WHAT YOU DID TO YOUR TRUCK TODAY!

[RatCav]

Not on mine .. the girlfriends Ford Explorer. Been having issues with the ABS kicking in at the last few feet when stopping, even though the wheels aren't slipping. Must be sensors or exciter ring. Went on Eblag and got a pair of front sensors for £8 delivered direct from Hong Kong. Fitted them both last night and all works a treat. Love simple cheap fixes.

@andy 002 isn't really a advisory, more of a compliment lol

[snapper]

Good news there Andy as for the sticky out wheels, some places note them others ignore them and the good places get the tape measure out and find they are okay!

[martinkettering]

Did a 3" rear lift and a 2" front lift today

[4x4 bobby]

Nice looking truck you have there!!!!

[martinkettering]

Thanks mate,still got more to do to it yet tho till its how i want it .

[igotababyfrontera]

Took it for its annual check up, I even took.it to Vauxhall while they had a ministry visit so wasn't expecting much, however...PASSED,and by the ministry aswell.

Needless to say I'm well chuffed and the advisories are clean up and spray rear brake pipes and double check front wheel bearings as they 'couldn't spin the wheel fast enough to thoroughly check' also front drop link rubbers are starting to deteriorate.

I'm gonna treat it to a new clutch drop links brake pipes and track rod ends the weekend just as a well done.

[4x4 bobby]

Well done mate. Another Fronty stay's on the road!!!!!!

[martinkettering]

After doing the lift on mine yesterday,i decided to do starter motor,thats is a right p.i.t.a to do,finally when i got it together,it turned over great,but wouldnt fire,double checked everything while ignition was on ,moved some wires and things started to work,turned key and fired up,took it for test drive ran like pooh on lpg,so stripped loom back,found out it was 2 earths not tight at rear of block,some idiot hadnt tightened them at some point,now runs great,i will not be doing that again in a hurry....

[jellybaby]

Nothing to a frontera but put the discovery in for an mot suppose I better see how much is wrong with it.

[jellybaby]

Nearly passed. Well would of if it wasn't for the 3 page failure list bring back the fronty. No surprise it's welding and oil leaks

[4x4 bobby]

Changed the inlet manifold, renewed the fuel pipes in the engine bay, connected the fuel pump that i purchased under the truck. Everything was fine until i snapped a fuel injection pipe. Vx want 34 quid + vat just for No3&4. Bloody rip off. Stretch is going to bail me out' thanks me old mate!!!!! will put the pictures up when i get time.

[4x4 bobby]

Dave Its a skip oh sorry ment landrover what did you expect?
You would have been better off putting the money into the frontera! It would have been sorted by now.......

[jellybaby]

Tell me about it rob could have rebuilt the fronty 3 times over but gotta make the best of it for at least 12 months. If it doesn't dissolve by then.

[hipo1024]

Made a start on swapping the bad bits on the 2.5 for good bits off the 2.8 (namely the wing mirrors and 120% brighter bulbs) and added a aerial adapter to the head unit so I had radio. Tomorrow I'll be doing the last drive on the road for the 2.8 as it's getting sorn'd and eventually trailered

Made a start on swapping the bad bits on the 2.5 for good bits off the 2.8...
