    The Little Discovery That Could (financially ruin me)

    Right, lets pick up where we left off Decided to incorporate some 21mm holes into the inner plates for shackles or what have you, the mag broach was right there and I had some spare material that would otherwise have been wasted. I made up a card template of the angle I wanted for the ends...

    The Little Discovery That Could (financially ruin me)

    Pulled the rocker cover off this morning to swap the injector loom and see if I could sort the oil leak down the back of the head. Looks pretty good for an engine with 205k with a history of neglect. Not a speck of sludge and the cams/rollers look good. The ECU plug was, of course, full of...

    Td5 Defender 90 "Lots of body filler, and no money to fix"

    Hey, nice bit of kit you've got there, colour me very jealous :cool: I'm not an expert on subwoofers but i think you might need to rethink your method of strapping them down :D also, I don't think you can use those words in that order in the same sentence, sorry. It's just not possible :oops:

    Disco 2 D2 Pre-facelift - Scary dim dipped beams - possibly a relay?

    Howdy, Among the many and varied problems with my stupid, stupid money pit, the dipped beams on my pre-facelift D2 are scarily dim and orangey. The bulbs are new, decent quality Philips H4 ones, and the high beams are pretty darn good and very very white in comparison. I saw a rather...

    Tell me about it :rolleyes: Tonight I had a go at evicting the 3 amigos by un-farmering the ABS modulator. You could see what they were shooting for but unfortunately a lack of basic electrical competence seems to have held them back. (Take a drink every time a photo makes you groan) For the...

    Steve's unexpected Series 3 rebuild.

    Nice work, better than new :D I’m surprised nobody’s come up with a collapsible steering shaft for series’s yet, a direct line from your face to the chassis

    If anyone wanted further proof that this thing hates me, look no further. I drove to work this morning with the intention of swapping the track rod ends, having a poke at the fault with the ABS modulator, and maybe putting in the new injector harness that's been kicking around in the boot for...

    For all the blood sweat and tears I've put into it so far the thankless bastard thing is trying to kill me :mad: The culprit (please ignore the swanky clutch bleeding tool): Came off the fast A road from work and pulled into the close where I live after work this evening, and as I slowed...

    Had a day to sort the bloody brakes out today. Fitted a new master cylinder, new bleed screws on all the calipers, and new bleed nipples all around. I also cleaned and greased the sliders on all the calipers, the fronts in particular were pretty locked up but nothing some red rubber grease...
