And here are the stars of the show..

A full set of the new TerraFirma All-Terrain shocks, also a new set of TerraFirma front turret rings to go with the Land Rover HD springs at all 4 corners.

 

Got the fronts done today with new shocks and springs. One shock turret was rotted out lucky for me being a long time Rover owner I had 3 or 4 on the shelf. So it was a grab and go fix.

It was a definite improvement, the ride quality is good. Better than OME/Blings I've ran in the past.

Of course anything would have been an improvement over the original land rover shocks I pulled out.

 

I love this thread

 

Glad someone does lol. Sometimes I just think I'm posting so I can go back and look at all the work I've done.

I took it out and played in the new fallen snow on the unplowed roads. Those Guard Dogs hooked up awesome, even when I was trying to slide or spin the tires the 110 just dug in and went.

 

-3 and I went out to play with it a bit more. I replaced all the turn/stop/marker lights with new lenses from our friends at Lucky8. It's amazing how much the new lenses improve the look. The old ones were clouded and cracked. Now you might even see my brake lights now lol.

No pics my fingers were to cold to get the touch screen on my phone to work lol

 

This is your first clue it's to cold to be outside working....



and a few pics of the new lights on the 110.








Before anyone says it the MGB will be back in the garage by the day after Christmas, I needed to hide a few presents and there wasn't room in the garage with it in there.

 

Dam Santa, a car sized load of presents...wow.
Mg has a little igloo garage forming, so you got that going for you.
Lights looking good. . That thing getting warm enough to produce heat with that panty on the radiator?

 

Without it no chance, I had to close it up more to get the engine up to operating temp with the current single digit cold snap. It's the first time in my life I wish I had a half clogged radiator Going to put a new WaxStat (thermostat) in it tomorrow or Thursday, just so I can be sure its opening and closing as needed. I picked up the waxstat, gaskets and everything as well from Lucky8. I was really happy to find out he carries OEM replacement parts as well. You just have to call him for those.

I made one mistake I didn't see coming today as well. I cleaned and lubed the tracks on the sliding window in the driver's door. My hope was that it would stop freezing shut. Well it slides great now, if I brake hard it slides right open on it's own lol...

 

Oops that is pretty slick. Maybe friction tape for a temporary quick fix.

 

I just spin the **** and lock the slide but with my luck that will freeze now lol.

The present is pretty good sized but it's easy to hide it in car part clutter. It's the updated headlights, grill, tail lights, mirrors, rims/tires and bumper assembly for my wife's ML320. The update will make it look like the 05 ML350 giving her truck a nice little face lift. She decided she didn't want a new SUV last year allowing me to get the 110 so this is my way of saying thank you
