Landrover 90/110 front shockabsorbers - eBay item: 230854374317
Front springs can be acquired from Dai (classicswede) on this forum - http://www.volvo300mania.com/forum-uk/v ... f=8&t=1804
To replace the oil on the front shocks youl need the older style front shocks without inserts. Undo the big nut on the top, drain the oil into a measuring cup, replace oil with exactly the same amount of gearbox oil.

Can't help with anything else, although I understand doing a 360 clutch is a b*tch of a job.

Ahh, yes, it was Classicswede not drift moto who were doing the lowering stuff!

Can the shock mod be done with the units in situ?

Not so good if the 360 clutch is a bugger! Would have expected it to be easy with the box being out the way too!

Unfortunately I think you need to take the strut off, however it's only the 3 on the top mount, one on the track rod and one on the bottom ball joint

The problem with the 360 stuff is it's all bolted together solidly, so you either need to shuffle the engine forward or shuffle the whole of the transmission, inc torque tube and gearbox backwards. I believe everyone moves the engine

Hope this helps, Thomas.........

like this, really want me a 2.3 T

Got some good news.... the 360 turbo drift project is going to be featuring in Retro Cars magazine!

I already contribute to this mag with photography now and again, so this will be a great opportunity to get the car out there and noticed!
It'll probably be a similar idea to the story features that I've done for the Ford mags before with my drift Sierras. For example 6 pages of tyre smoking fun like these ones..





And if that's too much Ford action for you, here's the 360 being collected the night before we used it at Crail there....





I've also just put up a wanted ad' for a few small bits...

Awsome! be the second 360 in retro cars. Mine was in there last year sometime

Your Adam Brannan?! Awsome I have "liked" your fb page for ages, always loved your photos! You might have heard of my mate harry charnock, hes done some work for retro cars

Meant to say i had some chopped sierra springs on mine for a while, much stiffer obvs and handled quite well

Cheers!
And it's "Adrian Brannan" actually

you say adrian...I might have had too much to drink

Love the photos mate! 360 clutch is a bit of a pain, Whole car needs to be up on stands then bellhousing, torque tube and gearbox/diff need to be dropped (apparently you can keep the box mounted but have to unmount the fronts of the leafs on the back?) I was swapping the lot when I did mine to fit an LSD. Reckon it takes a day to do the clutch - maybe less if your not working outdoors in the mud lol

Hi mate .
Let us all know when the car is featured so as i can go out and but the mag.
Cheers Mark.

All change, the 360 stays!
