Chris, do you have a steering damper relocation kit on that? or anyone else got one going?

I think he has a brand new one still in the package, in the workshop

Co-Pang-Yang · May 30, 2012

Thanks Mike beat me to it. Yes new one in the barn along with 300tdi twin alternator kit and wide angle a-frame joint

Co-Pang-Yang · May 30, 2012

Gearbox was collected today, still got another R380 without TX box for sale.
Guy who took the box is gonna have both axles as well. Not much left now.

Anyone interested in mint door and boot seals (including the always damaged drivers door) and a checker plate boot door cover? Only fitted about a month ago

Brian S · May 30, 2012

I will be interested in the boot seal if its a good one, mine is a bit perished

Does the wide angle a fram joint help with much? May be interested if its up for sale. Also is the chequer plate the internal door card section, my tailgate has no doorcard...

Co-Pang-Yang · May 30, 2012

Ball joint helps with articulation fella.
Yes internal door card section mate, just rivet it straight to the boot.

£50 the pair

Engines nearly out Jon

THE BUDDAH · Jun 3, 2012

Thank you Steamlandy.

Just read your post, thank you for helping and pulling us out it was good fun.
The angle of at which we went down was a bit steep lol though it doesn't look it on the photo.
Between the winch bumper, which was only going south and the tow ball mount, which was properly ploughed in, there was nowhere to go. It was like driving over a garage pit (could of done an gearbox change while i was there...lol)

Also thanks to all the guys who helped with the shovels, great team spirit there.

I'll look out for you all on my travels.

Iv'e got rid of the old towing frame now and replaced it with a tank guard that has a dismountable tow ball.

Don't want to damage my tank.

Once again great guys well done thanks.

Got a full spare set of window regs from a Disco I broke last year so all good no matter how many you need!

Co-Pang-Yang · Jun 3, 2012

Done! I'll pm you when I get back to a computer

No messing around

Jongould · Jun 4, 2012

Looking forward to getting the engine in now, really need to get out on some lanes soon, maybe even a P&P somewhere I haven't done, anyone got any suggestions apart from Bures, EOO, SLROC & the one near southend way?

I shall be getting MM sorted beforehand as well so will be up for a bit of navigating...
