Nick, I think the reference is to the posting of beauty shots on the technical section of 90 series. It used to be call readers drives on the other place if you recall.

Chris

You not at work to day then?

 

[BobMurphy]

That's very nice (and clean and straight .

But, why the extra fog light

A body lift must make changing the clutch and rear shocks so much easier

(There speaks the man with the scars).

But, why the extra fog light

Probably an MOT requirement... Not all imports have front and rear foglights - they're not a requirement in many other (less misty) countries

Cheers,

 

[Rob]

front fog lights are optional in this country, cant think of one where they are compulsory

 

[BIG clean GREEN]

The rear fog is a compulsary extra due to the SVA test (single vehicle approval) on imports !
Got my new WWW.landcruiser.net stickers on it today, looks the biz now !
The extra height should make changing the rear offside dampers a simple job now, changed both last year and it was a nightmare, also when the weather is better I'm going to get the chassis cleaned and waxed, be a lot easier now I can get to the top of the rails !

DOH

Of course, Those aren't fog lights in the upper light cluster

I'm learning.

Bob.

 

[Rob]

I thought we were referring to the small third additional light on the front

 

[Gav Peter]

Look again - its a big trick; there's two of them...

 

[Chris]

The neat thing on this particular model is that there is wiring already in there for front fogs/ drivers. Actually there is wiring for all sorts of extra things in the front end that we couldn't identify at all. Loads of grey plugs all over the place.

Making the brackets up to re attach the nudge bar was a bit of a trial. Shame it will have to come off when we fit the winch of course. Oh oh, I hear Mrs Nick approaching!

If I can find an import 80 that is as good underneath as this is, I'd be a happy man. It really is stunning.
