Oh [!Expletive Deleted!] forgot you were on here too !!!!!

Good morning darling daughter, I will talk to my supplier to get some tube cos that would look nicer than a bit of square box, Probably 3 inch diameter would be good ! Could put it on the bender as well So thats three front bumpers and three back ones ! Going to be busy I think.

I have got the mega heavy box one lying in the garage though just right for Sainsbury's car park  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:

didirangerover:
am I going to need a weighbridge to reclassify my vehicle as a hgv!!!
no hurry for bumpers anyway cos not sure when I can get up to you again. definately not til after chrimble!
just use your white one as a template!!
still fiddling about with the veg oil thing. I'm about to start a proper scientific experiment regarding ratios and moving onto the potential damage to fuel lines! keep you posted!

(never put a landrover in the hands of a science student!!)

ukmudmaster:
Made my rear bumper from 3" dia pipe, looks the part!! start on thr front soon.
As for veg oil,just put it in and drive, 50/50 with taxed stuff when it gets cold!
Our local Somerfields today had 1 litre bottles of sunflower for £1.03, it will soon be cheaper to cook chips with diesel,

didirangerover:
you want corn oil or rapeseed oil really and it's about 70p a litre from lidl... maybe a bit more in the larger supermarkets!!

iomlr:
heres the front bumper i have been working on, tools used 1 large angle grinder, 1 welder and some heat. oh and the good old favourite LUMP HAMMER. :lol:

i still need to trim the wings, awaiting arches they should be here any day now :) will repost when done i will need to trim and make good at the ends of the bumper but again just awaiting arches before i do this. i am also working on rock sliders too as we speak :)
