and i got them working again! next job is the blade rewiring.. but it's frickin cold so i'm going to stick a leccy heater in it from the house :violent:

Pikey took apart the ambulance heater fan just to make sure it will never work again

Sealed upsome holes and re-sealed some roof seams and sorted the numberplate illumination light.

So close to sorting the mot failure list I'm going to go for it to avoid paying for a retest

You can do it on your drive with only a 1/4" ratchet and a spanner

did they test it after you'd fully charged it back up?

Cleaned it a bit ...

Finally got an alloy wheel to match the four 18" ones. The "spare" on the Disco 2 was a 16" - worked fine though due to the different tyre profiles giving the same overall rolling diameter. However, it's nice to have a matching set.
£30 via ebay. Just need to get a tyre on it now

Keep both Look what happened out laning, two spares is good

Ta Sue. I was thinking of selling the 16" wheel & tyre, but you do have a point.

Took mine in for its French MOT. I knew it would not pass as the foot wells need replacing, however it failed on a warn steering joint and the rear brakes pulling to one side and a rear wheel bearing needs tightening. No mention of the foot wells. I will get them done anyway. Not bad for a 23 year old vehicle.

I have a 1990, 200tdi. 110 defender. Anyone know how you can tell if I have 10" or 11" rear drum brakes without having to take the wheel off an measure them. I'm feeling lazy and its cold out there.
