OK I've had a good look about and despite lots of posts on breaks I can't find an answer. I'm slowly upgrading all the bits of my Landy that I can afford to do as I can afford them if that makes sense. With a little one coming along in the next month I'm wanting to make the Landy as safe as I...

Not really we have very little up here, just a load of ice. Turns out those south of here are getting tons of the stuff. My mate in Wilmslow is compleatly snowed in. Mind you he has a focus!

You sound just like me. I've managed to need to go to "Tecso" every day since the snow satarted. I just fitted hevey duty trackrods and an upgraded streering damper and thought I would take it out for a spin. hadn't intended to actually spin off the road and into a ditch but thats what you...

yea OME are expensive but I'd rather by once and get it right than save a bit of cash but have it FUBAR in a years time. Guess you need to get what you feel is right for you, one guarantee is that you will always get a range of opinions on here.

I've been looking at this as well and from what I can see they give a very firm ride and are not the longest lasting of parts. OME seam to get good all round reviews.

well I have obviously been a very good boy and did write my list cause Santa is my new best friend with lots of toys/parts/bits to add to Chugchug. Just got to wait for the feking snow to melt now so I can get out and do some work. On the flip side though how much fun is snow when you have a...

Just notice this is like the oldest post about, apologies!!! must have hit the wrong button.:doh: I had this exact same problem with my 90. Local garage fitted a new seal, replaced the shoes and cleaned out the handbrake housing. I had a sticking handbreak in reverse which meant every time...

wicked, job sorted for the weekend then!! thanks.

Afternoon Very helpful stuff, one questions (may be stupid so apologies if so) what is backlash, is this simply movment of the arm?? thought I would check before attempting.

Could send you some vasaline, might help you slide on somthing, not sure about rocks...

Spoke to the garage again about what welding needs done on the bulkhead and started to recover the interior trim in black vinyl. Originally Posted by SteveRat How do you stop the toe-rags knicking the whole detachable tow bar assembly? Padlock through the end of the pin? Answer - Fit a gun...

Hand brake would make a lot of sense as it is only happening when its been applied and then released, if I rive forwards and presumably release and seizing it doesn't happen. I'll check this out at the weekend and let you know the out come. Thanks for the response, lets hope this fixes it.

knocking box rears its ugly head again.....:( With the help of you guys here I thought I had it cracked (not literally) but its still hapening. If its been driven in a forward gear for a wee while its all good and smooth but if I go into revers after she's been sitting still I'm still...

sweet, thanks again! Going to sleep well tonight. I will be doing as much myself as I can, thats why I bought it. I've go an A4 out side where I need to take it to the garage to chance a headlight. I thought screw that so I got my 90. That and the fact I have always wanted one. A dream come...

Only done about 15 miles and none at speed so hope it hasn't done any damage. The guy gave me a list of other work that needs done, track rod arms, ball joints but I'll d that myself just the box I was really worried about.

I think I actually love you, difflock it was, just reversed it round the block and no judders jerks or otherwise. Dam garage!!!! Thank you soooooooo much, just made my weekend. It may have been an obvious one to you but I never even thought to check.

You sound like my wife but your probably right, just don't like someone breaking my baby, if I do it its bad, but I can beat myself up about it but when someone else does it well!!! I'll go and double check the difflock and have a word with the garage tomorrow, see what happens. Will let you...

It didn't seem to have the problem before I took it to the local garage for a check up, Mother F*&king B*$£@ds, F*&@£$g suppost to know what they are doing. Is there any solution other then new box??? please some one have a solution.
