Land Rover tech tips / articles for Land Rover repair and modification

Technical tips and topics on Land Rover modifications for the defender, discovery and series landrover.  Snorkels, preparing for wading, steering guards, CB radio, running on veg oil, welding repairs to bulkheads and door frames and much more to come!  Both myself and Mrs Landyworld are currenty running 300tdi discoverys.  As is usual with Land Rovers, there are many little jobs to be done - I will update this page as I attempt to keep on top of the discovery repairs and maintenance.
