This is my old and recently sold Disco since the new owner got his hands on it. I did the bumper and snorkel but he did the rest. I am quite jealous, although apparently he had to do a lot of welding underneath. Glad to see that he retained the 'mudclub' sticker  :wink:
Spacemud misses his Land Rovers :o(

Fall apart ?

Over the last 4 weeks on mine;

Rebuilt 4 body mountings
Rebuilt both sills front to back
Had to replace floors in rear
Had to rebuild both rear inner arches
Had to rebuild drivers footwell
Had to rip the rear quarters off to rebuild the inner rear quarters

Have gone through 8sqft of steel so far ! :shock:
Recommended wading depth 500 inches, no wait, im sure that was milimetres. And let me get this right. The breakover angle is 80 degrees....??

Ahh, f**k it, Il give it a go anyway
