This weekend I decided to change the ball joints and axle seals. I used Delphi ball joints and NAK seals. All went well once I modified the tools 🤣 The mega heat wasn't nice though!! So happy they are finally done. The old ones were buggered. Also stripped and painted my disk shields...

Fitted a new genuine oil filler cap and new o rings for the cap and tube a couple of weeks ago and on Thursday I fitted new Textar coated rear discs, genuine land rover pads and new sliders for both rear callipers.

Thanks buddy. I love him loads! Can't help myself!

So yesterday I fitted a new bush, doughnut and bolts to my rear propshaft. Used a quality GKN and was happy to find that was what was fitted too. As you can see the old one was getting a bit worn.

Thanks mate :)

Just completed another small project. I got my bros neighbour to 3D print me out a switch panel to replace the ashtray then I ordered some land rover UK spec genuine carling switches, a couple of relays and a duel volt meter. The USB switch controls the 3 port charger I have under the steering...

So after 2 and a half painful days I finally have the lpg system back on! Just need to connect a few wires in the engine bay to finish the job. The job was a right pain in the arse! Like fitting square tanks in a round hole!! So seats, amps etc out and a good hoover then some planning on where...

LPG tanks and brackets coated in raptor ready for fitting on Wednesday. Sprayed in a fiends paint booth at 30 degrees.

Been busy preparing my LPG reinstallation! Originally it was a right bodge job from the past. Terrible fitting of the tanks. So I've got some new tanks, brackets and everything else. Popped into work today and welded some long bolts to the new brackets so I can fit the tank and both brackets in...

I also got all new fixings,blanks etc I fitted some stainless mesh over the new foam filter and installed some modified clips in gloss black. Hopefully this will prevent the foam from...

Upgraded my number plate lights to led.

Got the other side done on Saturday and jet washed/cleaned all of the underside ready for lanoguard on Wednesday.

Finally picked up the other side, a genuine land rover fog light.

Made a start on the rest of the rust prevention that I had to cut short when doing the chassis. Wednesdays task was the passenger side sill and floor. Stripped all the paint off and removed any surface rust. Degreased and then gave it 2 coats of corroless qdr. Drivers side to do...

So I noticed a a bit of pink coolant on my oil filter and my new panhard rod. Upon inspection I found the water pump to be the culprit. This was probably the only this I didn't change when doing the engine. The previous owner said it wasn't very old and looked great so I left it. The cost was...

So just completed the landy's first proper adventure! A week away in the Cotswolds with my family. Travelled 634 perfect fault free miles and even worked out my MPG after all the mods etc. Very happy with the results, on a run on motorways etc over 201.65 miles I managed 20.49mpg and that's with...
