Thanks for all that. As far as I can make out the 90 parts catalogue is about
40 ukp so if I was spending that I might as well go for the workshop manual
but the SIII one might be worth considering. 

I've got a copy of the owners handbook, if that's what you were referring to
but it doesn't tell you an awful lot and I was looking for just a bit more (eg
sort of Haynes manual level but as I said that does not cover the V8)

Loz,
Oh B****** I got my figures round the wrong way.
I meant
33x12.5x15
which are 2.5 inches bigger in both diameter, and width.  As the saying
goes, you can make anything fit...

I sure am on for a run back home.
I wander if we can find that errant young Scott Owen?
Last time I blew a gearbox - I promise not to do the same again.
BTW you are slipping, despite you're loudly stated claim that LRs should be
green I notice in your column a picture of part of a BLUE LR ;-) (indeed a
very clean BLUE LR).
I'll be in touch separately with holiday dates.

Gordon,
I missed the beginning of this thread 'cos I was upgrading (again) and =
I'm to lazy to go back through the digest...
But if you are looking for a workshop manual that covers V8s I have a =
spare kosher Land Rover (big grey and heavy) Defender workshop manual, =
dated 1993, that has everything in.... =A325 plus postage or depending =
where you are (I'm north of Manchester) we could arrange something.
Best Cheers

Subject: Wheel arches

Does anyone know the legal requirements for wheelarches? I know the wheels 
shouldn't extend beyond
the bodywork, but how much bodywork needs to be there? Is it enough to have the 
top part of the
wheelarch wider than the wheel or is there a requirement for width further down 
as well?

Subject: What did i find in the heater duct?

only yesterday we were "nigeling" about heater blowers and ducts, and I
said it was surprising what I found in my 88" when I stripped that last
year.

Today I outdid my previous treasure hunting escapades. I removed the
dash tray and duct which has not been unbolted at least since 1984 - and
probably not since 1976, and what did I find inside?

A fairly corroded but still intact Eley Kynoch 12 bore cartridge -
unfired.

Only god knows how long it's been in there, and even he might have
trouble guessing how it got in there (maybe a gift from Solihull?). I'm
just glad that with all the knocking and welding and grinding that I
have incurred on that car in 15 years, that it didn't go off.

I think we should start a new thread, and award a prize to the poster of
the strangest thing ever found in the duct of their landy (OK - series I
and II owners will just have to grin and watch).

Can anyone better this?
