you write: >>> I had tubeless tires mounted on my 16x5 rivited rims, and ran

I usually run tubless these days, evrry now and again one develops a slow
leak. So long as it is slow enough I;m happy to check it weekly.
 When it starts to go down quicker I pop into my friendly tyre place (I;ve
shot with the guy and he owns land Rovers) and he whips the tyre off, cleans
all the dust and muck out of there, and the tyre stays up.
 It's normal, after off-roading, for small particles to be jammed down the
side of the tyre and cause the leak.

Front mounting tabs, not rear ones. The front tabs
moved about - I believe they moved outward on the
outriggers.

Not a big deal - you simply redrill the box to match
the tabs, no more than that.

Reply-To: [email-masked]

It's unfortunate that Land Rover gearboxes do not have a standard PTO
port on the side like most US manufacturers use. This would solve a LOT
of power distribution issues that come with adding accessories like
winches and such.
There are few choices for adding hydraulic power to the standard LR 2.25
engine/transmission. The first choice would be a belt driven pump
hanging on the side of the engine. This requires some fabrication of a
mounting bracket in an area which won't interfere with the alternator
and the fan. Not much wiggle room in this...you can mount it low where
the gen/alt is and then mount the gen/alt elsewhere(?) or mount it high
and run it off the alternator's double sheave pulley. You could also
make up a bracket that hangs the pump above the alt/gen and run a
separate belt to a doubled fan pulley. Lastly, a power steering pump may
be modified to power the system, but performance will be very much
reduced due to the low volume on these. 
A second option is a 12V motor driven system that can be located in any
position, can operate as long as there's battery power (a second "house"
battery would be good for this) and will not rob the engine of
horsepower. This could be made from any small motor like a starter motor
ot even a dedicated winch motor (http://www.wms1.com/wms1/index.html)
You can mount the reservoir and motor on a bracket that lives in the
empty seatbox and run switches to the bulkhead. This way, pump runs only
when needed, which saves wear and tear.

I fitted seatbelts to the back of my SW using LR diagonal wall-brackets and
L-R under-wheelarch brackets.
I gather the wall-brackets are for hardtop swb fronts too, so would give you
the correct upper mount....

    I am going to manufacture a PTO driven hydraulic pump similar to the 
early ones that LR sold for the hydraulic winch and other hydraulic

Am I really going to have to spend #50 each on seat belts for my S3? 
I've spoken to all the norms (paddocks, craddocks...) and they all advise
me against using salvage.  Come on, even a piece of wet string would be
better than the dodgy belts I have now!  Anyone know of a cheaper

The hazard of using salvage is not knowing the history of the belt, but if
the car it comes out of isn't severely damage at the front, chances are the
belts is good if it looks and works OK. 
Of course belt sellers will advise against salvage because they want your
money!!!

When you say waterproof, do you mean it won't leak, or it won't rot?
Any synthetic carpet should be able to meet trhe second criterium.
Is this for the floors or interior trim/headliner etc?

If you are intelligent in the choice of salvage it can
be done. The belts I have in my 109 came from a recent
Jeep wreck - the belts hadn't been damaged in the
wreck - I could tell by the impact in the
windshield...

No joke, unfortunately.

I've used them and they're in great shape - $10 each
and I pulled them myself to ensure they' weren't
damaged.

Do you REALLY want to be cheap about seat belts? This should go into the
same category as brakes and tires; buy new and the best you can possibly

Yes, I am sure. Any carpeting you lay down, unless you
bed it in RTV is going to let water underneath.

Think edges. Also think that you can't glue down ther
front carpeting completely - you will need to be able
to remove the floor and tunnel for maintenance.

Any carpeting is a fabric with flocking attached -
even waterproof "marine" carpeting will let water
through in any case. 

Do a little research and I think you'll realize for
yourself this is not a good idea.

Reply-To: [email-masked]

You'll be sooooooooooooorrrrrrrrrrryyyyyyyyyyy!  When I got my 109 the front
footwells were clad in soggy carpet with half rotten padding underneath.
The carpet was waterproof but the plastic fibers made wear marks in the
paint on the floorboards and firewall where the padding was gone, exposing
bare metal which made the corrosion process faster.  Luckily I had only
minor pitting in the right side and even less on the left side.  The first
thing I did for my rover was pull the carpet from the footwells and middle
row of seats.  The wet padding held water - as did the carpet.  The middle
floor was also carpeted and all the slotted sheetmetal screw heads were so
cancered the slots were gone - again due to wet carpet.  It is a series rig,
so it will leak water into the interior.  Count on it.  The carpet in the
rear of my rig was so securely glued in I had hours and hours into yanking
it and the padding, stripping the glue, sanding and painting.  All these
things are big negatives in preserving the rig and in making a change if you
ever decide to change from the carpet.  If I remember you correctly you are
building a nice rover for yourself, and you are high school age, so you will
have it a long time. Do yourself a favor, consider rubber mats.  Consider
glued in soundproofing/heat proofing and even consider multiple layers of
rubber mats (you can buy it at restaurant or industrial supply houses -
don't buy it from a rover parts place or you will pay way too much). If you
must have carpetting, just lay it in place (over rubber mats) so you can
remove it to dry out or get rid of it if you later decide you don't like it.
But don't permanently install carpetting in a series rover.  There is too
big a downside.

	I hope you will reconsider.  Carpet in a rover is against the laws of
nature.

I did glue carpet in my rover, but only on the (freshly galvanized)
bulkhead so I don't anticipate it causing the problems that carpet on the
floor (what an awful idea!) would.
