one more question - if all is not well - will a discovery front axle fit onto my 90 300tdi?

i struggled with the 14mm spanners and got the prop off, both uv joints on the prop are ok. I did notice just before it all ended badly that there was a big shake on the steering when going round the corner and there was a bit of a knock too... i'm going to attempt to drive it home tomorrow..

thanks again...

Thanks mate - so its the front prop i need to remove to get it home, any tips on removing this on a drive ?

Hello all, after taking my 90 out for only its 3 or 4th trip going down a green lane the drive stopped. Looked under the car to see that only the front driveshaft is turning. I stuck it in diff lock and the drive resumed, no noises but managed to limp it back to my in-laws.. i need to get the...

one side of the outriggers are done, more problems unfortunately - looks like it needs new shock absorber, track rod end and some welding - welding is done, so what should i do - replace all the socks and springs and go for a lift kit - or should i just go for OEM replacement shocks? I need the...

Can you pm me too... Ta

yeah true, be nice not to have bits falling off along the way ...

landy AKA Dennis is going to be fixed tomorrow, fingers crossed there isn't too much else to go wrong as im planning to drive it to Spain in October ..!

i did wonder that myself, that jack was one of 2 and axel stands, so i reccon i was safe. The problem appears to be where there have been front mudguards after the outriggers as i've had a good look over the chassis and its pretty good - its had the rear cross member changed at some point though..
