    I only counted four questions, I spent some time looking for the other 126.

    For all the things you didn't want to know about the V8 diesels, look here:
    6.2/.5 chevy. what are they really like ? - Cummins 4BT Forums

    Isuzu 4BD1T is a much better engine.

    Yeah Pat sounds like it. There is a huge skills shortage over here due to the mining boom. Where is she trying to get a job? If you dont mind me asking.

    Hi Guys, I Have another question [or 2 really] What year did the td5 come out in the defenders? And What year did they remove the centre diff lock in the Defender if they did at all?

    Cheers All Jim.

    Remember... The Defender isn't built for comfort or speed.

    However, if you want to select your destination by sticking a pin in a map (blindfold), Defender is the car you want to be driving.

    Just on a side topic, regarding 130 rear diffs: Some 130's had their standard diffs replaced by Rover with Wolf diffs from the UK.

    There were some issues around 2000/2001 with heavily used 130s destroying the std diff, and LR replaced a number with the military equivalent.

    My 130 apparently has one of these diffs (according to BigJon), and it also has had extra strengthening ribs welded in a V from the bottom of the banjo to the end of the axle.

    Cheers
    David
