Well plans changed again as usual, I've gone and bought some modular steels and new arches due to my old ones feeling like sandpaper and fading

Its been a while and had many issues since last update, I've been remapped by Gareth at Empire Tuning, Oil cooler had to be replaced, exhaust studs replaced as one had snapped, I've still got to do the fuel pump as its not pushing the amount of fuel required for the remap and the rear bags slowly leak.

But then isn't there something always wrong with a Land Rover o_O

That's very true its never plain sailing, always something to fix
Mines the same just done a trip upto yorkshire from stafford done nearly 500 miles and they only thing that went wrong is a slight knocking on the rear propshaft hopefully an easy fix but it's never straight forward.
 
Due to this lockdown I've decided to spend some money and treat the D2.

So far I've ordered:

- Auto box oil and filter kit
- Diff and transfer box oil with new copper fill plugs
- New gasket to re-do the oil cooler gasket due to it now leaking and causing me issues
- Rear mudflap brackets as they are rusted trough and causing the rear quarters to flap about
- Heavy duty steering arms
- Heavy duty adjustable panhard rod
- New boost / intercooler pipes
- Thermostat
- Water pump
- Crank sensor due to a non start issue a couple of weeks ago
- Rear air suspension bags
- Polybush kit as I believe mine are all worn


And I think that is it for now, I now have a busy week ahead of me haha

Been out for a few drives and all seems well no oil leaks might have a very small water leak but not sure as water hasn't dropped
