So at last I thought I would start a build thread for my 2 landies to keep a record of all my modifications etc
So here they are as of today  Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge I have had the 90 since 2014 and when I bought it it looked like this Click image to enlarge Not 100% sure on the Sv build but it has air con and factory fit sunroof, ABS And TC and has had many changes already and will go through them in this thread to bring you up to present configuration. Standard TD5 engine when bought. Click image to enlarge Now this is my 110 XS which I got on Saturday from forum member Fatboyslim (top bloke) this came with a lot of extras done already it has had egr delete, updated Intcooler JE engineering stage 2 remap, stainless exhaust de cated, disco transfer box, 30mm spacers and all the usual XS goodies. I am sure I have forgotten bits and if Stu reads this he will most likely enlighten me. So already started to makes some changes as I have a plan for the XS Already added KBX wing vents in santorini black and removed some stickers, sorry about the Cymru sticker Stu

So what have I done to the 90 to bring it up to current spec. Firstly I cleaned all the god damm dog and horse hair out of it from the previous owner, then I changed the rusty old side steps for some nice stainless steel ones
Click image to enlarge I also replaced the windscreen blocks with some nice Stainless ones from Ox and added some wing mirror covers from RDX. Click image to enlarge I then started in the engine bay by putting in a K&N air filter, Alisport uprated inter cooler and silicone pipes in orange and a Alisport egr delete. This added with a Griffen straight through stainless exhaust has made it a nicer drive a bit more responsive than it was. I then removed the A bar and spots and changed to a XS Brunel grill set which improved the front end. It stayed like that for a while then last summer I decided to change the look again and start do a black and stainless theme with it so next came Java black KBX wing vents genuine santorini grill set, RDX LED lights and new winch bumper ready for winch fitting Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge I also added gloss black boosts with new 265/75/16 BF Goodrich AT tyres and repowdercoated the light guards and snorkel gloss black.

Thanks Clayton
still lots to do to the 90 I have a garage full of bits just not the time to fit I came home to a nice delivery today of a pair of black whitbread rear bumper steps for the 110 so now need to repaint the rear cross member as it has a few rust bubbles so it does not look bad against the new steps. |

I know what you mean about the bits to fit but not having time to fit them,
 should of had a 4 working days and a 3day weekend, that would help a bit Those new steps will look really good on the back, i looked at them, nice bit of kit, as for the painting, you will have to make the most of the dry days when we get them Clayton.

Well today's job was to sort out the rattle from under the bonnet caused by the bonnet stay clip being broken
Before Click image to enlarge After Click image to enlarge Quick 5 minute job rattle gone and no more worry it might have caused some some damage in the engine bay as it was moving about. |

Not had time to do much other than use the landy's so the pile of upgrades and part is getting bigger in the garage rather than smaller which is winding up swmbo
 so today I decided to go and buy a sankey mk3 wide track to add to the collection and convert to a camping trailer for next summer
You can guess the wife's mood when I got home
