Fitted my mobile Sys glove box kit and a quick detail but ran out of light before I got round to the roof

It amazes me let alone others that even with me filling in between the wheel arches with storage space so that the load area in the back of my 110 is all at wheelbox height that I can still fit in bulky items such as a washing machine with no hassle at all. It is astounding on how much junk will fit in the back

Replaced my rear trailing arms with a set of cranked ones from Extreme. With my 2" OME lift, the angle on the bushings is now neutral. Exactly what I was hoping for.
Replaced all business on the truck with Polybush dynamic, and stainless hardware from YRM, as well, replaced the A arm ball joint . I'm could't be happier with the result, firm but not harsh ride, and the "clunk" is gone, (used to drive me CRAZY!!) no more vague steering, and a much more positive road feel. Definitely money well spent. Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge |

Broke out the AutoGlym glass polish and cleaned inside and out, the front windscreen, front side windows, rear quarter windows, rear window and wing mirrors, Must say its a lot better now, and also much better than using Windolene.
Just the rear doors, rear sliding windows and alpine windows to do. 1999 Defender TD5 110 Regards John M0VAZ Econet Station 48 no clock |

Discovered why the trailer board lights look dim...That's because with the engine running I am only getting 11v at the lights. Tested with a spare trailer board and the same. So, time to start looking at the socket and the wiring to the socket. 1999 Defender TD5 110

I recently swapped mine out and replaced it with a 13 pin euro one located in the cut out of the rear cross member, was shocked to see the state of the connections inside the old 7 pin socket. 3 Landrovers

I think I might be doing the same as well. For now it just needs a bit of TLC and tracing of the wires the main loom. 1999 Defender TD5 110 Regards John M0VAZ Econet Station 48 no clock |

Accidentally discharged the fire extinguisher and it has gone everywhere in the landy
So to cheer myself up I fitted my RDX LED lights  |

Finished AutoGlyming the remaining windows with glass polish.
Fitted an additional dual USB and 12v socket to the MudStuff gearbox tray. This brings the total USB sockets to 4, and 12v sockets to 4 as well. Two in the front and one each behind the passenger and drivers chair. Fixed the non working rear 12v socket - blown fuse. Checked oil and topped up screen wash. 1999 Defender TD5 110 Regards John M0VAZ Econet Station 48 no clock |
