| You may also watch the voltage of your battery with a multimeter as you start it cold to see what it drops to. The Td5 likes a battery with over 700 CCA; the genuine battery fitted I think is a 110AH/ ... |

| I just did my glow plugs as well due to some hard starting. Although they were probably due, the Td5 doesn't rely on them too much to start. But apparently they are "on" the entire time the ... |

| Thanks for the correction. It has been two years since I did mine and went out to look at my 110 this morning to remember which was which. |

The front UJ's should be installed out of phase, meaning the yokes don't line up. IIRC it's about 45 degrees out of phase in the front, but if you google it you'll find it I'm s ... |

| You should be able to lock up the brakes on your Defender. I had the same issue with mine, and it was due for new disks and pads, but after I did that and bled the lines, I still couldn't lock them up ... |

All I know is that East Coast Rover/USA says on their FAQ page that there is a certain NAS 90 cage not produced anymore... I don't know much about NAS spec either though.

| This is the cage that is often seen on NAS 90s in the States and I think the 50th Anniversary 90? Anyway, I want to put one on my 110 HT to get rid of the bulkhead and have some basic roll over protec ... |
