half way through building a front bar, built a snorkel (RML special),tightened wheel bearings and did a water pump and thermostat. Hopefully tomorrow finish front bar, sort out rear bar and deck lift. Weld all joins and grind back snork, paint and fit.

Yeah, put the radiator back in - engine normally runs cooler with one of them connected up and filled with water and anti freeze not liquid mud which you seam to be using

took the gammy factory cassette stereo out of the ln60 , made a panel to fill the massive hole it left and fitted a new stereo. fitted 2 new tow hooks so theres 1 on each corner now. will probably need them at woodhill next weekend ,to tow the stuck fullas out it will probably be muddy as. have to modify the rear bar i got from gimmemud. think it must have been fitted to his wagon after the body lift was done.
