Thread: What did you do on your Landy today?

I hope they last. The Armstrong shocks I just replaced only lasted just over 30,000km.

They were a waste of money!

It would have been cheaper to fit even locally sourced Bilsteins rather than fit the Armstrongs and now the US-sourced Bilsteins.

heh, i have been out of carparts now for near 15 years, but it appears business as usual, armstrong haven't changed in any way

New bushes on the 92 classic.
When I moved house I threw away all my scrap steel, I needed it today for pressing in and out. Although some heat some freezing and a bit of force and the jobs done.
The car still has a few issues but it drives so well, I'm a bit reluctant to mod it too much.

Fitted a new radio today - so I am no longer limited to 6 CDs in the stacker but by the iPod fitted inside the radio.



I hate Sydney radio - I can't stand the talk, especially when there is more than one person in the studio. (And this from someone who used to be a part-time radio announcer/DJ).

Drove into town today. Used the 110 to pick up and deliver a new bookcase for my sister. Hit a roo on the way home, busted a driving light. (busted the roo as well, I think).

Pulled and so far half stripped a td5 engine out of a d2 this evening and yesterday evening

P38, Oil cooler hose.
Tip, spray them with WD40 a few days prior to thinking you need to take the old one off.
Be careful the fitting is alloy.

You were lucky to get them off without stripping the threads on the cooler. They gall quite badly.
