Date: Thu, 8 Sep 1994 23:21:01 -0700 From: Roger Sinasohn <sinasohn@crl.com> Subject: Re: Bull Bars/LR Safety On the subject of lamp guards, My 109" came with them covering all the little indicator lamps. The two on the back are now rather twisted and bent. Were it not for them, it would be the lamps themselves that are twisted and bent. As for the bullbars, I dunno if they serve any purpose, but they do look cool. (Not that I'd *pay* for them, mind you, but looking doesn't cost anything.) In regards to safety in general, I agree that in a lot of ways, we (as a society, in the US) have been over-protected to the point where we don't know danger until it smacks us in the face. In the case of the truck falling on the woman, I'll bet that if there had been barriers and such around the area, she would have stayed away, but not seeing them, she *assumed* that it was safe. She *should* have looked at the truck and seen that the area should be kept clear. Not her fault, mind you, but society's. It's the same reason people die in the wilderness all the time -- they've been so protected, they don't know how to stay alive. Like that couple that got stuck in the blizzard in the Black Rock desert a couple of winters ago. The main road (Hwy 80 -- a *major* does-not-close cross-country highway) was closed, so they decided to take a *backroad* to get to where they were going. Got stuck (of course), nearly died (awww), lost body parts to frostbite (oh well!), and became heroes (huh?). Even I (and remember, I was born and bred in The City - San Francisco. My parent's idea of camping was a picnic in golden gate park) wouldn't have been that stupid -- because I wasn't prepared or knowledgeable enough. I recognize the danger in all that. Mud puddles are all the 4-wheeling I do without Scotty or other *experienced* people around. Most people don't have that concept of danger, however. Makes you wonder how they stay alive. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Uncle Roger "There is pleasure pure in being mad sinasohn@crl.com that none but madmen know."

I am not sure what the maker, etc. is, but my dad has them on his 88, and if he drove it aggressively, they would scrape. I also have a winch on the front and would like to be able to carry a better load in back (though I am trying to engineer a "quick-Release" for the winch so i can take it off easily.. it really flattens out the front springs.

The spring maker claims only a 2" lift, and I really don't want to go any higher... frankly, I am not looking to jack the vehicle up, just firm up the springs some and give a "little" more clearance.

I will also bring the address, etc. for _Land-Rover Owner International_ which is also a (rather more established publication). Be aware that both are expensive to subscribe to (because they come from England). You can get the latest copies from British Pacific in Burbank, CA (800)544-4133. BP is a good source of parts for Land-Rovers (along with Rovers North of Westford, VT, the source for genuine parts--for the most part advisable to stick with genuine Land-Rover parts). You might also be able to get the mags from Rovers North (802)879-0032 (I think). Get catalogues from these folks and look at the prices, too. Would advise you to read this LRO list for a while before you jump into buying a Land-Rover. See what problems people have and how they deal with them. It will give you a better idea of what to look for when you buy. They can be expensive to buy and to keep up but parts are much cheaper than for most older cars and they are generally easier to work on than most. The Land-Rover is not the most reliable vehicle you can buy but probably the most durable and repairable. Lots of fun and remarkably capable off-road. Generally slow and clumsy on-road. High- maintenance. TeriAnn Wakeman, an active of the LRO list (which I call Rover-Net), says you've got to be seriously strange to own and drive a Land-Rover. If you are not that way when you get one, you will either become that way or sell it. I would add that you might, instead of selling it, let it sit and rot. I have seen a lot of people do that, too. If this profile fits you and you are not scared of the smell of 90-weight, welcome aboard! The above comments refer to old Land-Rovers. If you are in a position to get a new one, of course you are looking at a whole different matter. It'll still help to be strange! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [ Granville Pool (Redwood Valley, CA) L-Rs: 4-88" 1-80" + Austin Champ 4x4] [ e-mail to: mcdpw@pacific.pacific.net Phone: (707) 485-7220 ] [ Net-Rovers leave a trail of mud & oil on the information superhighway! ] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ------------------------------[ <- Message 8 -> end | Table of Contents | <- Digest 940910 -> Archive Index | <- Browser -> ]

Rgds, Dixon ------------------------------------------------------------------- OVLR will be offering a selection of T-Shirts, Sweatshirts, Golf Shirts, and childrens t-shirts this month. Samples of the various items will be available to be seen at the September Social Gathering at the Prescott on Monday, September 19th. Orders will be taken then by Christine Rose on a no-deposit -- honour system basis. You can rest assured that what you order will be what you get. Christine will be doing a phone around subsequent to the Social Gathering to take any additional orders. If you wish to save her the time and effort of phoning you, please phone her at (613) 256-1598. The order for the items will be made on September 28th, with delivery approximately two weeks later. At the latest, the items will be available at the October Social Gathering at the Prescott, Monday October 17th. The following items will have the club logo and Ottawa Valley Land Rovers printed on them. If you are not sure what this looks like, lust look at the top of the first page of the newsletter. The Land Rover will be to the left of the club name. The available items: T-Shirts: Made of 100% cotton in a natural cotton off-white colour. The Club logo will be in dark green. Available sizes are Small, Medium, Large, and Extra Large. Cost is $16.00 Sweatshirts: (Brand is "No-Fiction") Made of 100% cotton, they will be hunters green in colour with the club logo in limestone.

Date: Fri, 9 Sep 1994 15:18:40 -0700 From: mcdpw@pacific.pacific.net (Granville Pool) Subject: Re: Dual-Matic hubs I have had some experience with the old Dual-Matic hubs which I would like to relate. As someone already mentioned, you have to be careful not to have one lever engaged and the other lever not engaged. That condition is probably what caused our problem. The first Land-Rover we bought had dualmatics. Eventually, we noticed that the front-wheel drive was not working too well, sort of skipping or slipping. We tore the hubs apart and discovered that the drive piece (cast metal--I'm not sure what kind) was cracked. It apparently was spreading under load and thus its inside splines were slipping on the stub-axle splines. The result, by the time we discovered it, was a ruined stub axle. Replacing one of those babies is no picnic, by the way, as you have to take the u-joint apart and reassemble with packing in all those little needle rollers. While fixing that problem, we installed new Fairey hubs (which I have moved from one Rover to another and am still running; I like them. I later had another pair of Dual-Matics and found that those had machined steel drive pieces and were much stronger. If you have dualmatics, make sure that your drive pieces are the strong ones; otherwise, get rid of them! Another problem with these hubs is that the levers tend to not latch in place too well after a while and go flopping around; also a bad situation. In general, I rather think these were about the poorest hubs for Land-Rovers. At least of the ones I have encountered. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [ Granville Pool (Redwood Valley, CA) L-Rs: 4-88" 1-80" + Austin Champ 4x4] [ e-mail to: mcdpw@pacific.pacific.net Phone: (707) 485-7220 ] [ Net-Rovers leave a trail of mud & oil on the information superhighway! ] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ------------------------------[ <- Message 14 -> end | Table of Contents | <- Digest 940910 -> Archive Index | <- Browser -> ]

Very nice trip (an understatement from someone never out of the US before). Thanks to Bill for some pointers, especially motor books in London. Also thanks to Ben Newman for info about Warwick 4x4. I stopped by Warwick 4x4 unannounced while making my way from York to Bath, driving a rental car and never really hitting anything but came close to one pole. Anyway, very nice man, Graham Greenwall and professional looking shop. At warwick, the buy a donor vehicle that you specify, then redo/restore the whole thing keeping the bulkhead for ID but putting in a new galvanized chassis with defender axles and coil springs. The preferred engine is a 2.25 petrol but other can be done if you insist. Graham has all the details an is ready to construct a vehicle to your specs. Prices are not cheap but I think it is a better way to go than getting such an old vehicle from a climate like england (IMHO). I have a brochure, similar to the ads that appear in LRO etc, plus a price list of the basics plus options. Like I said, not cheap, but ..... The big hang up I can see is that england is not the US. Graham of course wants to be paid and not hassle with problems. My bank here in the states won't loan money to buy a USED car (or probably new for that matter) out of the country. Thus, unless I really investigate the money side of the equation, I would have to come up with the full amount (in three seperate payments) and send it to warwick. The payments are spread out as such: one third and they go out and buy a donor of your description (ie, pre 67 109 or 88), one third and they start taking things apart and putting them back together. The last third and they (plus shipping) get the thing in a container and headed off with appropriate papers to a US port. In addition to the digests own Ben Newman (88), I found out that a Dr. Ling in Santa Monica has a Warwick 109. If anyone knows him, is he wired? Graham is hopefully passing my name address and phone to him so he can give me own thoughts about the warwick process. Of course, I'm off to the all british meet on sunday and will talk to the rover folks there. If you make it to Palo Alto, I will be with the tiger folks (look for a white tiger with a tiger blanket in it) or with the rover folks wearing a flourescent pink Sunbeam Tiger hat.
