Thread: Need advice

not a bad little rig! I like it.

Like others have said, read through lots of threads. Google is also a really good resource, I find lots of stuff that way. Google images is great as well!!! You can find pics of "how that thingy" goes back in

I'm working on one of these at the moment. my thread is in the members section - Nick's 1975 Series 3 SWB

I'm by no means a mechanic (actually I'm a music teacher) but I just read my manual, read some threads, use google and a bit of fiddling around and I figure out most stuff. If not I put a panicked thread on here for some experienced person to answer.

Good luck with your project, make sure you keep posting those pics so we can steal ideas for our trucks!

EDIT: I find the parts manual an awesome resource as well - you can find the part number and google that! the part number for my book is RTC9841 CE - but that's a series 3 book (mostly the same but would be better to get the right one for your car) here's a link to what I have [ame]http://www.ebay.com/itm/1972-1985-Land-Rover-Series-III-Illustrated-Parts-Book-Catalog-Catalogue-/161360844364?pt=Motors_Manuals_Literature&hash=ite m2591db164c[/ame]

They are not that hard. Ralph was a lot of fun to rebuild but then people (especially the wife) tell me I am strange to find it fun and /or therapeutic!. Just do one thing at a time and zip lock bags,ice cream containers and permanent markers are the best for not forgetting what went where. All the guys here are great for a bit of info if you get stuck. And remember, rule no.1 PHOTO'S, PHOTO'S PHOTO'S!
