Always been careful with my back.
When I left school and did my apprenticeship in the print, the old boy who taught me was always going on about 'lifting stuff' properly.
Then, about 2 years ago, the bus company I was working for stuck 'ye olde buses' on my route with fooked drivers seats, within about 5 weeks my back was in agony!!
Physio has helped alot, but still not quite right, yet.
hiya.
ive since owning land rovers always enjoyed working on them
starting many years ago replacing my first clutch on a series 3, whilst putting a piece of rope round my neck and lifting the gearbox back.
over the years my back has got worse, until one day whilst at work as a oil gas engineer lifted a big old cast iron boiler twisted and smashed 5 x discs.
my days now with working on land rovers is over, with the daily use of a walking stick and when i go out have to use a wheelchair, im only 47 and now am seriuosly restricted in what i do.
as when i was younger i felt i was superman, could lift anything and it wouldnt happen to me.
i was wondering how many of you guys have also destroyed your backs, in also seeing that land rover parts are alwaysso heavy due to them being built for rough work.
just hope you take care of your backs guys as have enclosed a picture of what happens when you dont take care.
would hate for someone to go through what i go through on a daily basis, with people looking at me whilst sitting in a wheelchair, then talking to my wife about me as though im not there.
hope you dont think im trying to lecture anyone but please be careful out there.
very curious of many of you out there have also destroyed your backs.

Christ you guys have been doing the same when I useto mess around with the landies
Its the sheer misery of wishing to get on with messing around with the landy and your body says Yeh right"
Have been wishing for months to take off my rear wheels wire brush my brake drums and spray them. But just can't do it anymore
Everytime I see them it drives me nuts, know it sounds daft but won't only look nice but more practically will get all the loose **** off around the alloy wheels
Bought some heat proof paint that you put onto cast iron boilers in black so should be ok
Even the wife had a go for me but bless her she's on 4 foot 11

Even trying to wash my car I can't do anymore, but then I took it through a car wash and it destroyed the aerial base, won't do that again
It even says in the manual that a 5 door can go through a car wash but not a 3 door
Erm I now know why, but when I bought another earial base, 30 quid I overtightened it and had to get another one
Expensive mistake , I did have a cheap one fitted before that so bought a genuine one , still find the reception not to be brillant
Wish there was some form of booster etc or if there is one it can't be working

Antibiotics costing just £114 may cure chronic back pain in 40% of patients in medical breakthrough 'worthy of a Nobel Prize' | Mail Online
Is this the same Mail that declares a cure for cancer several times a year?
Just wondering....
