Replaced the downpipe gaskets after drilling and retapping one of the Manifold studs. Then I cut out the rusted muffler and slapped a straight pipe in there. Definitely throaty!
And the air filter was FILTHY!

Nice.

I replaced this yesterday along with the two low pressure power steering hoses... hopefully quelled most of the leaking over there.

A Land Rover has the ability to self flush fluids.

Removed the lower valance and factory fogs. Already had ripped the lens off the driver side on a stump.

My passenger side exhaust manifold is cracked all the way through so I bolted the two halves together and slapped some cement on it. Lol

Well... (using this forum) I have repaired the electrical connection to my rear windows to perfect working order. Fixed my front seats so that the electric movement (forward, back, up and down) works. Figured out what I need to fix my cruise control (waiting on parts)(vacuum pump) and reset my ANTI LOCK light and figured out what I need to do to get the codes to stop (new wheel bearing and wheel speed sensor)... needless to say this forum has saved me thousands as I was planning on dropping my diso off at a shop and telling them to "go at it." Brand new user so as soon as I "pass" my waiting period I will be posting and watching much more.

Also I am in the process of a wiring to make my signal lights (blinkers) also my day time driving lights having them stay on when switched and also having the blinker fuction still work... it is a wiring work in progress. More to come
