[4x4 bobby]

Managed to put the farm jack under the back door and lift it, at least i can open the feckin thing now without climbing into the boot with a screw driver!!!

[yaki]

Primered the front wings, hopefully giving them a quick rub down tomorrow might and then squirt some colour on them

Refitted the roof console now that the wiring is finished

[Hawkmoon]

.. new brakes !

and ... the original airbox ! Hurra!

[yaki]

Quick wet flat of the front wings and top coat is going on, not looking too fab at the mo as I'm using spray cans but its better than a 2 tone shorty and no doubt will soon get them nice n scratched

[yaki]

Bought more spray paint as yesterdays job is looking a bit patchy

Not the smartest of patches, but hey it works....

Truck

Also, moved the winch bumper project on a bit. Now done the little bits of bumper leading to the wheel arch trim and welded in some plate to try and protect the body section below the headlight mounting that seemed a bit 'exposed'

Side bumper


Protective plate


Nearly finished, just a top bracing bar/spotlight mounting bar to make and fit and drill out the shackle mounts to 20mm

It often works better to apply a drop coat to silver base coat....base up with normal overlap and volume, then apply a final drop coat from 2-3 times the distance from the panel, more of a dusting than a heavy full coat.

[4x4 bobby]

Fitted another turbo and put on nut's & bolts that someone else bloody left off!!!!

Used it to drag the caravan down to Stoke Gabriel, Devon for weeks holiday. Tis well hot down here, off to find some more beaches in a bit. And no, Im not leaving it on the beach

[Hawkmoon]

... And no, Im not leaving it on the beach

People leaving Fronteras on this or that beach does seem to happen a lot ... ..starting to look like a habit!
I wonder what they says for Fronty owners in general?

[hipo1024]

Day off today so I've finally finished doing the wheels bearings lol only taken a week pmsl. Next up is crack on and finish off the bumper

[snapper]

Mmm...

Was just about to go get the tools n bits from the shed and do a cam belt change on Truck followed by the front wheel bearings... I say was as the sky has just emptied a bucket of water over the town and it's still coming down!

[snapper]

Took me phone (N8) to bits instead and replaced the main speaker, lot's n lots of very small bits lol... Amazingly I even got it back together again and it works


Now for the truck as it's stopped raining
