Notalot, but used it's Hi-lift to jack out a few fence posts .. dead easy, block of wood drilled onto each, lifted out no sweat with 1' of post-crete on the bottoms .. ;)

School 'overflow' car park is being 're-designed' ... in other words the Head doesn't like cars parking outside her window .. ;)

hows that work on concrete posts?
 
Dunno, don't care, I only needed to shift wooden posts .. ;)

If they're the sort with holes through, use a suitable size bolt maybe, or rig a strop up so it bites on itself at the base as the jack rises and pulls the post out .. which is what I did first but found it took a while ...
 
Replaced the disks and pads. So i now have working brakes again. And I still have the skin left on most of my fingers :)
 
Finally (after two years) put some insulation under the bonnet, checked the gearbox and transfer box oils, and went for a blast for a few hours.

Would like to wash it but there is a hose pipe ban around here!

haha it was dry today but took me ages to fit it! Sounds a lot quieter now but still aggressive when I floor it

Mines only the stubby cherrybomb though in 2 1/4" bore, what size did you buy ?
 
Sprayed the front wheels black. Not brilliant but a damn sight better than the chipped silver they were.

had to strip the handbrake down as some of the plains had decided to hide itself in there and stop me reversing the landy without locking up.
all cleaned out now and working spot on again but whilst removing the prop i did notice how much of the plains i missed when i cleaned her the other week, so another cleaning session with a stiff brush tomorrow i think :rolleyes:
 
Ahhh you've got a biggun :p I'll take a pic of mine tomorrow but mine finishes before the rear axle then just shoots down to the side. The 8" one seemed like a good idea at the time haha, might regret it eventually but it sounds ok for now
 
I emptied a cup of water out of the radio ; I have to do this every couple of months and did a round trip of 160 miles in my 1978 series lll , using ear plugs for the first time and what a difference that made - brilliant !
