Fed up with lying in the mud trying to get the oil filter off?
Getting tired hanging by your toes from the fender struggling with the starter?
Worried about adjusting your master cylinders but you just can't face removing the fenders...again?

There IS a better way.
A weekend's work can give you a neat system where the entire front body of the Land Rover swings out of the way to reveal unhindered access to all those nasty little bits that have been hiding away for years.

The approach is simple...mount the rad separately to the frame, bolt the bonnet, fenders and grille panel together and use the existing bonnet hinges to swing the whole assembly up and out of the way.
For really severe engine work, you simply unplug the electrics to the front and slide the entire assembly off the hinges...takes 10 seconds.
The system has been used for years on large commercial vehicles, sports cars and competition machines...things that require a lot of maintenance.. like most Land Rovers.
