Thanks Ryder.
I've just dug out the last MOT and it actually expired Oct 30th 2008
and its been SORN'd since.Blimey, time flies eh.
Today I think I'll take off the new rear brake hubs and paint them. I painted the last ones but they turned out to be square rather than round and had to be taken off. But good on Paddocks for swapping them and upgrading my shoes to Mintex FOC

Good job too.. I try get round to checking fluids every couple of months... although since my broken foot, I have noticed a rather large, and growing puddle of ep90 below my gearbox.... :doh: gotta change clutch soon,so will check that then..

spent today under the 90 checking props and uj's but it appears the knock every time i change gear is the transfer case and input shaft so time to fit 300tdi box and my 19j has developed alot of oil all over the block and dropped power this week so i think it's time to retire it and fit the 200 tdi lump which i didn't want to do without changing cambelt and rear seal but can't afford either at the moment so going to have to do without tomorrow then do the seal in a few months when i can afford a recon lt77.bugger.

Today I fitted a s/h R380 and transfer box to my 2 door classic.
Welded some extra metal on to the clutch fork as well.
Also fitted a s/h LT77 oil cooler system from a 3.9 classic to my R380 to keep the box cooler when towing.
Had to remove the rad to fit the oil cooler pipes so fitted a timing belt as the front was already out.
Next job is to fit( when I get one)a better air con rad and a set of two tone horns.

dash is reassembled
clock works - all dash dials work- they werent when i took it to bits
replaced some fuses and my off side light and horn and skooshers work now - annoyingly the OTHER light has stopped working - and its not a fuse
1 or 2 patches on the rear xmember - rear most end of the chassis rails to do for its mot and a patch on the floor of the drivers foot well. Then ill stick it in for its mot then likely have to replace the front shocks and the swivel pins to get it through.....

cleaned up my recently aquired deep dish alloy... always annoyed me that the spare didnt match the rest...
called at local part worn tyre place for a spare... looked through a pile of 245/70 16's and saw what looked like a bfg a/t pattern... asked him how much...£30..
pulled it out and it was a bfg a/t.. still had moulding marks, must of done less than 100 miles... tried to keep the smile off my face as they fitted it...
now hanging on my rear door and looking mint... i'm well happy..

filled it to the roof with wood from my old fence ready to take to the steam yard.
It now drives like a boat.
Well... they all drive like a little bit like a boat (especially with the anti-roll bars removed), but even more so when they're full of wood!
