Jake:
Hi Suggs

This one will be used, hence the already dented panel work  ;)
Just got a few more mods to do before i go and do some proper laning weekends!
 :D

kizz81:

looking very nice, given me some good ideas ! thanks :clap:
although i prefer the raptor engineering dash i do like the look of the mud consol,
nice one!!!
cheers kieran

Jake:
Today i started on the van conversion.
This will make the back end much more secure when the camping and stowage equipment goes in.
Also while the sides are off i'm changing the cappings for genuine galvanised ones
Panel removed

Inside

One side done



I'll do the other side tomorrow and change the tailgate on Wednesday (weather permitting)
 :afro:

Jake:
Tuesday
After dodging the morning rain i set about the other side today
First job is to undo every nut and bolt that holds the side panels in place

Then remove it

Remove the rusty capping

Then i fitted the new capping and the other non window side panel (which come from a 88" Series 3)

As you can see i had to throw in the towel today as the light disapeared




Wednesday
The weather held off today so back out to do some more.
Today is swap the tailgate day  :dance:
You can see why it needed to go   :shock:







Off with the old and on with the new (er)

I took this opotunity to re-set the spare wheel carrier so its closer to the door.
Much better fit  :D

I didn't spot it before but there is no hole on the out side for the rear wiper or the hole for the wire from the heated screen to run down through.
I'll go and buy a hole cutter tomorrow and deal with those  ;)

One side back togther



You can see the new cappings clearly here



Back together again!!

Just got a few minor jobs to finish in the morning and then get it prepered for painting
