Lots of work there mate, well done to keep another on the road, Rick

Thanks Rick, this one is well worth the effort, it drives fantastic.

A few of the otherside.

I found a guy that does a decent paint match, it still needs a bit more work paintwise, a good flat and buff etc. but it's presentable for now.
I also changed the rear shocks as one was leaking.

 

[terranosaurusdoug]

An aircon pipe was found to be leaking, I had mend-a-hose make me something similar in stainless steel, used a couple of compression fittings, and I bought the proper air con o-rings (apparently), tested it and gassed it up.at work and now I have air con

Also I managed to find a single din surround, only £60, last one I saw was £120

Did you fabricate those wing and sill parts or did you find a supplier? Rick

I bought the two rear arch parts from a supplier, everything else I made, mainly from 1mm steel, some 2mm. I also set my welder up to run 0.6mm wire.
This is where i got them from.

Sadly they only do sills for the Patrol, Rick

 

[terranosaurusdoug]

Does anyone know what's behind the dash on passenger's side? I want to put two 12v outlets there, I will obviously have a good look fir myself first but was just wondering if anyone knows, cheers.

If it is a 2000 then it should have an Air Bag, Rick

It's a 2002 but an import, definitely no airbag.

 

[solarman216]

Ah that explains it then, no there should not be anything behind where you want to put your sockets, but pull the glove box and make sure there is enough space, Rick

 

[terranosaurusdoug]

I've got code 18 guys, any suggestions what to look for, it seems to drive fine, thanks.

 

[terranosaurusdoug]

Hello everyone, I've not been upto much, I have however fitted my wheels and tyres from my last Terrano onto this one, 265/75r16, had to trim the mudflaps a bit but otherwise no problems, no suspension lift yet.

[terranosaurusdoug]

Hi everypne, well I can't believe I've this Terrano a year already, but it's true cos I've had to mot it :lol
I took it on Friday, it failed on the osr anti rollbar drop link and got an advisory for an exhaust bracket detached, I'm happy with that, goes for re-test tomorrow :thumb2
