Big day for the Landy. It's a 100" hybrid, 200tdi truck cab defender. It's been mechanically well put together but suffers from electrical gremlins.
New set of boost alloys and 265/75/16's Maletesta's.
CB installed and setup.
Pre heat relay wired in.
Horns installed.
General wiring fixes.

Cut and fitted some aluminium checker plate treads to the tree sliders on my 90.
Not a big fan of checker plate but I suppose this is what it was designed for.
Took the heater temperature and distribution levers off and straightened them out. I have no idea why Land Rover put the little kink in them, straightened out they are much easier to operate.
