hello there i am rebuilding a late series 2a land rover and have fitted discovery axles and one tone shackles what model of shock absorbers did you fit on the front and the rear thanks bill

Hi could u show me how you did the diesel turbo manifold as I’m looking at using that manifold cheers

What front spring are you using? Or did just remove some springs?

Ive got one and it has a discovery 300tdi

I’m more interested in the Range Rover

This is amazing..since im wondering how to out tdi and the drive train to a series..and this enlightened me up..thank u.. 👍

Ignition damp...strip clean dry .

Brilliant! A proper Landrover with character and individuality. Well done.

الاسطورة...التى يمكنك الاعتماد عليها فى الصحرا هى الرفيق الوفى فى الصحراء الليبيه .

Great video and love the landy mate. I'm 19 and wish I had a series (rebuilding a disco 1 at the monent) would love to see more videos of this thing!

It’s unique as all Landies should be. Well done.

Hey, nice Landy! I'm looking at swapping a 2.6 petrol in my 109 to a 200tdi, I see you have a 19J turbo on your 200tdi. How did you get that to fit as I understand the exhaust ports and stud holes are different between a 19J and 200tdi for the exhaust manifold?

Very nice job. Well done

Cool truck! Hope you keep an eye on them welds you mentioned, so you dont die. 😋 Love the tractor exhaust.

Who would evict someone right in the middle of a Land Rover rebuild? Mean people suck, lol. Great job Sir! It made me laugh seeing you put a Mini project on hold. I'm doing the same now, working on my Series III and finishing my Mini later this fall. Cheers!

Land Rovers don't LEAK !! They're marking their TERRITORY !!! I have two Land Rovers a series 1 , 1957 86" wheel base diesel, and a 1965 series 2A 109" wheel base station wagon diesel. I'm the original owner of the 109 and the series 1 was purchased new by my father. Absolutely love both of them and wouldn't sell either. I changed the engine in the 109 to a 3.9 Isuzu , like the Australian military Land Rover Perentie, along with the gear box (transmission). There's several companies in Australia that are great help with conversion kiks. Parts are very hard to find for the old Land Rovers. Lucky I have a great machine shop to make certain items. Great video. Thank you for sharing your Land Rover Series 2A. Greetings from Florida, USA

What gearboxes is in it tank

Cracking video. Old series trucks never die, they get fitted with Tdis and just keep going.

Your Music.....Respect to you...you know a tune .....it makes the video visually and sonically enjoyable..... (Shit"visually and sonically " .not something I've ever said before)...

0:48 indeed it is

We got one at home got a v8 stag engine in it and tuned sounds amazing and spits flames out of the front

crank baby crank baby crank baby:)

nice work, about as good as mine was to start with lol

Pop an v8 in son, we've a factory v8 and never looked back

Archie, can I grab your email? I would love to ask you a few questions regarding your axel swap. Cheers.

This not Land Rover Series IIA, but is Land Rover Series II, no a "A". The "A" has the headlights in the mudguard.

put a 200 tdi in my 67 2a. nice easy job. totally transforms it especially with disco diffs in you'll get pulled by plod with those tyres on

Very nice I've got a series 3 88 with a disco 200tdi I have a 94 classic that I'm pulling the axels to do a similar axel swap Is there a chance you could do a video with some detail on the steering and axel diff angle Cheers Aaron

I have a 2a in bronze green with a defender 200 tdi

I am driving on WVO almost 15 years without any problems... And i spare so much money on the fuel :)

What does your Mini start like on a REALLY COLD MORNING if you haven't used it for several days? Do you usually find it needs a lot of cranking to get it going? How much choke do you use?

Thank you always good make and do!! and to see a young enthusiast enthusiastically looking after the old land rover like all you engineering up grads and tips long wheel base master cylinder I am getting mot my 2a a difficult to bleed soft brakes '! enjoyed watching your video. if you are in Wales always welcome to pop over for tea do bring old Land Rover 2a

Nice Truck, I too am 19 with a series in need of work. I was wondering how you're getting on with those 1 ton shackles, I've heard some horror stories about them messing up the U joint geometry on the prop shaft, and binding the u joints, in one case braking a ring gear. Also, how do you bleed the calipers with them upside down?

Nice to get a closer look at this truck, seen it plenty often on the Facebook group. Nice wagon!

very informative 👍

What the name of the song

Well done young Fella! A home LandRover restoration will set you up with life skills more than any governmental course ever could. You'll learn ..... 1) Welding, gas & electric (the joining of rust to rust, or the melting of rust to rust). 2) Grinding (the cutting away and smoothing down of rust) 3) Mechanical engineering (how to unbolt rusted fixings from corroded rusted chassis members) 4) Auto electrics (working with frayed rusting wiring harnesses held together with rusted clips and fasteners) 5) Coach & Spray painting if selling on ebay (aka the covering or & covert hiding of terminal rust, ie door hinges to body, or rear cross member to chassis) 6) Patience (the ability to withstand being tempted to smash with a 24lb sledge hammer, every bit of what remains of the chassis and outriggers after chipping off what you initially believed to be just slight pitting) 7) Money management and Accounting! (ie how to manage to spend exorbitant and obscene sums of money, then somehow attempt to account for where it all went!) 8) Extreme off road driving skills (for our well maintained UK Motorways and A roads). 9) Kindness! (for freely giving the inland revenue enormous and yearly increasing amounts of your hard earned cash to simply be allowed to use it on the aforementioned billiard table smooth roads). After saying all that....They're simply THE best and no mistake!

How are you funding all this?

Awesome car, and awesome song!! hahahaha

lookin good not far off now try the 2.5na from a defender will drop straight in

I started mine when i was 13.. I'm 14 now.. still have not finished :) nearly, though

GREAT WORK MEN!!! Congratulations!

Try a transit di engine they are bomb proof m8! Good luck!!

Sounds very much like an Bmw 330d with decat and pipes. Sweet.

Good luck! It ''ll pay off

just brought a series 3 with a Holden motor

Triumph 2000 six. Sits further back than the MGC engine so doesn't need the bulge, has had a chunk taken out of the bulkhead though. It's a very tight fit and because of the engine being further back there is not even space for a heater and the rocker cover is peerlessly close to the bonnet but has never touched. Triumph 4 speed box with over drive, triumph wheels, Spax gas shocks with twins on the front and uprated brake lines. All done many many years ago :)

What engine is that as it doesn't have an mgc bonnet?

Cheers guys! I must put an updated video of the David brown tractor as that is now finished, I've also been working pretty much flat out during the summer so I didn't get anything done. I've just started working on him again and have almost got the brakes and suspension done, so it doesn't really look any different. I will upload a vid as soon as he's got lights!

Cool rebuild. Im currently restoring a series 3 short wheel base with a soft top so your story's a lot like mine :)
