Went up the hill for more wood.

Got this trailer a couple of weeks ago, total impulse buy, thought at the time that i didn't really need it and what the hell was i doing buying it. Have used it just about every day since!

Translation for a non native English speaker please? Wink
Eric You never actually own a Defender. You merely look after it for the next generation.

Eric - it's the name of the alloy wheel cleaning liquid I use, Billberry. Spray on, wait 5 mins, wash off and they look like new

United Kingdom 1991 Defender 110 200 Tdi USW Arles Blue
Not today but yesterday...

Journey back to my parents to use the workshop for a engine oil change.

All fluids checked and topped up with only the rear diff needing a small top up. Props were greased again and all bulbs checked.

My passenger side headlight had stopped working so I assumed it was the bulb, took it apart (which with the light guards is a bit more involved...) and inexplicably started working again, couldn't find the fault, so put it back together.

Also adjusted the rear drum brakes because they were feeling a bit slack. They have 2 adjusters on them, one ether side and I couldn't figure out which did which so I adjusted them both and have now got a good brake effort again with no rubbing or hot brakes so can only assume its done correctly? Any pointers would be good Thumbs Up

Also fitted a dash cam hard wire kit which has freed up my cigar lighter socket again. Simple kit from Halfords just the usual headache of taking the dash apart and the radio out.

Then gave the underside a good pressure wash to get rid of all the salt, mud and road muck accumulated over the winter and then drove back home for dinner.

Nice to have a day doing routine stuff sometimes Very Happy Running Restoration Thread http://www.defender2.net/forum/post323197.html#323197
