Heh, join the club!

Been up since 5, weekdays normal waking time for work, and just couldn't get back to sleep. Trouble is, I'll be asleep about 11am 'cos that's when I'm normally back home and napping before starting back to work again at 2.30pm ...

When I'm away in the caravan or camping I can sleep for England, have a lie-in till pm easily ... can't do it at home!

New Clutch, Rear Crank seal, Full Engine Clean, Degrease, Checked every connection/bolt ect was tight.

Attempted to do front crank bolt, Put the engine in, Attempted Front Crank Bolt again with a 6ft scaffolding bar... Not moving! Still moved the 110 with it in gear, Handbrake on and my Dad Standing on the brakes Battery is flat and charger has died So Cambelt and Injection pump swap when i get that off tommorow. Thinking jamming bar under chassis, Borrowing battery from disco flick the starter and hope it **** it comes off!

Hurah! After almost launching the bonnet across the garden when testing the battery (Left the breaker bar on last night)... It has undone! Flicked the starter a couple of times Wounderrrfullll

Fitted a EGR removal kit and washed the engine bay

Accidentally took mine to a Pay and Play !!

I didn't intend playing, but it was there and I couldn't resist

After renewing the rear breaking system I remembered I needed to grease the wheel bearings.
Just finished stripping the hubs down and greasing the bearings and rebuilding.

While I was under there emptied a can of stone chip on the chassis just for good measure

detuned the boost compensator so i dont shout out to vosa everytime i pull into the cattle market or at least untill i get a bigger cooler fitted

yup - 28 down here.

First off let me apologise if this is in the wrong place. Today i have just brought a serise 3 land rover 109. And have spent the rest of the day/evening looking for a power steering conversion kit. I have checked paddock and craddock and cant find one. Please any tips on where i might be able to get one????????

Mot on my new project and found the A frame adjustable ball joint wont budge= penetrating oil and if that doesn't shift it gas or new one

finally got the rear rollcage hoop legs welded to the chassis (and only blew 1 small hole in the chassis ) to be fair it was a tad ripe in that spot
hope to get the rest of it sorted and a lick of paint by the end of the weekend

Gave her a telling off....tempramental naughty F.L!!!!
