Checked all the lights ready for MOT:
- one indicator side repeater not working - just a bit manky inside - sorted.
- one front side light very dim - full of water - new bulb and sorted (for the moment).
- rear indicator very faded - replacement...
Took my TD5 out for a drive. It is now pretty much rattle free after adjusting the rear end door and passenger door.
Also the new drop arm seems to have improved the steering kick back on pot holes. I'm happy with the little improvements.
That reminds me, need to top up the brake fluid.
Does anyone know how regularly brake fluid should need to be being topped up? I’m about a month and 3k miles in and am needing to top up again. Would that indicate a leak somewhere or is that...
Sitting at the table drinking a beer surfing the net, its been a hard day :D.
Oh sorry:). Eastern Bulgaria, Half way down the coast, and inland a bit. 1hr from Varna.

Didn’t do, but did use it to open the second access to our front parking place.
See that big lump left by the nice man in the plough :rolleyes:.
If you think I am busting a gut shovling for a couple of hrs you are mistaken.
Sorted in 30sec👍.

Fitted a new drop arm which may or may not be an Adwest one.
Looked at the new track rod (and ball joints) but didn't fit it. Brand new Delphi for £30 on Ebay, bargain.
I picked up a slow puncture on Friday. I can’t get it fixed until Tuesday due to availability of the local tyre place so I’ve been pumping it up daily. 🙄

With and without the lid.
Headlining now need replacing as it sadly died during the making of the above. But it’s going to look spot on once done.
Great driving it without the roof 👌🏼👌🏼
Presumably you can unlatch the glass and take it out?
You could mount a decent machine gun on your front roof rail.
Who, (sorry what) are you going to be shooting?
Some bloke 🤔 knocked on the door and asked if the “jeep” could get him out of a pickle;).
Apparently a friend couldn’t help (out of town) but he said to go see us.
Anyway only 5mins out the back and he’s in deep. It would have looked like an...
Light covers are a go. Very very happy with how they look. Particularly with the DRL’s.
Just about in for the big chop on the roof for the shooting hatch 😬🤞🤞.
Will report back later in the week with progress.
Ok amazing, that’s super helpful thanks.
I’m going to be running 265/75/16 BFG AT’s.
Thinking of just totally binning the challenger idea now as I like the dished version, but am not willing to have them sticking out of the arches and...
