I didn't know the army had any Stage 1s, but they had 1-tonners (strengthened versions of mine), so why not? The radio side of things, it sounds like you have FFR. I haven't managed to differentiate my stuff into HF/VHF/UHF, but then some of the fittings have been removed. I'm after a pair of wing-mounted "Larkspur" aerial mounts as you describe, although I think they might block visibility. Do they? I have the switches,etc. for Infra-Red and Convoy lights, although the Convoy Light has been removed. Yes, the alternator is big (I assume its the same as the 2.25l fitted one) New Genuine Parts, they cost more than an engine, but secondhand they cost GBP 20-30 (my spare was GBP 20 from Old Sodbury). PS: does anyone know anything about servicing/get bits? When I have some spare time, I could service my spare so its "ready" in-case I need it! You may prefer to civilianise the ht electrics, I had loads of trouble with my distributor and spark cabling - all that shielding, urrrgh!

I was receiving it fine for about a week and then nothing for the last 4 days.

This happened with both this list and the UK list. Can anyone help? Have I been banished? Do I exist? Whats the meaning of^H^H^H (oops wrong question).

It looks like the originals were riveted in place, and as I seem to recall, there was a discussion some time ago about replacing the seals. Do the rivets need to be drilled out and is the replacement easy? Some have mentioned that there is an equivalent type J seal available at parts stores, but there is also the original J seal. Which is best and what is the relative merits and costs? Clayton ------------------------------[ <- Message 11 -> end | Table of Contents | <- Digest 970325 -> Archive Index | <- Browser -> ]

The shock towers on the front of my 109 coiler conversion broke in 2. The shock then went up through that plastic cover and bumped the ignition coil. That's how I noticed in the first place - no way to tell from handling :) I think they're all the same on RRs and D90s - any used ones out there?

Date: Mon, 24 Mar 1997 12:41:55 -0500 From: "Adams, Bill" <badams@usia.gov> Subject: Re: door seals on series II There is no simple way, really. If you use original-type seals, you have to get all the old rivets out. No big deal really, just chisel 'em off. Fun part is that the new seals rarely line up with the old rivet holes, so you end up drilling a zillion holes for the new ones. You could use a push-on type seal, but then you'll need to grind off the lip on the door jamb.

I understand dealers do a booming business in parts and service, but probably mostly by warantee work that they are too happy to perform at the request of whining customers. This certainly takes a big bite out LRNA's survivability picture. After the 50,000 miles are up, prudent buyers either dump the vehicle or go elsewhere for service. The secondary Land Rover parts and service business is probably just coming into a strong growth period. With RR's having been sold since '87, there are only 5 or so model years of vehicles outside of dealer warantee, with the majority of vehicles sold in recent years yet making their appearance in the secondary parts and service sector. Judging by my recent experience with the auto body and insurance business in California (US wide?), parts sold at outrageous list prices lines the pockets of LRNA and dealerships. In another twist, parts prices quoted to me by dealerships appeared to be marked UP (!) 10-15% over LRNA list. -Michael "New Math" Carradine 72-88, 89-RR 55-404S ------------------------------[ <- Message 16 -> end | Table of Contents | <- Digest 970325 -> Archive Index | <- Browser -> ]
