Hey guys, new member and thought I'd introduce my Rover. It's a 1982 Land Rover Lightweight. From what I gather it was in the British Army from 1982 to 1999. Still sports the original 1990 Desert Storm paint and Allied marking on the doors, although the war ended before the truck left the UK. You can also see a blueish type paint underneath that I believe means it also did UN duty at some point.
Upgrades have been modest thus far:
OME Steering Damper
OME Shocks
Converted front brakes from drum to disc
Removed oil bath filter and added K&N Air Filter
Optima Red Top Battery
Replaced one rear bench with a pair of jump seats
Hella Vision headlamps
Defender Side Mirrors
Fairey Overdrive
Kenlowe Fan
Jackall jack
Magnecor High Performance Ignition Wires
I intend to continue to upgrade it over time and welcome any feedback or suggestions. Thanks for checking it out.
p.s. I'm dying to get a Sankey trailer to go with it if anyone can source one. Thx.
