Aaron, Depression is a horrible illness I've suffered from it most of my life and it's taken me to some dark dark places but like you I recently started cycling and have found that the exercise helps not just physically but mentally much better than any pill from a doctor. I'm pleased you have...

I messaged him today and shared a link to show the revival of this thread. He's doing good and been very busy but says he will pop back and say hi once he has a chance. He was chuffed that everyone is still asking after him and a bit surprised.

Not sure if he's living in France or has just been travelling I will send him a link to this thread and maybe we can tempt him back he could tell us about his adventures and post the pics in AG

What grade are your bolts to deform like that are they 8.8? Might be worth going for higher grade 10.9 Headlights look great in fact the whole Land Rover looks great compared to how it looked 3 years ago.

I'm friends with him on Facebook think he's given up on rebuilding Land Rovers. He has been posting pic recently of abandoned French Chateau's some the pics he has been posting are stunning and a lot of the places look like the owners just up and left leaving behind most of their belongings.

I used silent coat and used 2 boxes total of 80 sheets @ 375mm x 250mm each sheet to do the front off my 90. Hope this helps.

There is a gasket but when i did mine the new gasket also leaked so removed it and used Loctite RTV sealant no more leaks. https://www.cromwell.co.uk/shop/adhesives-and-sealants/gaskets-and-jointing/598-high-performance-rtv-silicone-gasket-maker-300ml/p/LOC7255378W You can get it in smaller...

I could fabricate one myself no problem as I'm a qualified welder/fabricator but I chose to buy one because I didn't have the time to spend fabricating one or proper facilities and didn't want to end up in a legal mess with insurance. And yes I have declared that I've replaced my chassis like...

No nothing to do with accuracy lol :D:D

It definitely wouldn’t be straight or square working off the ground like that would need a decent level fab bench to have half a chance getting it right. Maybe that’s the witchcraft chassis manufacturers use to ensure their chassis are perfect :oops::oops::oops:
