Fitted two of my new(ish) tyres to my spare set of wheels.

The beads were a bugger to break, I ended up using my high lift jack under the tow bar, had to go all the way around before they freed off.

Getting the tyres on was easier but still not simple, I'm thinking of paying to get the other two done :rolleyes:
 
Got most of the hub disassembled, taking the stub axle off tomorrow to get that pesky seal. Brake drum was coated in oil :(

So many leaks these days. I am pretty sure every part of the vehicle that contains oil leaks. N joke! I seem to be always changing seals. Time to replace some metal bits I think...
 
went to boston again today with the truck A1 A16 A17 saw a couple of disco's but didn't get any return waves or flashes :( will try again tomorrow lol
 
Fitted the other two tyre's today and offered them up to see how much clearance I haven't got :eek:



It's starting to look the part though :D

left mine at work to bring the terrano and trailer back to drop the trailer in for servicing then pick a college up on the way into work in the morning :D saves my fuel :D
 
Today I have mostly been cursing the evil genius that put the poxy little spring in the door locks on the Disco 1. Having to take most of the drivers door out to then try and remove the lock is not the most fun thing to do! But at least I now have a door the unlocks in the central locking again - and the window goes up and down properly as well now (more of an accidental achievement though as I didn't actually set out to sort the window it was just a happy addition!
