Instead of 240v feeding the original motor and pump via the pressure switch. im feeding the pressure switch with 12v then from the switch to the small compresor . So when system up to 120psi it shuts off comes back on when pressure drops to 70psi the air is regulated out at 80 psi to the valves to each set of horns

I did some more on the submarine.

5 hours all in which i didnt think was to bad, never took a 300tdi out before but done a few 325i bmw's.
also washed the raminder of the dessert out of my engine bay whilst i had access, anybody else on here have a problem when wading, with the bellhousing area filling with water? i had a wading plug in but it appears to have got in there through the starter motor shroud.

Smoke and mirrors really, but at least it looks like a reasonably tidy landy.

I've started replacing the seats and seatbelts in the back of mine. The cushions were in poor condition and the frames were bent and corroded. Here's a crosshead screw that's not going to come out without a fight.
In the end it was drilled out and a new rivnut captive nut installed. As were all the other ones in the wheel arches. The seatbelts are in poor condition and I'm not sure why the MOT man passed them last time, but that was before I had the Land Rover.
I have some new ones to put in. Right, let's get the brackets off the old seats and onto the new ones.
And here's a new seat frame and back rest in situ. Naturally, it's not simple. The holes in the backrest don't position the brackets in the right place to engage with that bolt you can see sticking out of the sidelining. New holes needed.
And here's what it looks like with everything in place. I now have fancy inertia reel belts rather than the old floppy ones that wouldn't adjust, and new seats. They're only cheap seats, but then I don't often have people in the back, so they're occasional use jobbies.

Just finished fitting side steps on the wife's Freelander. Job made easier as car must have had steps fitted previously so rivnuts already there.
Took the gas tank and pipes off the 110
Found that the rear cross member is a little
thin in two places.
Its sound everywhere else though so no worries.
Took wings off as well cause I want them for me 90
110 chassis ready to go now
