well, big thanks to everyone for their input so far. Definatly been a big help. Picking the new to me D3 up tomorrow so can hardly wait - on the downside I can't drive if for another 2 months:mad:

Hey Shane,

Good to see I'm not the only one who saw the logic in jumping from an 80 to a disco 3.

I was still hoping you might buy my old cruiser (you sent me a message about it on lcool)

Welcome to the land of discos, I've been loving mine so far, especially out on the open road, it's so much nicer to drive than the 80. Can't wait to get it out bush!!

Cheers

Dale.

On the up side I have some time to order in all the required parts and special tools to get the job done

I did mine on my first D3, took me around 16 hours but I took it slow and was very careful, very aware to get it right otherwise................... mind you there was plenty of cups of tea.............
Its not a hard job but methodical.
Got the current D3 to do, around Xmas
PM me if you need any info
