Hello, A JE90,G4LE and a Semi Space frame to join in?
Evening,

Been meaning to join here for sometime. We're racking up a lot of miles in the Puma, the 110 has the odd wobble and the V8 is just, well odd.

Have a feeling some of this new fangled stuff that produces new fangled faults could cause some head scratching and this forum seems very handy for picking of brains. Bow down

Our 3 (there are other Series motors in the stables as the sig pic says but that's not for this forum obviously!)

And my V8 90 Semi framed job - originally built for racing and now used for trials as well. Engine is so far back the transfer box is in the back of the motor!

And the leaf sprung rallying one. :whistle:

Cheers guys,

It's only the leafers I've rebuilt. I only got the V8 the other year although I do know the chaps that did build it and it's as if they looked at how Land Rover design and build a 90 and then do the opposite.

It's how I would do it. Twin pumps, coils,fans and everything accessible and at 6ft tall I only just big enough to reach all the controls there's so much room. Bizarre for a 90! 90XS Tdci John Eales

Just the rally car I hope? I was going to try and keep the whole leafers and coilers thing seperate between here and OLLR.

Cheers Thud,

2.6Khz You might even see the leaf sprung part of the fleet at "that place" now and again. The rally motor really really doesn't like being at at less than 20mph for any length of time. It'll do it but with a lot of pedal modulation as it's either on or off! 90XS Tdci John Eales
