What did you do to your Rover today?

Rob, 3 out of 4 passing lol, don't worry about the last one. You try to swap out the hazards switch?

after over 3+ years of driving with no turn signals, I fought off the lucas gremlins with a test light and a can of smoke. 3 out of the 4 lights work and flash as they should. The last one is puzzling me, it has power, and is grounded, and the bulb is good, but it still doesn't light up....

Your roll cage rocks. Do you have a write up or better pictures anywhere on it?

This thread has some more pictures, and the reason for the cage in the first place: http://siteground237.com/~gunsandr/s...-Compatibility

I still need to do the door tops and tailgate though. I ran out of sunlight.

Got my home-built rack and rock sliders back from the galvanizing shop. New rooftop tent installed, and I couldn't be happier with the results. Just about ready for my first long trip.

Fixed leaky Heater Valve. Had to solder it permanently in open position on valve stem until I can get working part. Might go with a VW heater valve so I can control from cab as someone suggested on the site. Red Circles are where I soldered.

After reading about it in another post, I replaced the wood shim I had on my hood to help the spare clamps work with an old hockey puck. Seems like a good move, but will check for looseness in a few days.

If you are really in a bind, and don't want to pull the trigger on a new valve just yet, put a plumbing ball valve into the line, and a hose barb in to replace the old valve. That will buy you plenty of time to research and source exactly what you want.

I received my new to me 58 S1 109 on Friday. Truck is nearly rust free from Idaho area. Spent a little time getting it running.
Didn't start when we rolled off the truck. Spent about 1/2 hour in pouring rain with no luck. Pushed it in the garage with my tractor. Drained the transfer case, gearbox, fronta and rear diffs and replaced the fluids. Still need to do the swivels, steering box and steering relay. Not sure how to drain the steering box or relay, hay just top it off. Dropped a midasized exhaust. Manifold nuts came off well. See a number of task to take care of as it has been sitting for quite a while. With winter (salty roads) coming and a bugeye project in the garage it will be going to sleep for the winter pretty soon.
