I went and had a fantastic weekend. The 60th anniversary display was excellent. The auto jumble was superb. The weather was awesome.

I had a serious look at this the steering rod that goes from the end of the steering column to the PAS box needs more room than the inner wing provides you will have to fit a defender inner or cut the inner about to let it turn.

One side has a hole that the flexi pipe comes out of and into the snorkel. But it does look to sit high also I've read on a thread some...

Land Rover used to sell a cam adjuster repair kit. Basically you drill out the old one and bolt in a new cam spring and locking plate. takes about 10mins to fit. Craddocks may be able to help you. It saves you from removing the whole backplate

Funny I took it for an MOT today and she flew through it. Driving it was hard work but fun and it's got so much character. The Defender 90 is an excellent car but a bit soulless after the Stage One. If it does sell then I will make sure the owner uses this excellent forum.

It's mine. I'm looking for a good home if anyone knows one. I've got a 90 V8 to replace it so the wife can now drive it. I'll stay on this forum as I'm doing a Range Rover 4.6 engine conversion to distributor and carburetor, which may be of interest to some

I used an orange polybush set polybush sell differing grades of hardness depending on colour. Orange was recommended by Chris Perfect when I bought his parabolic suspension. Easy to fit and/replace and 2 yrs on are outliving the originals easily.

I've seen this fitted in two different ways both on Series three Long wheelbase.

The circuit splits front and back or opposite corners. Not sure which one would be best but I can see the benefits of both
