Just ordered some Track rod ends. Thought I would go for more up market ones as the last ones that came in a blue box only lasted four years. Ordered a new down exhaust pipe, rear brake shoes, rear wheel cylinders, Brake adjusters and a steering damper.
New foot wells get fitted next week. I will then give it a grease up and I should be ready for the winter. Normally when I feel good about my Defender and spend some money on it, something else goes.
 
My landy is off the road at the moment. The clutch slave cylinder went. Had it towed back and the recovery worker noted that the handbrake didnt work too well. How do I adjust the cable. It has had new shoes within the past year
 
Set about finding the source of the intermittent squealing noise & stench of burning rubber on the 300tdi. Since my missus was mad keen to get her motor back she came to help. It turns out that the bottom ac pulley bearing was utterly fubar, a tad surprising as it was only replaced a couple of months ago. Could have been much worse, so bit of a result really.

I popped over to see LZ's resident porn connoisseur. We fitted a new stub axle and wheel bearings to his slitty powered 90.

Travelling over to him I freed off my turbo wastegate as it was sticking yet again.
 
Fitted new rear springs shocks and trailing arm bushes to the 110, Was going to do the fronts but weather stopped play :mad: So that's tomorrows job.
 
made a hash of my headliner retrim!........not happy, the material I bought just aint flexable enough for all the curves on the roof!
