Project update : Lights, Damper, Cut

Lights
Almost every time we use the P38 a front side marker light goes missing. I don't know if the mounting tabs have gone bad on the truck or that we  sometimes use trees and rocks as a brake supplement.




We filled the mounting holes on the lights with RTV in hopes of keeping them in place.




They did not fall out on this little rock pile,  I hope it is a good omen.




Damper
The Terrafirma steering damper came in for testing.





I took the P38 down a 55mph ruff country road and the damper kept the 33in Nitto's under control and tracking straight.




As expected the damper did great off road as well.




Cut
After seeing the prototype for the rear bumper we could make the final adjustments needed to the fender flares.




With the way the flares line up on the P38 it is hard to tell we cut them or that they were originally for a Disco 2.
