Yeah spot welds suck! 5.5mm for rangie and 6.5mm for disco. Cobolt drill bit was the only one that lasted!
Land Rover really didn't go to much effort the engine bays them selfs are almost identical apart form the grommet holes for a/c heater and looms. Inside was a challenge the dash mounts are completely different so that was the biggest time waster pulling the damn thing in and out 1 million times to make sure it was right but everything lines up and fits so i got it in the end!
it has passed engineering apart from a little friction problem i have with the front brakes.... wasnt getting a good average. will change over the rotors for new ones and my local brake place are ordering the 'BEST' brake pads money can buy under 100 buks :P
I have been driving it on a temp permit the last month and I am pretty happy! The engineer pulled .8 g's going around and around a roundabout the other day and it handles very neutral too which is plus! \
