Drove it, took Lemmy (my Lab) to the lady that bred him to see about breeding him again. Was a gentle, warm morning, a thoroughly enjoyable drive with just me and my Dog, and I marveled again at how well the old bus runs and drives.

Cleaned and hoovered the inside....think thats twice i've done it this year, must go lie down!

Fitted my newly refurbed tow bar, took mountain top off and sanded,repainted hinge plate. Ordered waterproof power point for tub. Off to grimsby tomoz to pick up chequer plate liner off surfer. Other than that,quiet day really.

Adjusted the rear brakes this morning and might take on the rubbish in the footwells this afternoon , next big job is the exhaust as only goodwill and garden wire is holding it on

Black strip across the top of the tailgate - to stop the canopy rubbing the paint off.

Rocker cover half moon done again i live in hope its fixed this time. Throttle body removed, cleaned and a bit of gasket seal around to stop that annoying oil seep!. UJ`s greased and all the grease niples top up, Bash plates are now back on, Booked in for Friday to have the side exit exhaust fitted.

Half the chassis waxoiled on Saturday,
Fitted a snorkel today,
I have waxoil still turning up in my hair and still scrubbing my knuckles and where the waxoiled hasn't touched me I have no skin left on my hands after fitting the snorkel, trying to fit the nut on the studs by reaching around the splash guard and fitting my rather large hand into the panel left a surprisingly large amount of blood.
Totally enjoyed the weekend, and with the missus bringing me tea and bacon butties I wish every weekend could be this good.

Started it, looked at it, swore at it, kicked it and driven it about a bit.

Dropped the spare wheel and under-sealed the cross member, WD40 on the spring hanger bolts and shock absorber bolts ready for the NEW lift shackles and ES900 shocks

Took it for spin over the mountian with my boy, got back realised I gotta get under it to do some work on it this week,
So decided to destroy the street and jet it down outside the house, so much mud haha the streets on a slope and I'm at the top of it oops

I burt the clutch out a bit er i mean alot on truck 2

Finally got under the new mitsi - fitted a reversing camera - discovered rear suspension bump stops are fuct (failed under continuous testing) sorted out the tow bar - there was a Dave cooper bike rack adapter fitted pain in the neck busted my shin more than once already on it so that's gone and I now have a tidy tow bar again - with working electriceryness.

fitted a 7" tft double din stereo with blue tooth and all that jazz a couple of weeks ago so integrated camera to that works a treat.

wouldn't have been this long without getting under truck had I not broke a bit of my hand two weeks ago - apparently machinery can be dangerous who knew...

Keep looking at it and thinking it needs bigger rubber - really didn't buy it to start modding it - but .......

cheers

Looked into the leaking transferbox today. After topping up the cluch fluid on sunday with no further leaks started work on the transferbox. Got dressed in all my wet weather gear slid under with the jet wash and cleaned what i think is about a years worth of FYM off. Once dried popped the filler plug to top up thinking i would need a good 2 ltrs to find that after 300ml it was full. Took her out for a run got back and found no leak . Happy days although need to keep an eye on the front output seal, stand by minler order inbound.

Fitted my snorkel last night , what a pain drilled holes wrong as when fitted it diddnt meet a pillar lol
Got it on then the stupid flexi hose don't fit in the holes was murdered getting that in there.
Done and it works so happy days. Wonder how strong that flexi pipe is worried about that breaking tbh as it's only thin .

yeh that flexi pipe is utter crap bin it and get a silicon hose if u plan on swimming mate

oh and where r the pics

Fitted a stainless steel rear bumper to my Challenger yesterday, to replace the black original equipment under body one . First thing I've done to the truck and was pleasantly surprised how solid all the fitments were. Might have to buy a heftier toolkit though

Next on the agenda is a reversing camera so I don't have to keep asking the Mrs to jump out and see me back at Tescos. Today it's a good clean and polish before settling down to watch Grand Prix qualifying

Reversing camera? Its only 18 feet long.

Don't let any Artic drivers hear you talk about cameras. They'll flush your bed down the loo and steal your lunch money.

LOL ok thanks for the tip
