    Roverlord, you may be in trouble.
    You have copied all these items from the "Standard upgrade Manual for Doomadgee Backyard Workshops".
    Pretty sure it's Copyrighted.
    Don't know why the wire door hinges aren't displayed?

    Pine Brake Shoes

    Great mods!!
    They use pine block as brake pads on the cable cars in San Fransisco. They need to be replaced every 2 to 4 days. The pads push on the rails so harder pads will just wear out the rails.

    Freelander 2 2011, manual, the daughter calls it Perri
    Before I had a Land Rover I did not have any torque wrenches. Now I have three.

    When I broke the diff ball joint mount on my 77 RRC, I held it together with a couple of ratchet straps.
    That got me off Rainbow Beach and back to Buderim where we pulled the back axle and welded it.
    Regards Philip A
    btw that “fabricated “ manifold is for a Mitsubishi Cordia turbo. My son bought a similar but better made steam pipe one and I made the bloody thing fit. It was impossible to reach one bolt on the flange so I had a bolt welded in .

    Will you be putting together and selling any kits for these mods. Could be useful to chuck some in the outback spares box for going away.
