Went out on my first days green laning on the 17th. Discovered my diffs are very low :( Before During After I avoided all the scratchy bits ;)

So had the 3 amigos pop up again recently. The code was for the shuttle valve switch so option b was in order. A new wabco switch was ordered which I modified ready for the swap. Old stock switch with the new option b modified switch. Wedged up to gain access. New earth location...

Passed the MOT today :D

Cheers buddy.

As mines a facelift the indicators are in the tail lights. I bought the plugs and made up some looms myself. Then just added an orange bulb in what was the reverse light. My bumper lights are untouched.

Today I changed the rotton rear mudflap brackets. Very messy job :cry: Found out I had limited access with the drill and some of the rivets are made from a very tough steel. Anyway managed to get them both off which revealed some rust. So I cleaned it all up with a wire wheel, used rust...

So I had slight vibration when braking so I've installed new front discs and pads. Febi Bilstein coated discs and Ferodo premium pads. Upon removal I discovered one of my sliders was seized solid! Couldn't move it until I got some heat on it. All stripped cleaned and greased.

It's currently in the dining room awaiting re covering. I'm not ready for that yet so popped in the plastics to make it a bit nicer till then.

Finished soundproofing/insulating the roof. Its already been sound deadened so I added a layer of this on top.

So I've spent the last day and a half detailing the landy. Wash, dry, clay bar, machine polish (removed at least 90% of the scratches/imperfections), sealed the paint with fusso, plastics treated, glass cleaned, interior cleaned, removed the rear GB badge and to finish it off new number plates...

The final door frame is complete along with sound deadening the door.

Ha ha thanks mate, the scratch is pretty bad, let's the backend down. Appreciate the comment :)

Right, got fed up with the poor rear wiper arm situation. As you can see my rear screen is damaged by the plastic wiper arm twisting and then the body of the wiper blade rubbing on the glass. So I've got a D1 rear wiper arm, bosch blade and a 4 way clip on washer jet. Now this is sorted I can...

Made some replacement supports for behind the grill out of solid 12mm bar then got them galvanized with a chassis cross member and my tow bar bits. All fitted with stainless bolts.

Decided to weld on the LPG filler and trailer electrics brackets to my new shackle mount to get the best positions for them. Dropped it off at the powder coaters and here's the result. Also got the shackle done.

Got hold of a good secondhand throttle body from a friend, smoke tested it yesterday and it passed. Cleaned it up today ready for the new plate and gaskets etc to arrive then I'll swap it over. Will strip the old one and see If I can machine it to accept some kind of seal, just for a spare.

Yes its perfect mate :)

The filter is long gone now but looking at the box and the oil coming out its in very good condition, must of been looked after.

Thanks buddy.

I prefer the pre facelift rear lights so they match the lower lights and fit the protectors properly so I made up a harness and fitted one rear light lol. Still on the search for the NS but much happier with the look.
