on the process of doing. However in doing that I am also realising that the market for parts is not what it used to be. And although I have boxes of parts...
