:pI love it I’ve been planning my next one for years down the line and underfloor heating and a ramp as even though workshop is warm the concrete floor is freezing :confused: and don’t have the headroom for a ramp

Yeah the killer is standing in cold concrete floor.

Make a raised wooden deck from pallet slats in front of the work bench - helps no end!

 
I suppose it is :) Wow, I wonder how many people have garages with underfloor heating :cool:
When I was doing my rebuild (outside on the drive I hasten to add) my son bought me a tank operator's quilted onesy from an online Germany Army surplus shop. Only cost about £4 :eek: It was very warm though! However, I think I might need to raise my aspirations :D
ive got some of those they are good but zips have bust and are hard to find in large
 
I will check them out wouldn’t expect a brand new chassis to be worn after such a short time but every little thing will be checked. It’s only way really to do any fault diagnosis years of working on valves and pumps have taught me that check check and check again Thanks Flossie
The worn holes are in the axle casings not the chassis.
 
Finally got my Defender put back together and started first thing I did was rock the steering back and forth The body was moving before the wheels And could see the panhard rod move about unbolted it to replace the bushes as so many had suggested. It turns out wasn’t the bushes it was the bolts I had fitted M14 stainless as that’s the size for my year but I’d changed the axle and panhard rod for later ones and they take M16 :oops::oops: this was what’s causing my problem even though everything was tight there’s play with the weight of the Landy.
 
I've already mentioned it but it's important to check the bolt holes for the phr are still the correct size and not worn allowing the rod to move even with new bushes.
Everyone of my bolt holes on both axles have worn and been repaired by me. The rear arms ones caused some interesting steering on acceleration and de-acceleration!
The bolts can also wear as they move about in the worn holes.
