Hi all, next week I hope to inspect more closely and possibly purchase :-o :-) an 88 inch series one with my brother, and I would gratefully recieve any words of advice on what to look out for on this particular model, or indeed any SI. (Corrosion blackspots, etc). As my family have had landrovers for a long time, I know (I hope!) what we are letting ourselves in for!

Chuck is the only source of which I've heard. An SF Bay area LRO says Chuck will only sell the stuff if you sen him the seat, and he rebuilds it.

Date: Sat, 7 Jun 97 09:19:48 -0700 (PDT) From: davery@on-ramp.ior.com (Dale W. Avery) Subject: D-Day Comments I want to thank Jim Allen and everyone else for their comments about D-Day. Hopefully, we will all learn from those tragic days. Having just turned 49, watched with pride as my son graduated from high school, and prepare for my 24th wedding anniversary, I take much more seriously those things my parents and others have done for me. My mother's first husband was killed along the German border sometime in December, 1944. Four and one-half short months before the end of the war. He never got to see or hold his daughter, my older sister. My father was wounded while serving in an armored divison as it fought it's way into Germany. He never wanted to talk about what he saw there when I asked him as a child (As a Viet Nam vet, I now understand why). My mother was third generation German-American. Many of my relatives here in the States came from Germany just before WWI. I must have lost a lot of our kin and who fought on the German side of that dreadful war. I imagine cousin fighting cousin, brother against brother. How frightful and wasteful it all was. Let us hope that these horrors never occur again. T.F. Mills is right in reminding us that our bonds across the internet are based on something that is a result of that war. I personally am grateful that the "flames" we occasionally shoot at each other on this medium are harmless compared to the lead and steel our forefathers threw at their antagonists. Let us all enjoy our mutual admiration for that silly box of an off-road vehicle made made by those excentric folks in "Jolly Old". ----- Dale Avery KC7MM Ms Daisy '73 88" SIII ------------------------------[ <- Message 10 -> end | Table of Contents | <- Digest 970608 -> Archive Index | <- Browser -> ]

You don't need a fancy tool. Just get a piece of threaded rod a little over twice the length of the bushings and with a nut and washer against the spring and a deep socket or piece of pipe to pull the bushing into, start to tighten the nut and pull the bush out of the housing. I just did the two springs on mine, and except for one that I had to apply heat to, all came out with just this method. The one that took heat also needed an air chisel to get it out. Some bushes are really rusted in and require quite a bit of work to get them free. Dave VE4PN P.S. My 69 88" station wagon is for sale in Manitoba. Everything except the carb and dist. have been replaced or redone. New paint etc. and safari rack, winch and rear wiper. About $10,000 Canadian will buy her. ------------------------------[ <- Message 14 -> end | Table of Contents | <- Digest 970608 -> Archive Index | <- Browser -> ]
