Might be a problem somewhere if you need steering damper on the road, mine dives without one and is fine even at motorway speeds, could be wear in swivel pins or summat:)
 
Fitted new in fuel/sender unit. Seems to run a bit better now without all the air being sucked in through the rusted pipes.

I presume you had to earth it to the chassis or something ? What thickness cable did you use. I have mine mounted on the roof rack and earthed to the chassis but I'm not too happy with it.
 
I collected 12 breeze blocks from the builders merchant. Think I might leave them in the Landy as it seems to run much quieter and smoother. No rattles or squeaks etc.
 
Drove it work and the exhaust & intake gasket split. Sounds like a steam train. Ordered one of those up pronto.


Also been ordering all its bits for a service. Overdue
 
jet washed at home,washed and wiped down with a microfiber towel,dont need a wax this time,checked tyre pressures,mot Tuesday and check underseal.
 
removed front suspension a rear shocks ready to replace with new stuff next weekend.

wire brushed, Kurusted and hammerited front lower shock bracket on axle and turret mounts.

Had an axle stand collapse :(. that made me crap myself when the front disk hit the concrete about 4 inches from me :eek: :faint2:

I'm thinking black top and bonnet and silver body. Where is the best place for paint online and what is the best paint to use. Like the pic but with a black bonnet.

Best paint to use in my opinion is 2k. But with all the health and safety bullsh*t that's your choice.
Doesn't bother me, My thinking is it's not like I do it every day.

Best place to get it. Well I buy all mine online/ebay. Autopaint brighton, Hugs paint and a few others depending what I want.
Or go to the local paint shop, I don't because I can't be arsed dealing with people in shops :eek:

Should look good by the way dude :)

How much paint did you use on yours for the top and body as I don't want to buy loads of the stuff.
