Thanks for the replies. I've got a black bezel and I don't need to separate the mechanism just get the metal back off so I can try and retrieve the green bulb filter that's rattling around in there.

Had a bulb go in one of the speedo backlights and to cut a long story short I think I need to open up the speedo gauge. Searching around on here brings up loads of speedo related hits but can't seem t ...

Thanks for the replies. I'll be getting some 7.5/100 then.

I'm not certain what ratios I have to be honest, she's an '89 G reg last of the 110s (before the defender came out) that started life with ...

Was looking at these for use on a 110 for everyday driving so really only on road. I know the 7.5/100 latitude cross are the tyres that they fit on defenders as standard so LR must think they're good ...

Good shout on comparing at the paint shop. I've selected "Traffic white" RAL 9016 from a RAL swatch held up against the roof. Was hard to call between Signal White (RAL 9003) and the traffic ...

Taken the wheels to Able blast cleaning and they seem a decent place.

I've got some new wheels and looking to get them painted white. The place I've taken them for painting asked for a RAL or BS paint code. I'm struggling to tie up land rover codes to these.

Apologies for neglecting this thread. Had a hectic month which did somehow include a successful MOT despite this sporadic problem with turning off. Caught her on a good day.

Cheers for clarifying that. Other than hunting for some 255/100 (9.00r16) michelins I've read about in other posts these 255/85s seem to be the tallest I can find that'll go on a wolf rim.

Thanks, ...

Cheers for the recommendation, their pricing looks more promising!

Thanks,

Hello,
I'm looking at getting some of the above on wolf rims (in the other threads with this size tyres on 110s I couldn't find any mention of what lift they might've had).

First off it looks like ...

Thanks mr tyre.

I spoke to simmonites and thought I'd pass on what they said.

They do have refurbed tubeless 5.5 steels which they can sell for less than brand new 5.5 steels as long as you have ...

Stop solenoid has packed in again on my G reg 110 (started life as 19J now with defender 200tdi). Stuck open a couple of months ago after some vigorous bouncing in longsleddale. Took it out thinking I ...

I've got a G reg 110 county and looking to replace the (possibly) original tubed 5.5 steels. Either with tubeless 5.5 white steels or a set of wolfs.

Thanks for the tips. I'd sort of come to the same conclusion from reading other posts but hadn't come across any specific recommendations for an uprated unit that goes on a 19J/200tdi.

Thanks for the reply.

Before I lose all faith in Paddocks can you confirm if the wiring was different moving from the 45A to 65A lucas parts? The lucas site shows quite a few units for land rover. ...

Paddocks were insistent that the only one compatible is the A127 45A and that the 65A A127 version was only for vehicles with aircon. Simmonites also advised fitting a 45A unit.

Dear all,

Thought I'd give a bit of belated feedback after getting this sorted. I got an MoD one from blanchard's in the end (think it was ~£120). Not sure if it is genuine MoD but it does the trick. If it's a ...

Thanks for all the comments and the pictures. I think I'll try to get the MoD one.

Cheers

I want to mount my spare on the bonnet and wondered if people could recommend a kit and offer any advice about fitting. I've found the below so far
