IMO black pack looks good on a white D4 ... assuming you like that imperial stormtrooper look Whistle

A cheaper 'ronp budget' option is:
1) take a few pics and print off.
2) colour in the silver bits (of your choice) with black.
3) stand back, screw up your eyes and look.

You can even set different variations side by side to compare.
Trust me, it'll save you a fortune.

Works for me on all my topics. Thumbs Up

Thats a great idea Ron Laughing . Will save me a fortune Thumbs Up

Less than 24 hours after i got it and the faults are starting to show Rolling with laughter
Oh i have missed the joys of landrover ownership Rolling Eyes

Fault 1-Not available showing on oil level
Fault 2- Rattle from front of engine at around 2000rpm- caused by auxiliary belt fraying and flapping
Fault 3- slight vibration/judder when accelerating from standstill with slight right hand down- suspect front arms will cure this
Fault 4- Oil mist from inlet y piece o rings

Done it with the bonnet open and still same. Just read faults and there is a live fault on oil level sensor so it looks like mine is duff.

Tensioner is fine, just missing the inner rib of the belt and have a strand whizzing round catching stuff-new belt ordered

Going to get it up on ramp on Monday when I can get in my workshop.

Just ordered a set of o rings

Hopefully that will be it for a while🤣

I fitted the AF polly bush ones last week and it’s fixed my low speed rattle and the knocking I was getting when turning. The poly may last longer but the ride is certainly harsher, especially with the 22” wheels.

i went for the HD arms with solid bushes (4 year warranty) instead of the oil bushes. Seems a bit harsher than before but still loads better than the rattling knackered ones that came off Mr. Green
