Just found out why my front left wheel was slipping under braking:
Apologies for the fuzziness
Wheel weight jammed in behind the brake caliper........... motor in with stealer now....Fingers crossed
Alloy scratched inside but no biggy there. CV Joint may need replacing too.
Oh but the memories.... the memories will keep me going

The foot is fine, who needs 5 toes anyway Thanks for the afterthought DW
By the way, several of you were interested in the Large Rear Mud Flaps I fitted. If you go to my gallery:
http://www.disco3.co.uk/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=1612
Scroll down and you'll find this pic:
... the rear right being fitted along with all the destructions in the picture's description. I've just updated the destructions following a refit , I now use plastic trim clips like this :
instead of screws for the two "extra" fixings. I've used the clips from the original plastic sills which I removed in favour of RLD's rock sliders. Formerly Disconutter

hmmm... interesting .. we didn't see one sheep .. loads of cows and a few deer
seriously . i was trying out an idea from one of my mates who owns a sign making company.
I was seeing would the contact film provide any protection from the brambles and branches.
and I was very impressed with the protection it offered. When I removed the film i had no scrapes.
The Orange was nice for the day that was in it ... but a bit hard to live with Monday to Friday if you know what I mean.
Im going to get it done in black , we did a quick test and you would have to look very closely to notice it (black on black)
Might even consider some G4 decals as my mate can print these on it ..
Not to everyone taste I Know.... But Im not everyone. One Wife.. Kill it ..
