£580 at Toyota...has to have it done there otherwise the warranty is void...even though this isn't covered by the warranty...fkd if you do, fkd if you dont.
 
Removed the shovel from the offside wing and the pick axe head from the nearside wing so as I will have some place to rest tools if I have to take the head off!

Freed off the nearside caliper with a BIG hammer and a chisel so I can move the beast with the tractor without skidding the grass up on the field when I tow it to a better place for fixing.:)

Started to clear the garage out and put Landy spares and tools where I can find them !
 
Finally sorted front prop out.
Bought it yesterday, spent about 5 hours fixing and fitting it, as it needed a new UJ - old broken one didnt want to come out, and new one didnt want to go in! - and then the bolts on the transfer box flange were so battered from it failing, I needed to grind off the ends of the bolts to get new nuts on.

But its sorted..... for now........

Removed the front section of headlining from my 110 CSW (removed the rest a couple of weeks ago) and stuck thermal / acoustic matting over most of the exposed metal panels in preparation for Lasalle Headlining kit when it arrives in a few weeks.

Unfortunately I cannot refit the rear view mirror which is a bit of a bugger.

Made it look like a 1970s era Dr Who space ship by trimming out the underside of the roof in silver coated acoustic foam.
And temporarily fitted new Buffalo Board on the roofrack - to be finished with countersunk machine screws after I've done the sunroof and healing in a few weeks.
