Took the bearing out of the squealing AC on the 300tdi, I just have to find n buy a replacement one now. Fixed the knackered and horrible sagging drivers seat with nylon cord and a few giant tie wraps.

The nylon clip nut thing on one of the rear window mechanism fell apart and i couldn't find one anywhere, so after some google'ing and a bit of youtube inspiration ended up with this 10p fix / bodge.

I think you'll find that's treason!!!

Welding.

Bit more welding, then for a change a bit more welding. I need a new mask, I have sunburn! ordered a cheapie from ebay, £20 ish .. should be Ok for the small amount and in frequency of welding that I do .. ebay No 180988430486

Going for a canal trip shortly, then will seal it all and prime it later. All inside the rear so might not give it a full paint job, but will underseal the outside. Looks like me arches will need doing next year!

I've been out trying to put together a list of the things wrong with the newly acquired 1989 RRC. So far, it's a fairly long list.

Fitted new polybushes on a frame. Pig of a job, one bolt came out easy, the other had rusted to the metal sleeve in the bush. Spam endlessly. Tried everything to get it off. In the end I took and angle grinder to the bolt, ate away bit by bit. Took for ever. Horrid job, loads of **** on me. Including rubber from heating the bolt up and it spitting at me :/.

Having real trouble sourcing some break pads for front. Tis a 1989 90 with solid disks. All I can find is 1990 onwards :/ anyone know a part number?

I've never had a problem finding brake pads for mine and mine is a 1987 90. I imagine they would have exactly the same axles. Should be same as discos too. Find a good motor factor and they'll sell you the right ones

discomark10 · Sep 15, 2013

Smashed.. the lost! the front indicator
