What have you done to your Landie today.

removed the side step an stupid plastic trim from the drivers side sill, and took a grinder to the rust. little bit more than i thought but easily repairable with some patches. managed to get the first patch on then it started to rain so il carry on tomorrow!! might actually get round to fixing the front wing back on properly aswell :doh:

Been and fetched it a nice shiney undercarriage complete with new everything.

fitted new suspension, dislocation cones, extended brake hoses and bump stops, cleaned and painted the diff guards and fettled the exhaust so it sits level

put in a new fluorescent lamp on the dog guard cos "I cant read Top Gear Turbo in the back with that rubbish little light"!! And installed the pipework for the water tank that I am yet to buy

took yer fooking time dint ya?

Glad it's sorted mate.

I emptied another 6 sacks of wood out the back of mine. It's like the fookin tardis. I took 6 sacks out yesterday plus todays 6 and there's still another 4 to go. The ballast is using it all week as the chav mobile's in the bodyshop. I had a nasty feeling that she might have tried to roll it with half ton of wood in the back.

Well, i made up a very nice throttle linkage for my 2.5 di transit engine and fitted it. whilst i was doing this i made especially sure i didnt lose the little spring which locks the ball and socket joint together.
lovely job, then i knocked the spring off the wing!
and spent a pointless hour trying to find it AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!
