    Dash repair

    Like most I suppose, my 1985 LR has a crack on the dash. It was there when I got it and before I screwed a phone holder in place of the ash tray. I was thinking of making a tight fitting cover/plate/thing, to hide it. Not a big problem really, was going to be a rainy day fix to get me away...

    Rear slide window inserts

    I have a 1985 90 county with 2 rear sideways sliding windows. When closed they rattle like the change in a stressed engineers pocket. Seems the hard plastic insert that fits all along the length of the window is missing from the top only. Bottom one is there... Sort of, but the top one is not...

    2.25 petrol rough idle

    Popped my 1985 LR 90 2.25 petrol to my brothers house round the corner to tune it up as it was running rough on idle. We set the timing first, plugs looked clean, so a spark was good. Cap looked loose fitting and the rotor arm was all over the place so... 1 new distro cap. Not fixed One of the...

    90 on a trailer

    Does anyone have information about the smallest possible trailer to fit a LR 90 onto? Obviously braked and twin axle. Every trailer I see seems big, but if I wanted to make one myself specifically to plop a 90 onto, it would be quite small. anyone seen anything out there already made?

They buried their...

    Key question

    My 1985 LR 90 has 6 keys. I was looking at reducing this. 1 for ignition, that's always going to be the same one 1 for bonnet 1 for RH door 1 for LH door 1 for rear door and 1 for the lock on fuel cap. Now I don't mind the bonnet one or the fuel one, I don't fill up often enough for it to...

    Dog ramp stowage

    Got a dog ramp for my ageing dog and wondered if anyone has stored it on the spare tyre on back door. Was about to look at tuley strap it on but thought I’d ask around anyway. I have a 90 and space for 2 big dogs becomes a problem when I keep it inside.

    Steering reservoir leak

    My 1985 Landrover 90 steering reservoir leaks. This is the old metal type that looks way too big and is bolted to the inside RH of the engine bay. Clearly the lid leaks as fluid is sitting on top inside the outside lip. I'm told by a reliable source that it's normally down to people over...

    Heater blower

    One of the jobs I want to quickly do on my recently bought 85' 90 is get the heater blower working. Checked the fuse today, it's blow, fitted a new one, it blew. Checked the wiring going to the heater box in the corner on top of the bulkhead, all the wiring looks good and it does not blow...

    Bonnet sound proofing

    Firstly a big 'THANK YOU', to the previous owner who thought it a good idea to stick this **** under the bonnet of my latest 1984 90 purchase. 2 AA cards with a heatgun and 2 hrs of elbow grease later and it's off, who said the AA was useless! When I picked the car up a few weeks ago, I drove...

    90 owner

    I am the proud owner of a 'new to me' 1985 90 and my first ever LR. Wanted one for decades and can now proudly park it (hidden) next to my house. Now begins the long list of excuses for the wife as to why I 'need', bits for it.

    Hi Thank you for adding me. Picking up my long awaited first 90 this weekend and have a couple of very easy questions. Will search for answers so not super important, but thought I'd say hello and start a conversation here first. I'm getting an 85 petrol. That's the 2.28 engine with weber...
