    Bish bosh, bit of welding to the bulkhead. I've been looking at the little rusty patch for a couple of years, this week it turned into a little hole. Excuse the ugly welding, but it's solid. The black is primer, a bit more sanding and a coat...

    New starter fitted. As expected, it didn’t go without issue as it is a landy! One of the turbo studs sheared, needing drilling and tapping. The mechanic said a few choice words, which I won’t repeat! And a couple of extra earths were added. But...

    Drop arm ball joint replaced, bit of a ball ache (get it 🫣), but got there in the end! The atb diff helped mask the problem a little, but it got to the point where it was getting silly! Back to cornering on rails!
