Other what have u done on ur disco today

Great result, took her for her MOT today the first since 2007, she passed with flying colours and no
Advisory’s,

Replaced the old LED sidelights that had failed ages ago but I'd just never got around to replacing them out of sheer lazyness

I've used standard bulbs this time as I never did like the blueish tinge to the LED ones.

Disco 4
This week added bodsys fbh remote
Added mood lights in the drivers door
Half way through fitting a reversing camera
Added 4x4 screen

Nothing on mine but rewired and installed LED lights on my lads 90. Im on Covid isolation, due to wife and daughter testing positive, so finding lots of things to fill my day, I had no time for whilst at work....

Ordered 16x8 modulars and 265/70/16 AT tyres for my disco 2! Hopefully be here for the weekend.
Then I’m looking at a snorkel... any recommendations

Should be good for the snow we've had...

I attacked my d1 with tiger seal. I have dry footwells again. Happy days.

only drove back 1 mile from the garage back home so abit early to tell.

Weather permitting fitting new rear shockers tomorrow as driver side is fubar!

I swore at mine, as the less than 12 month old rear wiper motor from Craddocks stopped working.... motors operating, but nothing moving..

When I fitted the same set to my D2 it made the ride more compliant and the tram-lining completely disappeared thanks to the increased sidewall height.

The old girl passed her MOT.

I sometimes wonder if mine would pass an MOT.

Fitted new steering damper
Fitted rear shock absorbers
Cleaned out red connector on ECU with contact cleaner
Soaked the steering UJs with WD40 - slight notch starting to occur so hopefully nothing too serious to worry about just yet

Nothing on my Disco, but replaced the steering arm, and one of the steering ball joints on my lads Defender TD5. Steering damper, and the remainder of the joints to do for him soon.

Need to sort out my handbrake asap. Did a 400 mile round trip to Suffolk this week, to service a fire alarm. Applied the handbrake whilst in a traffic queue, and the lever wouldnt return to its resting position. Cable stuck fast, but brake luckily isnt applied. Deep joy.

Drained the gearbox a week or two ago, and it was brimmed with emulsified oil water. This week, following my long road trip, this morning the gearbox decided it had lost the will to live. Lots of grinding noise, when under load... must be terminal. Anyone got one for sale..

Stripped out the motor, and found the connecting pin on the large plastic cog had sheered off..
