Today to me Defener I...

Gonna replace my drop arm joint as it is nackered like the step by step pics you have really helpful where did you get the kit from buster?
 
Today I fixed my xfer box linkage so it will shift into low. Linkage had snapped on the box end, and the lever was seized in the housing on the box. I don''t think the PO used low range much, if ever.
 
Replaced my reverse light switch... had to go asking the neighbours for nuts though...

Mine didn't have the locking one!
 
Recently put new door seals on the old bucket. Drove to work warm and dry in a torrential downpour, after it sitting overnight out in same. A dry Defender...didn't think such a thing was possible . :)

Took the spare wheel and wheel carrier off the back door! Utter bliss when driving around now! No more bang clunk rattle rattle over each bump! :)

Rear door is fecked mind
 
Started the V8 to drive to work but let the revs drop and it conked out. Would not start again - guess I flooded it ; "hashtag" retro motoring
 
Covered the head lining with van carpet. Looks a treat, after the saggy grey dirty vinyl version I had before.
