    That's me: Computer, no printer. What am I going to do with a crappy stack of papers anyway? Lousy "solution".

      RN

      I liked it because the diagrams were the same as the "Green Bible" and you could see how they went together and what parts and part numbers were needed and their order if assembly. It was a great resource for me over the years.

            You're welcome! Practice in the testing forum, until you get the image to post.

              Do you still have an out house as well?

              I mean I was a luddite as well. But once you embrace the dark side... no going back.

                  I bet it is cold enough in that outhouse, that you don't sit and read a magazine though! I used to have an outhouse at a camp I owned. there was no taking your time while in there during the winter!

                    If you build a breezeway to the outhouse does it then count as indoor plumbing?

                      I'll give ya that in AK. In the lower 48 though...

                      We once convinced a girl in college that the Michigan UP still didn't have indoor plumbing back in the early 90's. It was pretty funny.

                        Why not just buy the official Land Rover parts catalog? That's what I did years ago and it's massively reduced the frustration level as I look for some ridiculously random little part. If you punch those official numbers into RN's site, you'll get their part number if it's available. Someone wisely cross-referenced the parts with the RN ones. As for the UK operations, most still seem to use the official part numbers, so that's an easy route too.

                        The exploded diagrams in the official catalog are worth their weight. Rovers North site is OK, but they can't match the detail of the diagrams and the extent of diagrams in the original catalog. Last I knew, you could buy the publication from RN. I'm sure you still can.

                            I have the ''bible'',the parts book,the optional parts book and various other books .I was just looking for another Rover related item the I didn't have.
                            Hands down the original parts book is the $hit .
