Not much happened to mine today.


Martyn

Started pulling the discovery apart pulled radiator out to give it a good flush pulled water pump off timming chain cover off to replace gaskets drained oil. Ive been having a bit of an over heating prob and i may of found the the reason there was a hole lot of (crap) blocking the fins on the lower half of the radiator. I also pulled the sump off to replace the sump gasket. I was going to change the auto trans filter and oil but now ive read about it im a little worryed that changing it mite stuff it up. you see im doing all this for our big trip to fraser on the 6th. I think i wil just change it. sorry no photos. I was able to do all this because we had jesus birthday yesterday thats when the family could be together.

My Disco spent the later part of today...and the last 4 days for that matter towing, pulling, tugging, dragging... varies items around the property including trains, tractors, parts of cranes and other cars

Always handy to have a few 4x4s on hand when you live on a property

My Defender rescued a Holden Captiva bogged at Goolwa Beach. No pics sadly they were stuck down pretty well up to the chassis. Luckily they had done some shoveling before I gave them a little pull.

We've been trying to figure out an easy way to get a 2.5 metre boat up onto the roof of the County
Bought the boys one for xmas so we can go fishing etc I'm now thinking of a front rack similar to this pic, but hinge it somehow so it lowers down onto the bonnet, slide boat on and then lift into place.

All ideas gratefully received

Mine sat at home whilst I was forced to drive a Hilux

I got into the Xmas spirit and gave mine the day off
