    Had a bit of spare time today, don't go back to work til Monday

    Finished off the rear diff and finished stripping bodywork from the chassis

    Rear diff turned out to be a bit more expensive than first thought. It had had a major bearing failure at some stage. The list included

    Stub axles
    Hub seals
    Rotors and pads
    1 new hub
    2 new calipers
    Wheel bearings
    Ashcroft flanges and axles
    ARB rear diff cover (bugger of a thing to fit)

    Bit of an update

    Old chassis stripped



    Isuzu sitting in new chassis, just waiting on gearbox mounts to come back from galvanising so I can line up the engine mounts and weld them in

    Looking good mate!

    Careful welding gal - it doesn't smell good and the smoke does you no good at all

    While you have the engine exposed have a think if you want to have the dual spin on oil filters or extra oil feeds for a turbo etc. Much easier to drill, tap now than when it has all the crap around it.

    Slowly getting there, been a bit sidetracked. I quit my previous job and decided to go back to a casual 3 days a week with the occasional cash job. So I've been setting up my ute with boxes, tools, insurance and all the other stuff. The main reason was so I could have more time to get stuck into the Landy

    Diffs are now under the chassis with new bushes and a serviceable A-frame ball joint

    Finally got approval from Department of Transport, so I had the engineer here today to inspect the mounts. All systems go, so I managed to get the engine in this evening. Picking up the turbo tomorrow then I'll order the manifold next week

    My replacement footwells arrived the other week, so I'll be a busy man with the welder and drill getting those into the bulkhead

    Bit of an update

    I've been seriously struggling with motivation on this project. A couple of mates were heading to Africa for a trip, so I decided to pack the Landy in a container, sell the work ute and strap on a backpack and travel for a while.

    Hopefully I'll come back with fresh ideas and motivation some day

    That's if I can remember how to put it together again

    All the best with the trip Jock. An Isuzu in a gal chassis will still be here no matter how long you're away for

    Well back into it

    Had an awesome trip. I spent a month in WA, 3 weeks in Perth driving a tractor for a turf company then a week in Esperance. We swagged it for a week down at Cape Arid, brilliant spot

    Then to Africa, flew in to Joburg. Drove up into the Kruger spent 9 days there, then south to Durban and followed the coastline to Capetown.

    Then things went downhill, the three of us flew home for a funeral. Was a sad reminder that life is short. So I've recovered my motivation and I'm back into the Landy

    Brought it back into town



    I sold the Lt85 and found myself a taper roller bearing Lt95, so in with a new H/D clutch and in went the box





    Next I finished plumbing in the turbo, I made myself up a nice steel tube and stainless hose for the pressure side. Replaced the power steering pressure hose and kicked the big girl in the guts









    Picked up the tub and stripped it all back to bits. That is now in at the sandblasters and then ready for paint



    Decided against galvanising the firewall, as no one would touch it locally. So I asked the painter to use a decent primer, filled it with cavity wax and used a lot of seam sealer. I picked that up a while ago, it's now bolted in. Since the photo I've fitted the throttle pedal, half the dash and the wiring loom





    I also have the long range tank in place, just waiting on parts

    I'm just starting to run out of money, so progress will slow a little while I head back to work
