What a waste of time :(

If your looking at Disco's this one had caught my eye. I had asked a few pointed pointed questions, claimed rust is not too bad. No sunroofs, manual, non ABS, non EDC). low mileage.

I've decided to stick with the fender for a bit and see if I can make it family friendly before winter. I've brought a new roof for it, no sunroof or alpines).

I've got a brand spanker I keep for spare or a used one you can take as long as you replace it sooner rather than later?

I'm in no hurry to collect (unless its in your way), next two weekends are busy. Do you want me to paypal you the money?

If so PM me your account address and I can get it transferred as a gift.
 
Started fitting my winch and winch bumper on saturday but it was total mare :( My steering guard also uses the bumper mounting points so its a case of fitting 2 things in the same place :D Had to modify the guard with an angle grinder but when just getting it into place i noticed it fouled the bumper somewhere else :Cry:

So it needs to come back off for some more fettling :(

I am also experimenting with the spare filter housing i got off Brian (cheers mate). Looking to remove the oil cooler from the oil circuit. No major improvement just something to do :D Should tidy up the bay a bit without the hoses there, its one less place to leak and should make it easier to change the oil filter. In the place where the pipes attach I am going to fit the senders for oil pressure and temp guages. Later on I can then fit a full width ally rad with a FMIC in front of it :)
