I know what you mean about things being in pieces , hopefully they won't be for too long...

I can Fit the Flares , just a bit of loving with the 4" angle grinder using a really thin disc , just gotta mark things out , you might like to do them last when everything is done and then fit the bigger tyres . are they LRA Flares?


as or Cruiser we should be able to organise something there..:angel:

The flares are LRA XLs, in hind sight may have been a bad choice. They are a bit scary to fit to the rear doors:eek: You have to get them right or look bloody awful as must fit square and same height to the front:( I already have the angle grinder and thin disk with the Rangie parts so don't get used up on the farm:)

If you thinking some benzine and matches for the cruiser so was I for a wile:twisted: Its not insured any more is the only problem:D
If I don't get it done I will drag it out of our way and shove it back in latter on although I need to finish it before the rego expires as may be hard to blue slip with the mods:(

I'm thinking we should get the LRA body lift kits done on both Rangies 1st
Then do the diffs cvs etc.

I can do the flares latter or matt can if he manages to escape from Vic.:angel: Think I may need his help to get the blower to work in harmony with the Delco/Haltech engine management.

Have to see how we go for time as I don't want them all in pieces for to long like my other project are:(

You have mentioned getting my work and some of the project done... There are two other important things we have to make time for....... The fridge & fire and a tour of the Farm and local:angel:

The 2 door safari... I have no pics of proof yet... But believe me it has a bloody bad leak in the roof now:D

No worries lifting an engine here as have a chain block, front end loader or a back hoe to chose from:twisted:

I have to get rid of that 45 series cruiser thats in the way:eek:

I've just finished my last paying job till i get back from the simpson, so all I need is to give my RR some love and look at maybe getting up that way before I leave, no promises, flares a a peice of cake, a full day includeing lots of beers to look at them:D, you wan't some aluminium tape (rust repair in a roll) for sealing the back doors;)

The simo:cool: This is one ambition I have for the 120. Lucky I haven't as has sheered the bolts off the drive flange on the sals:( That would have been nice in a massive sand pit with a 4BD1 and 10 spline match sticks in the front:eek:

Will get some alloy tape. Thanks for that, it had me a bit worried in that area.

I hope you can drop in some time regardless of the project. When we get this thing sorted Khos and I are planning a terror run to a certain part of Vic:angel:

I'm riding Tojo style this one:eek: In the old mans troopy, along with Kimberely Camper in tow, luxury booze trip:D

Will organise a trip when you get down here......but be warned, not to many rovers in my lot, and lots of well seasoned boys:angel: thick skin is a little more than a prerequisate:twisted:

At least you know the troopy wont break:wasntme: Nice hear you are spending some good quality time with your old man. So many don't get around to it these days.

Well as for down your way if the HJ 75 that fell in the twigs a wile back is any indication I'd say your lot are very well seasoned. At least they will be able to take the psss out of the Rover I guess as most do:D. I will have to refrain my self so I dont break it down there as to far from home so I wont be doing anything to stupid... I hope:angel:

"There is only 2 vehicles worthy of ownership if you wan't to head into the australian outback, The Toyota Landcruiser and the Range rover..............but only one if you want to make it back:D"
