Thank you! Thats what im trying to do, just better, cleaner with a few upgrades. 😁 Fitted the front and side lightguards I fabricated a couple weeks ago. Im very happy with the outcome If I did make them again I would make a couple tweaks but nothing major. Roll cage next week! Thatll...

100% just not worth it.

Mine was so seized in place I had to use a trolley jack pushing a crobar to dislodge the a frame from the axle. Bolts on the arm to the A frame would not come undone even with heat + 1500nm buzz gun. So grinder. Get new bolts The 3 into the chassis all sheared. New bolts. My first a frame the...

First time since I bought it. A proper clean! Underneath, inside and outside. Took ALL DAY 🤣 got quite alot of the scratches out. Quick polish too Exhaust pic 😀

Or grease will do. All youre trying to do is keep the temp down!

Thats fairly decent for an auto! Often seem them in the mid to high teens. My 110 around town returns abour 20 - 24mpg, heavily tuned but mway driving 28 - 32

Same. Not really a thing in the UK. Older land rovers are very easy to work on and fairly difficult to get things wrong in terms of fitting suspension. End of the day the front end is only 3 bolts (think) to change a front damper and spring on a D2. Just make sure everything is done up...

You can get Defender AC Condensors off ebay for £120 + a 15" fan for how ever much you want to spend, I went for Spal for £80. Why do you want to avoid the the AC grill? Can often be had for £50 look much better imo! You can tap stainless use tapping/cutting oil. Go slow.

Forgot to add... Just waiting on a few bits to arrive. Normally closed pneumatic solenoid, dont trust the alliexpress one to actually last 😅 Will mount it in engine bay on the bulkhead Also got some stainless steel braided sleeve. I can run the rubber vac hose through it for an added layer...

Finished all the welding on the exhaust! Sounds bloody brilliant!! 😄😄😄😄 Also forgot how much exhaust noise is actually taken out by the VNT so its perfectly acceptable to drive around in ASBO mode 😂 normally. From the drivers perspective 😅 On quiet mode its quieter than standard so thats a...

The tread pattern. Very loud, very noisy, bad in the wet, bad on tarmac. Just generally awful on the road. If you want mixed use the any all terrain or something like Toyo MTs. What is the use of the landy?

What about them? For just off road use then yeah great. Road use lord no, mixed use also no.

Rocker cover bolts are fine to reuse. Need a dab of RTV around the halfmoon on the rear.

Yup that'll do it!!

Jesus! Deffo need anew caliper!!
