So as promised the new slider pics, a little late I'm sorry I've been busy with converting a horse box trailer into a flat bed trailer. So unlike the conventional tree sliders with the round tubing i went down the box section route, and boy i love em. Look so much better to me than tubed sliders...

hey, thanks for your input. i forgot to mention i have replaced the ball joint in the a frame already, i bought one for a disco many years ago and put it in that safe place and found it straight away. What a B*****D of a job also but with heavier hammers it will come out. unfortunately its not...

Hi everyone, so I've bought my first real car... a defender 90 :p i bought it with all the mods thats you can see from the first pic, which was the bonus i wanted as i don't have to spend more on mods. Its a 1986 with a 200tdi leaky engine and its been tuned, when i say tuned i presume the fuel...

thanks james martin for getting back in touch with this topic, i will carry on trying to find a lt77 box but they are proving very hard to source.

I'm sorry to bring this post up but... Ive got a lad rover 90 on a C suffix and I'm lead to believe the output shaft is buggered shall we say. so trying to find a lt77 box is very hard. i can get a discovery r380 box no problem. so with the kit from ashcroft and the process of taking the gear...

Obviously there's some good ebayers amongst us but the absolute idiots who spoil it are the ones who get our backs up about it all. Regards to people wanting it for nothing is bang on as they're doing that so they can make the money that you want to make. I'm loosing money if anything on it but...

27 more ooh my, never mind hopefully it will be gone by the 30th post. Yea there's loads on there I've had trouble before with someone. It's people like them that make me want to delete eBay.

Hi guys and good evening, so I've put my disco v8 on eBay and had some guy interested in it within a local travelling distance. Thing is he went online and put my car in on a online valuation and said to me it was £600 so would I take £600. So my reaction was, very very shocked and some what...

hi guys and thanks for the replies, this morning i myself got it going, the timing was 1 tooth out and it was that causing it. also i disconnected the 3rd fuel relay that was connected for the lpg, boom straight up on the key. any ways timing was slightly out and needed my pal to bring me his...

Just out of interest ste, I've got 3 fuel pump relays ? 2 in the drivers footwell and one in under the bonnet is that right or not ?

Yes there's power to injectors. Is there by any chance that the injectors could be nackered and will not work as of that. I think we've sussed that the injectors were still firing but no fuel once the lpg was running. That's the only thing we can think of. If this is the case I did a test on the...

Ok so now I have the fuel pump relay back working under the bonnet but still have the issue of the injectors not injecting. I've an idea it has something to do with the coil and the wires that are going to it. Will investigate further tomorrow. Help is still needed guys

So I've now disconnected the lpg system from the wiring loom and for some reason I've lost the use of my fuel pump relay for some reason :-S trying to back step thinking what was on the fuel pump relay to do with the lpg and I'm lost again. Can anyone give a good diagram or colour code wires to...

If I attach a timing strobe I will only be able to crank it over, will that be enough to get a good timing indication ? May sound dumb now but not sure what the interrupter cable is and I don't see any other cables to plug back into the injectors. Just one plug on the injectors and no the plug...

Hi thanks for the reply yes I removed the old dizzy completely to eliminate that and refitted a brand new one. But now I've had a much more experienced mechanic make sure I've got it right now. Yes it was running on gas when it died, so then I changed the switch back over to petrol and...

How do I find out dr evil ?

Hi guys, so here goes with my problem. Yesterday I took my disco only 2 miles from my home and just about to park up it just died, at the time it was running on lpg and I thought ill just turn it to petrol to start up and nothing, head scratching moment now. So jiggled leads to coil and dizzy...

Cheers it's just from the tyre it's 8" to the box of the rear door frame(where the body mounts are under) I still think it's not enough, I keep looking and head scratching just to see where needs more of for it to fit or look somewhere near.

Just a question to the builder, how much over hang of the rear door frame did you have past your tyre/wheel. I'm on with mine now and I'm at a stand still thinking its not enough.
