Hi everyone.
New to the forum. Have had a Maverick since March and just bought a Terrano for the other half.
Looking forward to learning a bit more about them from you guys and hopefully getting involved. 😊

Hi Tim and welcome, 2 in the family already, you're clearly a wise man
We're more of a family than a forum

You will certainly find all you need to know here and more, by "getting involved" I hope you mean coming on some of the green laning weekends

Check some of these out to wet your appetite, are they LWB or SWB by the way?

Both lwb standard trucks at present. Met up with Madmark today who told me about the forums.

Only Picked up number two today. Normal rot ect to sort before it's on the road.



This was the maverick spring Mount's ect when I bought it before during and after .
















Outer seals, body Mount's it had the works.

The terrano is not so bad but needs some work.

I feel my first post was slightly silly now looking at how experienced you are.

Thats some cracking repair work there pal!!!! If you've already met MadMark you're already in safe hands

Nice pics from the plains too buddy, bloody land rovers

Haha yeah I guess you will be fixing another pair, not often you see solid terrano wings these days.

Ace a paint sprayer in the family, great stuff.

How did you fix the wings, did you fibre glass them or weld in new metal?

Welded them up. Used galvanised steel more so because it was free but also it won't rot that section as quick. It's a bit messy to weld but the end result is ok. Can take some pics of them fitted if that's what your looking for too?
