Fitted some tinted side repeaters...go me!!

Painted the bottom layer (desert sand) of the camo job at the weekend tho. Looks mega!

Left the Defender, with two sheared stub axle bolts, in my Brother-in-laws Joinery workshop, bless him got a call at 3pm 'I'm bored, can i have a go at getting your bolts out?' 'Fill your boots' I said, now just got to clean everything up and slot back together tomorrow afternoon

Went out tae take me wheel carrier and bumperettes off tonight so's ah could rub the rear x-member down fur paintin'. Thought tae mesel'.. bugger it! and started rubbin' down the bits ah could get to. Found a couple o' dodgy bits and cut thum them out...





Bollix!! Could've done without that!

mine gone on jacking points but tacked up

Cleaned clutch fluid off the drive... Slave cylinder went pop yesterday morning.

Fitted Synergy 2, Pierburg MAF (bloody anti-tamper screws), 12S socket on towbar. Higher capacity battery.

Tomorrow its to get an extra light and an accessory power socket in the back, fit an iPod adapter and try and get the steering column radio controls to work with the Pioneer head unit I fitted a couple of months ago.

It's great to be able to work outside again.

I cleaned all the muck out from behind the rear lights. Then made a cover to stop them filling up again.

Changed me Disco fuel filter, took about 2 minutes and after priming with the lift pump lever she started again straight away and hasn't missed a beat.
Not usually that lucky, no air locks or spilled diesel this time

Might do the oil etc tomorrow if it's nice

Refitted the steering drop arm ball joint, started this last night and gave up!!, much fun was had getting the old top cup out and the new one fitted but we got there eventually! steering now feels much better.

Replaced the anti roll bar ball joint links and changed the headlights to try and keep the mot tester happy tomorrow.

oh and fitted a shiny new steering guard that won't be so shiny after the weekend i'm sure!

What jobs you got lined up for this weekend then?

I'll be replacing the slave cylinder and going to collect my gear box

I've finshed me welding and fitted new hinge bolts to both me front doors. Sprayed the inside of bulkhead with waste oil.

Very pleased me

Soon be time for an MOT
