    What have you done to your Landie today.

    Spent 3h pulling 3 cables in through the roll cage. All the draw wires had melted them selfs together in one big mess from the welding.

    Roll cage advice.

    I'm building a roll cage at the mo and was thinking of making this front sticky up bit but I don't no what it's for. Is it to help protect the bonnet if you are upside down.

    need help after engine swap

    Check for 12v at the fuel cut off solenoid at the back of the high-pressure fuel pump. If u have voltage crack off the nipples on the injectors to get any air out.

    Got the cage back on the disco and fully welded it on. Made and fitted 2 rear supports from the cage to 6mm plates welded on the chassis. Going to weld in the internal cross tomoz and start painting the new welds.

    Did the last coat of painting on the cage last night. Going to get the lads round later to give us a lift so it can be welter on and start the electrics. Hopefully I'll have time to weld the internal in and get the support in for the chassis to tree sliders.

    FINISHED the main part of the roll cage. Well I say finished, the main part is all tacked together. Still need to do the internal brace behind the front seats, front wings, incorporate some defender headlights in the front of the cage to replace the 2 candles that I&#8217;ve got at the mo. fully...

    Getting into welding

    The Sealey one looks good. Will weld the chassis with ease but if you'r doing a lot of welding I would get a big bottle of Gass and a reg to fit. The little bottles are a rip off. U will need a auto mask and a pair of welding gloves
