What have you done to your Landie today.

Had all the bits delivered to do the rear wheel bearings and oil seals tomorrow

Used the hi-lift to pull out some shrubs from in front of school!

Cleaned (the horror!) some of the mud out from the inside.. it's beginning to dry .. Methinks carpets will soon be replaced with rubber matting. I've already, long ago, removed the sponge stuff that's supposed to be insulation but is actually the best water retaining stuff I've seen!

Looked at taking the dickie seats out of the boot, looked awkward so decided it could wait.

Got some steel to look at fabbing up a hydraulic (Jack) press and bumper ...

Finished the side exit exhaust...







It's not that much louder...well, not at tick over... It does sound more purposeful when setting off... And really good when trying to pull something heavy/stuck... Not bad considering it stands me at sod all

Cubby box fitted. Headlamp bezel was rotted through so got some new ones then ran out of time. So they get fitted tomorrow.

Fixed my indicators and changed the front dif oil as the rear diff plug is jammed on!

Walked out the house at 05:00 this morning to come to work in the company car and saw my Landy with a twinkle in her headlights... so brought her out for the day

After being on SORN since january, I finally taxed her and took her for a drive, good run down the motor way to warm her up

Took some Freelander and Dog photos
Gorgeous

Taxed mine too.... £220 quid for a year. At least the moneys going towards promoting offroading. Well they are making some cracking bombholes in the roads round here.

As I'm off away in it at Xmas I can't have it running out on 31st December. Plus its saved 20 quid. Robbing gits. Can't believe they charge you that much extra for a 6months one.

Replaced all my pads, without jacking up or removing wheels, landys r great spesh with a lift and chunky tyres

Came home to find both front tyres flat as flat things ...

Luckily it just seems to be mud between tyre and rim, we did some awesome mud runs and hard lanes in North Yorks, and when I checked them the other day I pumped 'em all up to usual pressures, so think I must have 'moved' the bits of muck and maybe broke the seal!

No leaks detected after a pounding on the tyres with a lump hammer and pumping them up again ..

Away for a week now so hope they'll be OK!
