Stu, what time do you leave for work

Once it was cleaned up it didn't look too bad.
I've also increased the ground clearance under my steps - really is time they came off

I have no weekends free for the next fortnight and working all daylight hours. So its @ the garage in a corner (didn't want to leave it on the road in current condition) and when when they get time between jobs it'll be beaten out. One of the chaps down their breaks rusty Disco's so 2nd hand parts (inc alternator) shouldn't be an issue. Just means my snorkel fund will be reduced

Once someone local starts to break a dark blue D1, i'll replace the wing, until then, beaten out it will stay.

Where is this guy who breaks landrovers? Have you tried rgb near Brentwood? He probably has all the bits you need and in the right colour.

Co-Pang-Yang · Feb 23, 2011

Did rgb have any 300tdi indicators when you went there Brian?
Need to change my broken bonnet release cable too really.

Dolly Disco is back on the road

Brian S · Feb 23, 2011

Depends if my head gasket is fooked or not. May be SORN next month while it gets sorted.

Will have to check the rota at work and find out for next week.

Discodad · Feb 23, 2011

Depending on weather, I may take a drive up to Debenham ford on Saturday. I've got the keep the kiddies entertained. they not into laning (too bumpy) but i think they would enjoy driving up a river.

Last time i went, it was 6 - 8 " but it hadn't rained in ages. could be a bit higher now?

Probably a bit higher. Had quite a lot of rain

Nice to hear you got the Disco fixed. It's not a too bigger job. Wings just unbolt so it's not the end of the world

Maybe you need to treat yourself to a wrap-around bull bar now

I'm not a fan of bull bar's. But I am now on the lookout for a HD or winch bumper. I fear my one is a lot weaker now its already been bent once. come to mention it I don't think it was very strong before i bent it:doh:

So if anyone has one for sale - please PM me.
Must be wrap around - something like this would be nice: LINK
