Thread: What did you do on your Landy today?

Decided it needed some more dirt, when for an explore of the Canobolas State Forest.
Good times
also booked it in to have the sunroof fixed tomorrow

oil cooler.
will post up later all the part mnumbers for the relevent gaskets etc needed.

Took 'Fred' and the car trailer to Grove again today, to pick up the assorted bits that once was a 1953 80" Land Rover.

The overheating issues of 'Fred' have now been resolved !!!! The new radiator works a treat and the head gasket isn't a problem, as no coolant was forced out during a deliberate hard drive down the Southern Outlet through the steep hilly countryside on the way to Grove.
.

Fitted the air bags to the rear springs, then got rid of a heap more dust/sand that was jamming things up.

Currently it's 'shockless' for a few days.

Today I bought myself an ex-army trailer. its a bit hard to identify, I know its not a no.5 ...I think it might be a variant of the "Cooks" trailer (source:- Australian Military Trailers -REMLR )


its a bit of a fix'er'uppa ...which is just the way I like it

anyway, here is a pic --

Spent a few hours blowing three fuses while trying to get the spotlights wired up on my D90 Puma. Still not going - I've had to give up. Never had to give up on an electrical issue before but this thing has me beat. I'll do some research and try again another day.

did you try running each one of the spotties to the battery direct (just tap the lead to the terminal and see if they flash on)

my guess would be - earth/positive around the wrong way, a short, or the switch or relay wired incorrectly.

at the very least tapping the wires directly to the battery will help isolate the problem.

Removed factory flares.

Fitted new Flat Dog Flexi Flares +50 mm to the SVX.

Now the 285's are all under the guards 😄
