dislikes ?

[Fusion]

Ok , so i have done a couple of threads with who , why , what and when with your 2 and 2a machines . So what are your dislikes with your landys ?

My dislike of the 2a is the axles ( can be fixed with a sals diff ) .

Howdy Troy , After i started the thread i thought that would be the very first answer to be posted .

1. The bolts that have rusted. (angle grinder can fix)
2. The bolts the angle grinder can't get at. (Dremel to the rescue)
3. The 6 dremel blades that I use on 1 rusty bolt.
4. The rusty bolt that looks easy to remove with angle grinder.
5. The very sore thumb when I find it's not as easy as I thought.

I don't like rusty bolts.

Everything else I can live with - the oil leaks, the money spent, the mystery burning wire, the noise, the smell of EP90, the lack of brakes, the armstrong steering, the heat, the cold, the spiders & did I mention oil leaks????

I like the way people get out of my way now.

Not a lot I dislike about it. The electrics in general could be improved, and better fuel economy would be nice, but most of the faults are simply a result of its being nearly forty years old.

A few built in problems I have fixed, the most obvious one being to replace the generator with an alternator. I have never broken an axle, although i recognise the possibility of doing so.

There actually isn't much in particular that I like about it to be honest. What do I dislike? The power when I bought it, the gearbox, the smell, the way it drives, the suspension, the way the body is held together, the way it drips oil, the electrics, the brakes, the dash, the seats, the doors, the windscreen, the windows, the steering wheel and the steering, the noise the accellerator makes every time it hits the floor, the way the clutch works, the noise that it makes, the way it vibrates, the way nothing seals, the headlights... or any other light, the handbrake, the carby leaking dry when parked for a few days.....

I'm not sure why I like it to be honest, because I can't logically explain it.

It's probably because I built it.

Oh, and the windscreen wipers.... what the hell are they!

[Blknight.aus]

The only thing I dont like aobut mine is this frelling house Im living in...

Everytime I get enough funds together to do something with her something needs doing to the house..........

The other dislike i have with the 2 and 2a is ..... you don't see enough of them on the road . That and i don't have a land rover shop next door

G'day All, Those of us who are fortunate enough to have 7 or more Land Rovers on the road, what irks me is that I can only drive them 1 at a time cheers Dennis
