No LPG for me. I'm scared of it with these engines after the last 3.9 I had in my Hilux was buggered following an LPG conversion!

What would happen if I kept the resistor and lambda sensors but no cats? I'm thinking of chopping them out for now, and replacing the big middle silencer with a single cat from somewhere else later on. I don't know if it would do enough er converting though. I'm guessing it would need more time to warm up to start working, being further from the engine. So long as it passes a MOT I would be happy.

Oh and the bull bar we be seeing a grinder soon!

Sell it mate. Dont grind it

Markdisco94 · Feb 28, 2014

That's probably a better idea!

Any idea what it is worth?

Not sure whether to keep the spots or not. They are LR branded. I would prefer a light bar but don't know how they fit, and if one would go on with the current roof bars.

Oh, first stupid question. How does the rear bumper come off on a 200tdi?

noiseboymart · Feb 28, 2014

2 bolts per side behind it. usually a grade A pain in the arse

Anywhere from £40 upwards. I fitted a lightbar to mine the other day. Drill through the gutters. £110 for the bar, 6 lamps and all the wiring.

The roofbars will not interfere with a bar

sergeantcookie · Feb 28, 2014

Heres mine

How its fitted

StuRox · Feb 28, 2014

Little tip on the light bar - drill holes into the bar at the lights, and feed the wires through the bar - makes it a lot more tidier

sergeantcookie · Feb 28, 2014

Yea yours is cool. I wouldnt have the patience to feed it all through. Plus you never came up

Markdisco94 · Feb 28, 2014

Brilliant, thank you all.

Paulmitchell1984 · Feb 28, 2014

make a light bar..easy

Markdisco94 · Mar 2, 2014

I might try that. I can get pipe. No bender though so I could slit it and bend it that way to suit the roof profile. What diameter pipe are they made from?

First things first though, I ruined my front shocks yesterday when changing the springs. The bottom was rotten and snapped off trying to undo the nuts. Also turns out the old springs were heavy duty springs. Much thicker than the standard replacements I have put on.

Farm bar taken off:

31s fitted but immobile now until I get some dampers.

Paulmitchell1984 · Mar 2, 2014

Wont be thick stuff probably half Inch to Inch...gas pipe or conduit size ..bag of sand and a friend to bend it lol

Looks better with no bar. I bought a chrome one for mine as the original one was goosed. But after a week it came off as they look better without one on

Long live the 200

Markdisco94 · Mar 16, 2014

Found a spot more rot:

New boot floor also there ready for some good weather and a free weekend.

sergeantcookie · Mar 16, 2014

Every time I look under mine I find more rot 😂

mbwoy84 · Mar 16, 2014

Bargain buy and good work!

My 1997 Discovery V8 doesn't have so much of a hint of rust anywhere thankfully! It did when I bought it, but not much. The rear bumper and both sills were the only parts that actually needed replacing though.

New job to do! Sunroofs!

I set off yesterday after it had been parked for a week and got soaked. Properly soaked too, not just a few drips or a dribble, drenched!
