What have you done to your Landie today.

Steam cleaned the underside and engine bay within an inch of its life.

Industrial steam cleaners are the future. This thing went up to 300 degrees but decided 150 was more than enough.

Also nipped to Kettering to pick up my eBay bargain X-Eng transmission brake.
The callipers on these things are monstrous!!

Yodel were called Home delivery network before they changed names.

The parcel has been sat for a week in one of their depots down south, only becuase i contacted them daily and the seller did have we found the parcel, i had this same issue with city link a few weeks back when i was waiting for track rod ball joints.

Roya mail/parcel force may cost more but at least you know the parcels will arrive.

scobbie232 hope fur yur sake it aint yodel.....as they are pish, been on the phone again!

nope definatly dpd DPD (UK) - Express parcel delivery - Next day UK, European and international parcel delivery services.
bit I like best is they text you in the morning of delivery and tell you what hour they will be with you (and even the drivers name lol) so you don't have to be sat around all day.

Got a seat fit in the boot for my brother's bloody fiance.




An expense I could have done without, but a great job done by CSK Land Rovers, he even painted and waxoiled the bolt holes at no extra cost

take it that comment was aimed at me? would u like to elaborate.

The postman helpfully pointed out that one of my brake lights wasn't working so I went in search of new bulbs. Having found a likely packet in Halfords I succeeed in dropping one on the ground and breaking it whilst my hands were full of light lens, screws and screwdriver. Fortunately there are two in a packet, so we're all lit up properly now.

That's looking like it's going to be very sturdy. That metal looks to be 5 or 6 mm thick. I haven't quite got my bearings here. Are these intented to bolt to the engine block so you can use the original chassis brackets?
