Decided to tidy up the wiring beneath the passenger seat box. It was working perfectly but poorly organised:

Over the course of the past year, BamBam has picked up DRLs, an Alpine sub, an upgraded headlight loom and front and rear LEDs, leading to a few too many terminals on the battery posts:

A few hours and a Bluesea fuse holder later and we're in good shape:

And there was plenty to throw away:

Drove to Austria. Stopped over in Saarland in the roof tent, now in a lodge just south of Innsbruck.

Faultless trip, lots of other defenders on the road but I need cruise control!

Lowered and fitted a new universal drop plate to my rear X member as i have recently fitted a + 2" lift kit aswell as repainted the rear X member and tow bar ready for fitting an extra tow ball, the idea is when i go off roading i can remove the new drop plate complete with new towball but still have the old tow ball ( raised ) and used as a recovery point for if 90 gets stuck or recover someone else Mr. Green Graham

Rear shocks taken off again, and top mount to chassis shocker mounts too, all to be replaced.
Not difficult but time consuming.
New stuff going on to,orrow hopefully.

Friday, took it to AJS tyres where they took it for MOT and replaced all four shocks and rings. Massive difference in ride.

Saturday, took it to the shoot and had a trip round looking at the cover crops.

Sunday, paid the Road Fund Licence!

I had a similar problem which was cured the same way!

I had the usual commute from home to work to home again but slowly getting quieter the more sound proofing I add. Looking forward to moving onto the bulkhead but still researching and weighing up options on what to use or how to do it.

Tomorrows job is making up some new bonnet bushes to try and prevent my bonnet rattling again Rolling Eyes Running Restoration Thread http://www.defender2.net/forum/post323197.html#323197

Mmmm,

Much like the Defender, Sir Paul is a bit of an icon. Did some interesting things with some Triumph Bonnevilles a few years back, which I liked. Not sure about this though, does look a little like a breakers yard botch-job. Ho hum, at least it's for him and not a Special Ed for sale. Be interesting to see it in the flesh though.... Monsieur Le Grenadier

I've not been everywhere, but it's on my list.....

New stuff going on tomorrow hopefully.

Following on from above, new top mount brackets on, and shocks etc all set and ready to go.

Hopefully for more than a few months now. Rolling Eyes
