Warm welcome Paul!

Would be interesting to know! Africa is great, but spares are the real issue here. Toyota spares are readily available, especially for a 70 series landcruiser. Disco 1&2, RR and original defender too, however even rover guys here will admit, you need to know how to fix them!

Exactly as Anaconda says. Go to a decent (recommended by a friend or on here) local independent. You'll get a much more sensible number and list of things to do.

This might be interesting to you...

As soon as someone lends me one lightning! Until then, the Discovery will have to do.

Navara here fell apart (auto box lost 1st and 2nd), trim fell off, tail gate fell off, eventually it warped it’s head and block badly enough to be scrapped. Hilux is doing fine at the moment however much of this could be down to the Navara was driven by 6-8 different people, and only I drive...

Slight revival, but I wondered about your thoughts on starting a 3.9 v8 EFi engine which has been transplanted into a TDi Discovery and then pulling fuses from the original fusebox to see if it stops? I don't need lights or electric windows etc, however much of the original wiring is still...

This thread might help? https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/freelander-1-oil-cooler.346068/ Sounds like it is within the rad, but a Freelander 1 won’t get upset by having a separate one.

It looks like my 3.9 EFi could be from a Ranger Rover? Pin double pin…

Yes it does. My version has a tab to take the tubing on either side. Is that a bit odd? I have found out that the RPi just ups the 35KV at the plugs (new stock) to nearly 50KV. http://www.v8wizard.com/AR_Amp.php

I think that is a good call Rangieman. It is an aftermarket steering setup from PSC. https://www.pscmotorsports.com/all-products/motorsports/fhss/complete-kits/40-inch-and-up-tire-size-1/fhk400p.html Idle is fine unless either side hard lock is used.

It looks like someone else is using #744 this coming year!

Looking at this myself. Considering a AS135 to go with one of their rads.

This should help: https://www.witter-towbars.co.uk/help-and-faqs/towbar-electrics-the-definitive-guide To be honest, this diagram (or one similar) is all I have ever needed…

Because the D2 didn’t fit, or you didn’t try it? My D1 ‘T’ is a bit knackered but I only need the mechanicals. I’m not worried about the reversing light coming on.

Hummmmmm, the website linkage for a D1 looks the same….

Good to hear Becks Bear. I have an autobox on a D1 gear change but wonder if the D2 lever will fit. What did you do? My D2 lever and rod. The D1 is a ‘T’ with the button on the dvr’s side. Not the best picture, as I seem to have focused on the ground!

Needed here in Kenya, Discool. Honest. No, really!

Interesting, it does for me. Have a search for ‘Team Loafer’ or ‘#61’
