What have you done to your Landie today.

Been thinking about getting a set of these, being the fat bar steward that I am, do you reckon they will be ok?

I put some on mine because I'm 6'1" and fat enough that I couldn't get in the seat without serious abdominal bruising. Now, loads of legroom, don't embarrass myself getting in or out any more, I'd definitely recommend them.

The only trouble is,the handbrake is now so far away, and winding the window needs you to be a contortionist.

:doh:Due to severe hangover (yes, I know it's self inflicted) the landy has only been washed today.:doh:

Whats that mean?

First time this year mate

Walked past mine a couple of times - it's up on axle stands

Stuffed it full of stuff from a car boot sale

Washed it and found a stone chip

Bought a disklok - held off until I bought my new steering wheel, so I got the right size. Just a tracker to go, and I can then sleep easier at night.

Where'd ya buy yours from?? Been thinking of one myself...

Broken it

just changed the rear stub axel oil seal on the passanger side

Moved it 7 miles from the work's yard to the driveway...ready for some serious tlc

Coupled front propshaft back up.

Fitted exhaust downpipe only to find that it touches the chassis in the engine bay....doooh
Have to take it off and fettle it, might cut the soot box off while it's off and put a straight bit of pipe in. (300 tdi Disco exhaust pipe into Defender)

Oh and decided to change the steering box as the one on it is leaking BUT...cant find the keys to get the steering lock off so as I can get the nuts off...doooh

Fitted new seat foam to the drivers back rest. Comfort at last!!!!:lol:

Said good morning to her when off to work and good afternoon coming back from work, she hadn't moved an inch and didn't even clean the dishes, yes I am am on about my 90, on the other hand, that goes for my wife as well.

Today my new galvanised chassis arrived, which has tonight been t washed, etch primed and painted black.

Filled it full of diesel to check the MPG after a leaking pump filter.........still did just over 30MPG in mixed driving

Greased me props and uj's..... in between deciding what ah'm doin' with me bike! Fitted rear springs back into the plunger and stuck the back wheel on

got my mate to bleed my breaks as the pedal hadn't settled after changing the nearside caliper on the disco stops better now

a mate asked if i could pull a section or 2 of fallen tree out of the ditch in his orchard he did'nt dare me or bet me i could'nt manage it but could'nt refuse a challenge like that
ditch was about 5ft deep quite steep sides (would'nt want to put the old 90 in there and try to get it back out )



did'nt need low box and did'nt tare up the grass (with the landy anyway)

Changed the brake fluid - and 2 bleed nipples.
Got a little closer to solving the electrical probs - no power to wipers or headlights.
Made up a bulbs and lenses shopping list.
