Look at the front chassis under the front bumper. you'll see an hole in each leg with rubber bung in em remove bung insert jack there 2 holes on the rear crossmember. for the same purpose
 
awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww i see :D

under the main chassis rail at the front. or under the x member at the back. does the standard jack have a round thingy on the end? if so, remove the rubber bungs in the front of either chassis leg and stick it in there and there are round holes in the rear x member for it too.

arnt those tubular outriggers on the sides for the same purpose?

No, if you have the pillar type jack (some Defenders come with a small bottle jack that goes under the axles) it is designed to go in the holes below the front bumper or in the rear crossmember.
 
Me neither I've just taken the handles off the bits of cross member I cut off mine the other week and there's half a bucket of sand, mud and rust on the floor under the vice. When I clamped it up it fell to pieces.
 
Does anyone know where I can get the chassis plugs from that plug the jack holes on the front dumb irons? Or the part number? Mine have fallen out somewhere along the line and I am a bit worried about the inside of the chassis filling up with rust inducing crud.

The chassis won't fill up with crud if you leave the bungs out cos the holes don't go into the chassis. If you have them fitted the dumb irons fill up with crud cos there are holes behind the bungs to let it all in, I experimented and found that if I left the bungs off then the holes dint fill up with ****e as much as if they were in.
