What have you done to your Landie today.

suew · Oct 20, 2012

For the first time I can actually say I have done something to my Landy

And I dont mean a garage did, I actually did most of it myself. Well the too tight bolts did need assistance and I was following instructions, but still

She has had new oil, filters, grease and the power steering belt tightened.

So thanks to nrgserv I am feeling quite proud, will have to spend tomorrow soaking the oil off my hands though

Today i spent 3hrs replacing the wiper motor on my 2003 defender td5. The 2nd time in three years!

Has anyone else had their motor burn out so quickly on them?

Replaced my rear one a couple of times, but that's because water was getting in, sealed it up now so should be ok

Put the dog in the back and turned the key and .... nothing! Luckily I knew what it was ... the exciter wire on the starter had popped off so removed heatshield and air filter box to make access slightly easier but still a wrist dislocation to get it back on! Bloody wire!

Technically it was yesterday......fitted three quarters of my new suspension. slowed down by wrestling with the old stuff and having to think of ingenious ways to chop it out. New stuff looks good though. Will finish today and post how it improves the ride.

wanted to finish welding in my blacksheep rear crossmember, but i'm out of flipping welding gas (i also got spatter burns all over my belly lol)

trax · Oct 21, 2012

Got stuck in a field and had a 2a pull me out. Stuck on some bigger xzls with a deeper tread also picked up some series rear bumper protectors to make sure I don't reverse into another wall

Thanks Bud. Getting better all the time, snorkel and great looking spots fitted since that picture was taken. Might have to sell her though

Moving to Oz next year and can't see them letting her in.
