The DILEMA:  I'm wanting to ditch the General Grabbers (235/85R16) on my
Defender(2003 110) which are laced onto alloy BOOST rims,

How's the RR 'enforced restoration' going? Is it finished yet?
Any more pics?
Monty is now road legal & is well sweet, although it might need something doing with the boot floor soon.
I'm gonna give it a really good clean out now & give it a right good wash & brush up! I'm after a ...

Disco D1, V8 carb, manual, 3 door.
I have a dilema, to put on a 2" lift or to fit larger diameter tyres...
..budget won't allow me to do both yet.
My understanding is that a lift will give me greater axle articulation

Hi Group
I was coming home yesterday fighting a pretty fierce headwind in the
recently overhauled 300Tdi Disco (auto). With a bulky, but light trailer
behind (approx 2m [l] x 1,6m [w] x 1x6 [h] and about 400kgs) I was battling

Just had a 5 minute job take - well it felt like forever...
..my brake pistons are pretty much shot - I actually bent and fractured a
G-clamp trying to squeeze the piston back in. The big question is do I buy
re-furb calipers or should I have a go at replacing the pistons and seals

Does anybody know of a source for Forest Wire Kits in the UK who aren't
Scorpion racing?
AFAICT they are just 1/4" Stainless Steel wire, some eyelets, a couple of
turnbuckles and some mounting hardware - I suspect I can get something from

muff but some people have said it doesn't make much difference?!

Does anyone know where I might be able to get some stickers I can put on
my 90 to make it look like Tiger Stripes? or Zebra Stripes due to the

fit changer is located?
I haven't taken delivery of mine yet but was hoping to use the space under
the passenger seat for development kit we test.  It's just ocurred to me

As in something you screw to the wall and, erm, stick your spanners

I can't immediately see them in the Machine Mart Catalogue.
Anyone know what I mean - or where I could get a couple?

Grateful for advice on sound proofing a Series III 2.25 diesel. We are
travelling to Scotland in December and the thought of 600miles on a motorway
is not a pleasant one.
There is a kit available but costs ?250 which is a bit steep. Has any one

I'm having a clearout, and this is the first thing that I bounced off when
clearing the garage.
If anybody wants them, I have a set of original fitment springs off a 200
Disco (1993) which although used are not actually knackered.

Just fitted a radio to my Series 3 which works great until I switch on other
things like heater fan, wipers or cooling fan.
When ever any of these are running there is a lot of crackling, this is
mainly when listening to the radio but also a bit when playing tapes.
