Didn't the Ranger have trouble with wires poking out from the casing?
Sorry JR2, not purposely rubbishing your tyres. Keep an eye on them, they should be fine.

Only problem being the squashed wiper arms when it's up there.

Avon "Dangers" was how we referred to them in the 80s...

I didn't like them thirty years ago and I certainly wouldn't fit them now.

Make sure the pedal pivot is not seized - oil it.
Then look to the master cylinder push rod/pedal height adjustment.

Land Rover on dog walking duties today.
I use Land Rover Special Tool number 2, an old floor mop handle with the old sponge plastic head in place without the sponge, for when I need the bonnet open wider. The old mop head spreads the load on the bonnet and the end of the handle fits neatly into the bonnet catch recess, otherwise it's the fitted stay held in place on its pin by an 'R ' clip for normal access.
