Nicely done. The fenders in the first pictures are different than later. Where did you buy those ? Did you cut them ?

Well said Zooropa. This site has excelent moderation. There is absolutely no moderator on Dweb-its a free for all.

I noticed you have the 2.5 td. I have a Tdi and I can start it go back inside for 30 mins and come back out and the engine still isn't making heat. You have to put them under load to make heat. Once moving I get plenty of heat now after opening up the bulkhead opening and heater plenum. There...

When I blew that case I went from deep unplowed snow to a sharp turn on plowed pavement @ 30ish mph (not spining). There were three quick chirps and a bang. This was in an 89 Classic with a transplanted lt230 from an 87 ($250 cheapy) . Tires were 255.85.16 Trixus. There were no prior issues and...

If you drive very far ie. a hundred yards or so, on solid traction like pavement with the CDL locked you will break it. Not sure about disco's but defenders have a decal inside the truck that says not to use the CDL untill traction has been lost or eminent. Years ago we had a 30 plus inch snow...

The transfer case is like yours in that its got high and low ranges. The best way to think of the CDL is as "locking" the front and rear drive shafts together at the transfercase. Turn for turn with zero slipage. Neat feature, makes a horrible sound when you blow one up, fortunately thats hard...

Sweet- thought I heard turbo whine in that clip. Bet that really transformed the 3b.

Cool Cruiser- what engine is in it ? I had a Toyota 2h in my 110 for a while.

We put 300 tdi manifolds and turbo on a Disco 200tdi for my brothers 110. The primary reason we went to such great lengths was that he wanted to also convert it to lhd @ the same time. He had already bought and imported the disco engine when he learned of the clearance issue of the steering...

Keith, I happened into a Tractor Supply while visting over the holidays (don't have one near me). I found a cheap inline 600w lower radiator hose heater for about $20. Made by Katz's Heaters part # 14600.

A lot of good information here. It should be noted that the clutch cover can be swapped and then a 200tdi engine will bolt right up to the 4 cyl r380 bellhousing. Additionally the 300 Tdi manifolds will bolt right on to the 200 tdi if you get the slightly longer 300 studs (but who wears out...

The Range Rover EAS (Electronic Air Suspension) systems operate @ 140 psi which is the primary reason I snagged the tank. Unfortunately the electric rover air compressor on that truck was toast. I guess I should have been more clear- I was looking for a cheap electric compressor recomendation...

I have the apprx 3 gal eas tank from under a 95 Classic (made in Ireland). I want to make an onboard system using a 12v compressor for running air tolls and tire inflation. I have room under the passenger seat or in the engine compartment for the compressor and was going to mount the tank on the...

That would do just fine. I can't tell you how long I have been watching for an original one to pop up. My current plastic one is broken in 6-8 spots

Actually the series three stage one was the predecesor in 109 wheelbase and then the 110 was introduced. The 90 came in 1984. Having had series trucks, an NAS 90, and a lot of 110's, I would and do choose the 110 for most any trail. The 90 does have better departure angles and I do bang the...

Make no mistake I agree whole hearedly that he would have a difficult time buying this truck for for around 100k US, shipping it here from the UK and making any money. Financing is usually not an issue with 25 year old Rovers, at least the ones I have handled. In this credit crunch market...

I'm digging the leather trimmed seat covers what make are those and how do I get some ? The wooden capping/trim for the tray would be a neat improvement from the shiny black plastic crappy stock one. Have to agree with Graham on that upper dash though, that would have to go. To answer your...

Looks like Uwharrie N.C. Did you take the Sankey up "Daniel" ?

I have the Mantec "wading kit" this consists of extensions for all the breathers (except the rear axle) for the front axle, trans,and transfer case. The breathers run up the backside of the snorkle tube and terminate up under the mushroom cap. The idea is that when these warm parts hit cold...

I had a 1986 Toyota 2b 4 liter Land Cuiser diesel in my 110 mated to an Lt95. It had plenty of torque and given the right circumstances (ie sea level) could propel the heavy truck to 75mph. I switched to a defender 200tdi and lt77s and 230 setup and the difference in driveablity is huge. Like...
