proper ones are easier to do!

cheers for the photos, I modified some T hinges for the bonnet, and made a grabrail and steering column cover.

Evening CharlesY!

what engine? If it's a TD5 = Series 2 in the uk the fancy lights were a D2 'Facelift' model

series 2 disco has a longer boot and rear overhang than disco 1... Does this relate to the chassis too??? I dont know, but if it does, the relation between the chassis mounting points and the crossmember mount may well be different???

a good dose of leadfoot?

well i thought my superwinch was made in the USA, I'm gonna check the plate. If it's rebranded chinese, then i'm with you Noisy.
