They say the path to true enlightenment is found by discovering how little you actually know.

I plan on writing some stuff here about the restoration and then conversion of my aging Land Rover Defender: Daffy into a functional camping vehicle and then going on adventures.

So far it's been about fixing the stuff that keeps going wrong:

  • Headlight Levelling Servos (unfixed)
  • Air Conditioning Condenser (Removed but not replaced)
  • Headlight electrical fault (no dipped beam) - Fixed after replacing all the steering column switchgear
  • Diesel Heater (Unfixed)
  • Split Charge System (Unknown)
  • Winch (Untested but now connected)
  • Floor Mat (removed because it has holes in it and there is a water leak)
  • Water Ingress issue - Unfixed despite door seals being replaced
  • Door Locks frozen - Ignition Switch and door barrels purchased, Ignition replaced, doors TBA

And so on....

More updates soon
