Well finally got the nerve up to replace the "little sucker" (vacuum pipe leading from the back of the vacuum pump)

Not what you want to see.jpg

Some how I think it was about time it was replaced

No wonder I was down on vacuum pressure

Well yesterday I got my new mud tyres fitted, then today I removed the spare wheel carrier, replaced my radiator (burst while I was in some woods with no other trucks out) and stuck a sticker on the back

Installed a navigators map light to the windscreen pillar - then got confused in wiring it up - will have another go tomorrow.

Also, finally removed the manual brake bias thingy, unseized it, cleaned and painted it ready for re-installation tomorrow (if the hameright dries overnight).

removed 8mm of the shims from the o/s/f wheel leaving the individual ones alone, and still had 3mm in there, front wheels look almost straight, but tracking is out now, will get that done next week,

here is what she looked like when i got here,


then with the lift, and the 8js on


and now with the 31s balloon tyres, 10js 15" rims

[Drift]

Glad the shims went well, fooking arm still hurts

That last pic is the nutz mutz nice one fella

Andy that LR pleave by Sefton Meadows charge £35 now for an aliment, they are loving the Frontera as its less ball ache than a LR

[andysd1]

Hang on, now what are you buying?? You've owned damn near every type of Fronty going...
Also selling the trailer??

[andysd1]

nooo, keeping the v6, and trying to wangle her to keep the trailer,

the new toy is cool,

got to get rid of the other two small trailers

Adjusted the rear calipers so the handbrake will now hold the car when you lean on the back ... stupid design that requires you to tweak it every 2 seconds as it self un-adjusts with the wind, meaning the handbrake is nothing more than something to lean your knee against when your driving.

Swapped the lower shock bushes for nice new poly ones ... ride is noticebly firmer ... took me ages to get the bleeding rubber bits out of them as they were glued in.

Repaired the front passenger door lock as it wasn't opening on the central locking. Was pleasantly surprised to find the motor part wasn't a sealed unit and opened it to find dirty contacts and gummed up, so gave everything a good clean and greased it a little. Works a treat now.

Aye yae urnae wrong there pal, a wis knacked carrying the guard up that hill.
