started sorting my polybush kit. got the spare radius arms sorted ready to switch over. just got to get the rest of the bushes switched over. know what I'm doing this weekend

Got into work early so treated her to a demon shine spray shine. Then managed to drop my rainex bottle and smashed it all over the floor

got missus and eldest to 'wash' her while I helped youngest sort out a bmx we got from the tip. still ended up washing her myself though as it was worse than it started lol

Fitted replacement diff and for now welded the hole in the diff pan of the rear axle after the diff exploding and punching a hole in the pan

found the problem. my rear diff decided to come say hello. I have a nice hole in my diff pan now. looks like the disco is staying parked up for now then. at least until I get a new rear axle. can anyone confirm if the 4 bolt 24 spline diffs will fit front or rear. or have they got to be for...

OK that knocking and clonking must have been more than the box oils. I have lost all drive unless in diff lock but after a while of diff lock it decided that we needed to stop and brought me to a skidding halt tried again with no d/l got 400yards down the road and lost drive again put it back in...

Wow that's a bit more than I'd expect some shims to sort

Had knocking and clonking on the way home so figured it needed checking. Found that the box breathers must be blocked as both boxes were filled past the mark with watery mayonnaise. Dropped both and renewed and greased props and a frame ball joint. Now just hope that's cured the knocking

I've used halfrauds enamel black with their red oxide primer on my front axle and that's lasted a few trips to yarwell so far. I used to hammerite everything but its crap now so I'm looking for other solutions. Ronseals no more rust is crap aswell. I did my rock sliders and winch bumper with it...

Fishing scales or luggage scales. Take the steering rods off and check how much force the scales read to make it turn via the steering rod connecting holes. It should be between 7-9lbs if its less, and mine would flop then remove the 2 bolts out the top of the swivel pin.(where the brake hose...

Dried my landy out as best I could, got a caravan dehumidifier sorting the rest. Where would I start looking to sort my central locking out. It was working after yarwell. Then this morning it unlocked but now won't do anything by key or fob

Got my landy a bit wet today at yarwell got stuck in the lake. Also somehow managed to get the washer on the trailing arm to slide away from the bush towards the axle so had an interesting drive home in a soggy wandering landy

Repaired my bullbars again welded some more of my chassis. Also made up a rear light bar for my work light and beacons. Got the work light wired up but still need to wire the beacons

Replaced the rearmost uj with a spare I had laying around that's taken care of most of the vibration now just need to check the swivel preloads and hope that cures the rest of it if not then the only thing left is wheel balance

Greased the hell out of the rear prop uj then drove to work with noticeably less vibration so greased the rest of the points underneath and decided tomorrow the uj is getting replaced

Ok just played about with a spare prop end I have laying about to get a better idea of the workings. Looks like I'll be taking some tools into work tomorrow to attack it and get it swapped out and see the difference. Think I may have been thrown off the scent of the problem with fitting the...

The a frame is polybushed to the chassis and has a gwyn lewis adjustable greaseable ball joint. My rear prop does have play in the diff end uj. But would this cause the steering wheel to vibrate?

vibrated to work and back. really need to get on it and check the swivel bearing preload as I am suspecting that. tracking and balancing has been done bearings are fine and trackrod ends. really getting fed up with this vibration. I'm running 2657516 bfg a/t's on freestyle alloys with 30mm...

as above. brake fade is from overheating. generally the fluid boils due too age and it having sucked moisture in from the atmosphere. a change of fluid is a cheap and relatively easy job. due to you having to ask I would guess that your knowledge of the braking system isn't that great so I would...
