Already taken :-)
I printed out a Land-/
/-Rover badge, but reading "Rand Lover" and stuck it on the
back of Spikkels, the yellow Rand-Lover. Most people never noticed the
reversal :-)
Of course, it only works in South Africa...

Re: New harness:
Hell, no!
Re: Extra leads:
That harness is NOT originally for a Diesel - those leads are for the
cold-start switch and its underpinnings, I believe.
Bugger the harness wires. Don't bother to use them. Just make up a 3-wire
harness to go to the lamp, fusebox and main battery lead from16 (white),
14(red) and 12(red) gauge wire respectively, and run that to your new
internally-regulated alternator. Leave the old regulator in place till you
figure out who's who at that end, then disconnect and insulate the leads.
Have a look at the wiring diagrams for a petrol truck of yours' vintage - I
think it will be clearer for you than the Diesel one. I think someone has
been at yer harness, mate.....8*)

From: TeriAnn Wakeman <twakeman@cruzers.com> Date: Fri, 22 May 98 07:28:23 -0700 Subject: overlanding + photography = ??? I'm discovering that there seems to be a real interest in trips that combine photogrpahy with 4X4 driving. Maybe this is somthing worth doing more than once. There are lots of places I like/would like to tour and photograph. On normal 4X4 runs I have felt pressured not to stop for a picture, or if I do, to hussle. For me photography is a Zen like thing that takes its own time. On the Border to Border Trek I didn't take the big camera because I pecieved that there wouldn't be time to set it up. But there were way too many times I passed up a picture I wanted to take becuse the group was on a roll. Even still, I dropped out of the group frequently to take a picture. Running alone trying to play catchup because I stopped for a picture was a common state for me during that trip. I enjoyed the Border to Border trip and the marathon nature of the pace was an interesting challange. But if I hadn't spent a month photographing much of the route area 6 months earlier and knew I would be back a month later I would have gone crazy for all the unexposed photos I left behind. I think I end up going out alone most of the time just so I can take photographs in peace without the pressure of people standing around wanting to be off but tying to respect my NEED to take a picture. I find myself torn between going on trips where I will have company of nice people with 4X4 Land Rover interests or having the peace to take pictures. It is beginning to look like there are others out there with the same infliction. The Red Rock trip will be an interesting experiment. maybe it will become the first of many overland photography trips. I think a trip of this kind would need to have a careful balance between getting from point A to point B and providing the freedom to look over a perspective image and become one with the scene. This will be an experiment and a learning experience.

It is also there when in 3rd and am going too fast for the gear - when about to change up etc. It reminds me of the sound or a main bearing going. But the engine is new in (recently recon), the oil and water are fine and it hasnt run out of either I did have a small problem the beginning of the week when landrover garages had fogotten to give me a copper washer for the oil pressure switch. But the oil didnt go below the "critical" level. The sound only comes under power, at the top end of the gears. I dont want to bugger another engine. Can anyone help?

I've fixed the exhaust, so its quieter, and also have a temp gauge working again. The problem with that was it was an electrical switch, with mech. wiring and dail. The dial was broke. I got a s3/90 dail off Mick and popped it in. After a bit of fiddling i got it going. System behaving itself ok? My brother said he cannot duplicate the problem you had with the Plus Pack.

From: Faye and Peter Ogilvie <ogilvi@hgea.org> Date: Fri, 22 May 1998 19:06:43 Subject: Re: Leaking transmission... quick fix? Not a big deal. Just need to remove the drive shaft and the parking brake, if my memory serves me right. The out put flange could have a groove worn in it by the old seal which makes a good seal a problem. Supposedly there are sleeves to put over the shaft if that is the case but have had no experience with them. FWIW new OEM seals didn't do a hell of a lot to stop oil leaks in my transmission.

After looking it over, I find that the original regulator was replaced with a junction plate. It looks sound, so I don't expect any problems from it. The truck is ex-South African Army, so it's anybodys' guess as to when/who did it. It's one of those that has a great body, but the chassis is trash! I COULD fix it, (and it would be a learning experience for me) but... Thanks for the help.

Lately, however, I haven't been able to get onto it for some reason - the javascript doesn't seem to want to run.
