Hi all

So 346 days after getting my galvanised chassis the Landy is out!

The clutch is bit high so i think i need to adjust the master cylinder and the brakes are a bit spongy so will need to re bleed them

Still got the doors to do but now the Landy is out of the garage i have the room to now do all new galvanised doors. The old ones will stay on and i will swap one at a time.

First one is the rear door and my next job is to fit the DC-DC MPPT charger and Leisure battery for the fridge.

Three observations...1. Have you been a little enthusiastic with the black rattle can over the washer bottle? 2. You've been shopping at Gwyn Lewis...and 3. Nothing like a clean engine bay

BTW, what are those relays up by the main fuse on the bulkhead ?

Spotlights and future expansion.

Here’s a site I use for my horse box conversion.
https://horseboxwindowcentre.com/Locker-Doors-c39080006

Needed a larger door for the side of the lorry & made 1 up.
Now some of there side lockers doors may fit into the side of the landrover. Or they would make to suit.

This fridge was a bit of a price… but when you can have a very cold beer & ice lolly’s at the end of a day it was worth it.
Fridge & freezer combination. This is electric only

Hello mate.

Im off to Expedition Equipment next week to look at the NL fridges. I really like the look of the 50L Legacy. Is that the same size as yours?
