I’m not dead on a twin turbo just I’m open to any turbo really but I want to do something Custom just because i enjoy working on engine and I’ve spent the last couple months welding the frame and Im sick of it just want a challenge. And yeah I will have to get someone to map it I might email TD5...

I want to upgrade the turbo on my td5 I want to do something a little different than just a VNT or hybrid. I saw a couple old threads about using a turbo out a sprinter van. I was thinking maybe something like that. There is a set of twin turbos for a 4l iveco diesel going cheap on Facebook I...

Glad I learn about this anyway gotta change my cluch soon so I will definitely be changing that too lol

This was definitely coming from the gearbox sounded like one of them straight cut race car boxes lol

Didn’t end up buying the discovery anyway surprise surprise the chassis was rotten despite the guy saying he’d had it all done. Also suspected the problem was bigger than just the spigot Bush as you had to force it into gear and the noise was extremely loud. Even made a noise just driving along

I’m assuming if it is the bush they must have damaged it or something right because why would a old one what was fine before as far as I know start causing problems immediately after a clutch change

I think he said more of a screaming noise actually . It could be something else I’m really not to sure.

Hopefully going to see a d2 tomorrow it’s cheap but it’s just had the cluch changed and the owner said whoever did it forgot to change the spigot bush and it grinds when pressing the cluch . I’ve done enough work on discos that I can do the job myself but my bigger concern is that I’ve got a 1...

I’m converting my d2 over to pin pin style +5 inch defender shocks how would I determine the hight I need to weld on the top shock mounts to get the best out of them Many thanks

Might do some green lanes but it’s mostly for pay and plays. I don’t mind if is chews through axles really I’ve got plenty of spares and yeah I have a 1.4 transfer case out if a defender to go in it. It just comes down to cost , space and experience really as to why I did a trayback as much as I...

.

I’m already 80% done mate tray is build and everything. 4 inch lift is the lowest I could keep it and still have good clearance for the 36 inch wheels even with that I’m still going to have to bash the bulkhead in with a hammer to stop the wheels scrubbing at flex. Not looking to change my build...

It’s a off roader but I will occasionally drive it on the road

Currently building my one of my d2s into a trayback it’s getting near to completion now but I’m not sure what to do about the rear suspension. The front is sitting +4 inch and I want to keep it the same in the rear. Currently got +2 inch springs in the rear which sit at about +4.5 inch but are...

Got it running Purged the fuel and a bit of break cleaner in the intake and it fired up now it starts first turn of the key thanks for the help

Ok mate so I put the ignition on pump the throttle 5 times then the EmL light will start flashing and that’s how I know it’s working ?

I think is most likely the fuel syetem I did Purge it and I could hear air escaping at the Pressure regulator. I pressed the pedal 5 times so the pump would stay on and left it for 10 minutes.

Yeah I learnt the security codes and set it to manual the immobiliser is off I can hear the fuel pump and it cranks that’s good news then if I don’t need to buy a another bcu someone told me I had to match the codes

My 99 d2 has been sitting for over a year I took the bcu off for another truck I want to run it before I take the engine out as a spare but the only bcu I’ve got is off a 03. My understanding is it won’t run with that bcu. However is thought I would give it a go before buying the correct one. To...

Thanks mate Coil springs looking real tempting right now :D. I don’t think it’s related but half my dash lights aren’t working either so I won’t see a warning light on the dash anyway.( probably just a fuse or something I haven’t looked into it at all yet) I will start by looking for damaged...
