Got all the bushes for underneath ordered. Was going to go polybush but looking at the prices and the so called benefits......... I'll be sticking with cheapies

Got to lay a floor for someone tomorrow morning then will try and finish my rear bumper in the afternoon. Then it will be onto the tree sliders and tank guard. Lots of nice welding to do unlike the horrible vehicle welding!

ouch that looks like fun, still, relatively easy fix i guess...

got a question on Mods for wales, are there any Mods that people would consider a MUST HAVE for wales?

Decent sized tyres so your not constantly dragging your diff along the ground and getting stuck would be good........

Don't worry. I'll clear a grove with my diff.

I'm going to have a go at changing my autobox oil and filter.
Looking at doing Saturday 15th.
I've already got the oil and will be ordering the filter in the next day or two.
Gearbox Filter Kit (Auto) RTC4653K Island 4x4 - Specialists in Land Rover and Range Rover Parts and accessories for all models. UK and worldwide mail order.
Anyone else want to do theirs at the same time.

Nope as I'm not lazy I have a manual.

On a side note I really want to fit a 4" body lift to mine so I can fit bigger tyres. Is this wrong?

You got to press those in or can you hammer them in. Polybush are silly money if standard are not to much hassle to fit.

How much should I expect to have to pay for a 300tdi Disco chassis?
If I'm gonna lift the body would be foolish not to get a new chassis and have it galved at the same time.

I got my chassis for £150 in pretty much new condition. It was a 200tdi chassis so I did have to cut off the old engine brackets and weld on some new ones.

I went outside to start on some railings I am making for someone.

Co-Pang-Yang · Oct 7, 2011

Not a bad price that.

Brian S · Oct 7, 2011

Plus about £150 for galving, not bad at all.
