Shiney bits

Bought some lovely sparkly 2.5" stainless steel rock sliders for the freelander last week. Managed to get them fitted on Tuesday night and boy what a palaver! They come with tiny little bolts and washers so these had to be replaced, the rivnuts you use to affix to the existing chassis holes where a bugger to fit too!

The bars themselves weigh a bit too so lifting them to fix them was a struggle on my own. They do look great on there though, will have to get some photos of them and post them up for you.

Did notice a couple of little issues when I was under the truck, there is an odd drain pipe hanging out of the nearside wheel well, one of the exhaust rubbers is off and I have a bolt missing out of the sump guard. All easily fixeable though, might even get them done tonight :)

Postal delays

Well I've ordered a few shiney bits for the Freelander and a couple of other bits recently hoping I would get them in good time. With the postal delays I am missing a few bits, the people who used couriers though have got me their bits in good time.

I ordered my IR filter and that arrived the next day, a pair of rock sliders for the freelander came next day too as they we both couriers. The sunroof holder I ordered was RM though and that took 3-4 days to arrive!

Will have to bear this in mind when I order and send bits in the near future, can't help but think RM are going to be losing money and customers over this :
