I just compiled a list of what I really should do before we leave and I have loads to do luckily my pop is away and I can steal his driveway to do the work on mabe rig up a waterproof thingy if need be. I have really neglected the old girl of late!

So far I have:

Alternator,
Eng oil, Filter, slick 50,
Transferbox output seal,
Transfer box oil molyslip,
Gearbox oil,
Diff oils.
Front diff pinion seal,
Possibly change rear axle time permitting should be ok. (Rear diff pinion seal on new axle).

Loads to do but for a change plenty of time to do it. Girlfriend Permitting LOL!

Fit extended breathers and tidy up the snorkel and air filter
 
b and q look in the garden section for their inline connectors they are a bit cheap and nasty though or you can try rs catalogue they have some decent ones Jai
 
Hey Jai,

a maintenance weekend sounds like a fine plan!

If you want a little shelter we can always clear some room in the garage. You'll only get the bonnet in there though
 
I may well take you up on that. I was intending on using my dads driveway and the back of his garden. I just dropped off the landy there today i'll try and get a start tomorrow morning mabe whip the axle off and get the cranked trailing arms and bushes pressed in hopefully. If you get chance your welcome to come around I'll be playing with something landy-like probebly all day.

If it starts to **** it down propper! My uncle has a purpose built workshop I could use just means I have to move the boat to one side. he has a forcourt enough for a landy, two if it was cleared of stuff. it used to be Andys Workshop when he worked for himself. Jai

Things To Consider Before Optimizing Your Videos For YouTube
Important Facts
1. Read How To Shoot and Edit Videos For The Web.
2. YouTube (newest) recommended settings are:

MPEG4 (DivX, Xvid) format

640x480 resolution

64k Mono or 128k Stereo MP3 audio

30 frames per second

3. Your source video needs to be ideally high resolution. For instance: MOV or AVI file, NTSC 720x480 or VGA 640x480.

4. It's very important that you keep an aspect ratio of 4:3, otherwise the quality of your video will be degraded. Flash 7 codec performs best when the frame width and height use multiples of 16. This is optimal for video playback.

5. You need to get a high quality video encoder. Keep in mind that most video editing programs such as Apple Final Cut Pro, iMovie, Adobe Premiere Pro, Windows Movie Maker or Sony Vegas, come with an encoding engine so you can export your videos directly from the timeline.

6. In Normal Mode, YouTube resizes your videos to 320x240 pixels, encodes them to Flash 7 at a data rate of approximately 250 kbps and compresses audio to mp3 (22.050 KHz, monophonic).

7. YouTube has updated its technology, and now you have the option of watching some videos at a higher quality or in Hi-Res Mode. Read YouTube High Resolution for more in-depth info.

8. In Hi-Res Mode, YouTube creates 2 new copies of your video:
448x336 pixels, Flash 7 video @ 900Kbps. Audio @ 44.1KHz Mono.

480x360 pixels, H.264 video @ 512Kbps. Audio @ 44.1KHz Stereo.
