That’s a toy 😂

The silver line one I got is rubbish. I don’t want another bit of tat. Can’t warrant a fancy leccy one. Happy with manual but want one that’s not a flimsy POS. Thanks

Will all installs require a CPS installing somewhere? I know MS worked from a trigger wheel…

You’ll know far more than I - I’ve still got lots of research to do. Last car I had with a dizzy was a good 10 years ago and that was jap and very reliable. I’m putting a v8 into a 300tdi disco. I do have a v8 loom but I wanted something easy and updated. The yanks seem to love the sniper on...

I’ve done a bit of research on this of recent. I was going to go megasquirt but am now leaning towards either Holley sniper 2 or fitech for my build. I don’t want to be messing about with maps etc. I just want something that self learns and had it’s own intelligence. Have a look at those mate...

It is yes 👍🏻. Interested in a vnt when I do a freshen up but think she’d need the injectors and pump doing first as on 245k 😂

What are standard tdi internals and the Bosch pump pairing good for John? Assume they’ll run 1.5 bar all day? We obviously have to keep Egt etc in check.

Always have to hunt out ‘g’ parts and even then it’s sometimes hard to find certain bits or they’re ridiculous money if they’re G. Thankfully, Land Rover parts are a lot cheaper than jap or premium German. But, do they break more so it evens out anyway? 😂

That’s one corner complete and my gas empty. Need a top up!

Got one on offer last night 😎. Went through stock and got enough to do coolant system overhaul. So all g parts going in. Just need to source a decent rad!

Electric fuel pump…. To link to positive and bypass existing incase the lift or injection fails? Was thinking more longevity than long distance but all good stuff. Thinks I had in my head were hoses etc. don’t know if power steering hoses and similar are worth replacing. Always carry s fan...

Some of their work is so smart. They custom bits they do are lovely

Genuine door seals and good door alignment helps. That defender draught right on the hip and kidney is horrible. My 300tdi disco is fine after first couple miles 😉

Bought an allisport one didn’t you. Couldnt avoid it could you…. Don’t know if you did that weird in-line stat but they’re quite brittle too and worth changing

I’ve used a full bottle 😂 it’s saying nothings left but still letting out 20 so I’ll keep it going. I really want a new welder. Either a rogue and r parweld but I’ve just had to pay out for a new boiler 🤦‍♂️

Tying it back in now on N/S

Max if you want pictures of it all look at my “try again thread” there’s also details in there for it all. I’ve gone to the extent of new tubs where I didn’t watch to keep patching! You’ll be buzzing once it’s done.

Does look nice and solid don’t it and ties in well to the uprights

Shout if you need any more pics as I’ve one D1 in use and that restoration 👍🏻

Yeah I lifted mine from there with wooden blocks. I did a similar repair to the one you’re doing years ago. It’s quite intricate at the boot end! The actual beam isn’t too bad. You’ve got unlucky that it’s gone there. Yeah I’m doing full restoration on this one 👍🏻 Bare in mind micks pictures...
