P38A bars are available here: http://hardrange.com/catalog/1 But I do like this modified D2 ARB Sahara bar:

Re: 100% Proof that liners are moving at 'normal' operating temps & causing the tapping! The pic I posted of a slipped liner is from a 3.9. I do have a spare early 4.6 block here (minus main bearing caps - I bought it for the crankshaft) so I could strip it down and heat it up. The block was...

Re: 100% Proof that liners are moving at 'normal' operating temps & causing the tapping! A dead bug. :) A comment was made to me that is it possible that turbodave's engine had been overheated by the previous owner and would this have had an effect on the liners?

Re: 100% Proof that liners are moving at 'normal' operating temps & causing the tapping! Whether it is only an issue on later engines or also the older 3.9 blocks used in the Discovery 1 and the RR Classic, I don't know. When I bought my P38A in 2002, it had 117,000km on the odometer and I...

Probably a bit late now but see http://www.rangerovers.net/repairdetails/radiolcd.html Ron

Where are you located (country?). In Australia, these are readily available and are called PolyAir springs. I understand the samethings are made in the USA by Firestone. See http://www.ride-rite.com/ProductInfo.htm They work very well and are a relatively common fitment down here. Ron
