rebuilding any landy is not just a labor of love but an excuse to get outa the dragons hair . not only that once its done you can drive in comfidance its done right ( no gaffer tape or gum ) so go on cause once its done you can say i did that
As a youth I could run up and down stairs all day now I'm older it takes me all day just to walk upstairs

Eeerm....you need to put this in the Series section not Discovery section!  :roll:
It's all down to personal preference.  However I am rebuilding my 110 cos it has taken me & the kids everywhere for nearly 10years & is part of the family.
When finished it will be better than out of the factory.  :twisted:
Did everyone see that?  Because I will NOT be doing it again!
