The brake hoses on the circuits to the front of the car became so aged that they swelled to the point of holding the brake pressure and locking the brakes.

New axle straps are still made of canvas and making progress on the new brakes.

All of the brakes on the Land Rover will need to be replaced. Here is the first of the new cylinders and brake pipes.

Three of the bleed screws were broken off when I got the truck. EZ-Outs were not able to remove what was left of them so a new set of cylinders will need to be installed.

On the last outing the Landie had become filled with dust. Hopefully a new set of gaskets for the front vents will help a bit.

The tires and wheels are back on the truck. For the first time a spare tire is mounted to the hood although probably a wider tire than would be desired. A spare tire also still resides behind the front seat. At this point the brakes need to be bled but it has been discovered that three of the bleed screws are broken off.

A set of new canvas axle straps. Interesting they are not the same length as the rear end housing has more support on one side.

A new set of BFGoodrich Mud Terrain T/A KM2 tires and a full set of sandblasted and painted 16″ wheels.

Inside of the front left drum had become filled with oil and brake dust that had the consistency of axle grease. One of the springs for the rear shoe is also missing. Time to take it all apart and clean it up.

New Yellow Top battery to handle the load of the new winch.

New stickers to add a little something extra.

The 9000 lb X9 SuperWinch has been mounted to the original front bumper.

The bumper is removed for straightening and mounting the winch brackets to it.

New water pump and all new hoses.

Attached the new rear receiver.
