Thats an option but not much room to play with to seal the diff at the lowest point.

I know Sir Doris has strengthened the bolts holding the pan on with a length of metal to spread the pressure to seal it so that idea of yours could be an option in that case.

Re: WHAT YOU DID TO YOUR TRUCK TODAY! by Trugga on Mon Sep 21, 2009 10:21 pm
Yesterday (or was it Saturday) I ripped out the drivers foot well sodden carpet.

Cleared away a lot of mud, replaced the nuts and bolts on the roll cage foot and fitted some alloy chequer plate to the drivers foot well. I'm not overly happy with the result as the plate needs to be a little longer, so will p/x the remaining 500mm square plate for a couple of longer plates and give it another go.

Maybe photo's next time.

Oh, also fixed a small radiator leak with some Radweld - don't leak no more :wink:

well, i was drilling a hole in the roof lining for my new light panel, and using some bits of plastic on the other side of the roof lining, so i drilled through the panel and then drilled through the plastic on the other side of the lining, only to feel the drill go in to my finger and touch bone, oh i thought, i better put the drill in to reverse,

Re: WHAT YOU DID TO YOUR TRUCK TODAY! by MyMu on Thu Sep 24, 2009 12:34 am
Had a fight with an exhaust.......and won :D :D The only one I could find which was near was one for a mk1 Trooper. I had to cut the join bracket off and slide over to fix to the old exhaust and cut off and relocate the rear rubber dounut clamp. I will have to cut a few inches off the tail pipe I think as well. I then fitted a Optima red top battery that I found on fleebay and finished the day off by repairing the small leak in the stearing box. Now all my little jobs are done I can go dumper truck racing tomorrow :dance:
