    I hope Those Jap Whalers doing Research Slaughter don't confuse a Disco for a Humpback what.... those scientific harpoons pack a real bite.

    Don't know about tripping on something, my mate watched it all in his mirror and couldn't work it out.

    The lockers were out, only used them in low range.

    How big a job is the Range Rover swap? are the body mounts etc the same?

    Note that that wasn't a complete body swap, as it says that the RTA and eng. wouldn't certify a RRC body on a Disco Chassis.

    You need to fit the TDI + trans to the RRC Chassis.

    Ahh yes, I hadn't read it for years and forgotted

    Just thought it'd be easier than answering about the body mounts being the same

    Cheers procrastination I spotted it this morning, would have seen it earlier if I had of looked at the posts...

    Waiting to see what the insurance say, now that I've finally got around to ringing them, fingers crossed.

    Got a few pics of the damage now just got to work out how to put them up!
