cos I sold my Sankey trailer I have an old N.A.T.O. HITCH including bolts for sale £20 collected from Northumberland.

Read a few of the threads here regarding the good old TD5 and I must say even with all the faults I'm still smitten. (Or is that raving mad? not sure.....)
 
Just picked a 2000 TD5 Auto, with all the bells and whistles, head gasket blown so in for a replacement gasket, skim and pressure test, or at worst head, block etc.
 
Also thinking of doing the other nasties whilst I am at it, you know:-
 
Cam chain
Injector wiring loom
oil pump bolt
Water pump
EGR removal
Injector seal replacement
 
 
So it will be good bye to my trusty Range Rover V8 in a few weeks, I had fun fitting an new V8 unit from RPI engineering 28k ago, so someone will get a nice 4 x 4 for sure.
 

The objective is to have a reasonably priced TD5 Auto in a few weeks which will be by new 'Devil I know' go anywhere motor.
Anyone else got anything to add to the above list whilst I am under the hood

just want a bit of info im putting a winch on my defender any one know which is the best one to fit i also need a front winch bumper

Folks,
 
I'm still looking around for a 4x4 and I've clocked a Discovery with decent mileage, good price and in good condition,
 
Is there much to worry about with these wagons, any serious reliability issues? I know it will be fairly heavy on fuel but other than that, anything to look out for?
 
Cheers
