Mikey,

Having used the buzzweld products on the shell underside (rust encapsulator & WAR) would you recommend them?

The underside of my 2009 D4 is starting to get scabby so I'm looking into products to sort it. Thumbs Up

Updates. Updates... Neutral

I fitted the OS lower wishbone

Currently in the middle of a Defender chassis swap, a full diary until 10th September, and have to fit in a D3 engine replacement, L322 engine replacement and a Defender Puma engine replacement

Paying work has to come first, unfortunately (or fortunately, to fund this project, whatever way you look at it Laughing). Trying to find another tech currently, but trying to find someone who actually WANTS to work on LR products is proving somewhat tricky Laughing My D3 Build Thread

New torque converter, sump and connector sleeve fitted

May not look much, but now only a weeks worth of rebuild to go, hopefully mostly over the course of this month Thumbs Up My D3 Build Thread
