Oh right didn't realise you could do that. So it might already be blanked off. Explaining the cut cables in the head. Further investigation needed. Ta

Evening all. Slow progress on the engine. Although I have started on the engine mount and been practicing my welding. There is a few things I want to do to the truck whilst the engine is out. One bulkhead outrigger needs patching and the other replacing. Not looking forward to that. I was also thinking of fitting a DIY snorkel as I don't see the point in paying for a few bits of tube. I've looked through a few thread but can't find much about what goes on inside the wing. Can anyone shed any light?

disco r380 crossmember bolts straight in... however its not just a tunnel problem.. the gearstick will come through the seatbox.. actually in a much better place imho but the seatbox will need modifying

Thats a tidy looking cockpit, especially like the angle capping on the corners. But I've decided to stick with the lt77 for now because I need to get her running soon and it looks a bit simpler overall. Plan it to keep the r380 for a full rebuild once I've finished my degree.

Will aDefender speedo cable fit a 300tdi on a lt77 in the defender position?
