HELLO .. ..

I finally received my LAND ROVER this morning ..

Oh la la, plactic is not an excessive thickness :-)

One piece is missing (SNORKEL) :-(

I advised my seller by email, and I hope the recovered very soon .. I await his response ..

This big LAND ROVER will certainly need reinforcements at several locations (frame + body)

Shocks (springs) are very rigid, oil shocks are welcome ..

The battery ( 2 ) are already on their chargers ..

I will study this (BIG TRUCK) from all angles, to get a sense of its construction ..

For the price, I am satisfied ..

I will order my bearing ( 10 ) Tuesday or Wednesday ..( To be replaced by plastic bearings )

I wonder if we can improve the flex of this LAND ROVER somewhat, while installing double oil shocks ..

I will ask more questions JACOB S on the functioning of his (central pivot) ...

and J33P3R will probably good advice to give me on several subjects ..

I will go step by step .. Thanks guys ..

PS ................

Two small photos of me ... And my ((LAND ROVER))

Hey hey .. the guy beginning to be old ... :-)

Great loulou,keep us posted on your mods

HELLO ..........

I already started to dismantle my LAND ROVER :-)

Springs pairs of shocks (stock) do not have the same extension .. One is longer than the other .. And very very hard ..
Waiting for my oil shock, I install springs 1/10 RUBICON .. I think the performance will be better .. I will do the same work on the other six shock ..

WOW Loulou,you don't waste any time The "Canadian Fabricator" strikes again

I'm sure that it will be a tough truck when you are finished

Repair this frame is long enough .. This week, I will buy the necessary materials and begin to make plans .. I want to keep the character of this LAND ROVER .. Therefore, repairs will be camouflaged :-)

Hooray !! Loulou has the big LR!! MAte , you do not waste time do ya! Already the problems have been identified! good work.
I too am interested in this pivot system that has been seen on the modified lr3.
I have been working on my jeep and my other little jeep and have not done as much on my Landrover.
Now I am happy he master modifier has one for me to see where to focus my mods.
well done loulou

HELLO ............
THANK .. J33P3R .. The work is very long .. Before that my pieces are delivered at home .. And the frame is a puzzle for me .. But have said .. Little by little, the bird makes its nest .

NICE LR3 loulou...very big and looking mean....

didnt waist much time eh LOL ...good luck with your mods on it.

just a though...that body of the lr3 would look nice on 1:10 axles i guess...but would need a custom chassis due to wheelbase

Good to see you finally got your lr3 Loulou!

Can't wait to see what you come up with! Building them better and stronger is half the fun!

loulou congratulations .nice to see you have that big boy . much fun to be had .dont forget LOCK THAT DIFF .

Hi loulou, I can't open front diff, you wrote that You cut small parts but how did you take out the ends which are connected with wheels?

You must remove the small plastic restraints, which is placed under the clip ..

Hi Loulou, Your land rover looks so nice that i didn't notice that a part was missing

The delivery time is long enough, but I told the seller that snorkel was very important to go under water .. or on the water ..
