Hi klandyg
You might have better luck in getting help if you tell everyone what vehicle you have and whereabouts in the country you are located. Posting in the specific vehicle section could help too.

Hope you get it sorted.
 
spent the morning stripping the interior out of the back of the disco to see how bad the tin worm is..
lordy has he been hungry. :eek:
looks like a new boot floor and a loads of other bits of welding next week then.. dont you just love old disco's:violent:
 
cleaned the rear floor of the 90 out was full of mud, then got 90% of the roof bolts out for tomoz so my roll cage/hoop can go in just hope the rain stays of!!:D
 
Done a total refirb of the brake master cylinder and bled the system between rain storms.
Ready to road test tomorrow.:D
 
fitted this little lot today :)

staying at standard height with the springs, HD for the winch/ winch bumper, with long travel shocks only 2+ though, so put the cones in just incase they pop out, forgot to buy front spring retainers though!!
