Bought some boxes for the new planned storage setup in the rear load area from Screwfix, and set about lining the back with soundproofing but ran out a short way into the job. Guess I'd better buy some more, the job will have to wait for the end of the month now then it seems Sad

Oh and did a service yesterday, engine oil and all the filters. Total cost 40 Laughing

Next one due at 183,357 miles Smile

I've spent today replacing my hub bearings! All the bearings fell out and one welded itself to the stub so had to file n sand it down! All sorted now though. Broke a brake pipe too while doing hub so had to make a new pipe n bleed brakes. Next on the list is to empty the mud out of the heater and fix the broken bonnet pull and replace both rear shocks. Getting there with fixing it for the Peak District laning hopefully with greeni


Room for one more to come along? Whistle lol

I fitted a waeco heated seat kit. Just need to put the elements in the backrest tomorrow and it will be finished.

I will try to put a write up in the td5 section at some point

Good man Thumbs Up this is on my list of things to do this year so a write up will help me no end. Did you use the switches that came with the kit or oe Landrover switches?
Cheers

Picked my 110 up from the local main dealers (Lancasters) with a nice new alternator fitted and and a wash and interior valet carried out Thumbs Up Top marks for service again Thumbs Up

Dragged the OH away from an Ewok in the showroom after looking at a new 110 Utility - I do like the fact they don't fit carpet to the new models but use that decent rubber matting stuff, much more practical. John

An impending house move means my Sankey trailer was put to good use again today taking rubbish to the tip:


Click image to enlarge

The new house comes with a big double garage, which will give me the space to refurbish and probably re-body this trailer, as it is rather battered. It does the job though Thumbs Up Darren

Awning/Kitchen tested on the drive, deployed and stowed in less than 3 minutes, but it's not cold yet.

Opened up a couple of LED lights from Jason, these are extra LED bars for the trip. He's doing another group if anyone is interested.

Still waiting for a couple of electronic goodies to arrive from the USA .. more about that later.

and, alternator from the 90, that died on the plains last weekend is now fixed - 13 Thumbs Up
