    HD springs?

    11 leaf "diesel" front springs have an extra 70lbs spring rate compared to 9 leaf petrol versions. so these springs are fitted to 88" diesel and all 109s. on top of that, the same 11 leaf springs are specced right the way through to extra heavy duty (assume MOD) on the spring chart in the...

    Leaf springs short

    stupid question ahoy, but is the weight of the vehicle actually on the spring in that picture ? obviously the distance between eyes gets longer the more they are compressed flat... anyway, to give you an idea, rear springs should be 48 inches long, but thats if you laid a tape measure along...

    Series 3 Is it worth changing oil filter each time for a low use Series

    yeah modern engines run a bit cleaner the difference also is the oil itself, the sole purpose of modern semi and fully synth is to extend service intervals (i.e save money) but since oils secondary job is engine cooling and removing /suspend bypdroducts of combustion i would change it more...

    hey ! another LRnet outcast, we need to chat ! history is pretty good, i have paper records going back to 1984 that some how managed to carry over from owner to owner, i'm in contact with the owner who had it from 84 - 92 (which is awesome!) i managed to fill in the blanks between 1981 and...

    Series 3 1983 Heystee disc brake conversion

    ok, thats good! so your half shafts also agree with me (us ?) that they are post october 1980 type, they are 24 spline and you have the area where a seal would run. so thats two post 1980 components which say those stub axles are not for you. heres a picture of the back of my post 1980 stub...

    DarrenH saying Hi

    i already posted in subforums so have done this the wrong way round, but hello! i'm a relatively new land rover owner as i got my first at the end of 2009. that vehicle was a very early 2.3 petrol ninety (as i found out later, the manufacture date was a month and a bit before the ninety was...

    Series 3 1983 Heystee disc brake conversion

    Series 3 1983 Heystee disc brake conversion

    oh thats why they look different to mine then, yours are pre1980 type. whats the age of your actual truck ? october 80 the front axles were rationalised (same parts used for 88 and 109) 88s got upgraded to 24 spline outer half shafts like 109 always had, BUT !, the halfshafts were not the...

    How long should Dintrol treatment last?

    "dinitrol" make lots of products, depends what was used. if it was just a cavity wax applied to the outside of the chassis i would not expect it to last very long at all.

    The Big Debate - Britpart or S**tpart?

    i've had my fingers burned on 99% of the stuff i have bought from britpart, which is so far (and i write this mostly for my own benefit in future lol) britpart air intake hose (air cleaner to carb elbow) for 2.3p ninety, was too short by about 3 inches. reason for purchase, genuine land rover...

    Whats happened to the Landrover.net forum.

    good info thanks for replying and trying ! i have no particular allegiance to the domain name or the owners, but am a big advocate of traditional forums and i think it would be mental for it to disappear (as a resource) its not my area of expertise but its my understanding that any domain...
