Ok people, while you were all having fun at LZ event, we were working really 'ard on this damn truck. It now runs and is really LOUD

Here's some of what we've done for you old folk that don't follow us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/DefenderProject if you're feeling modern

Custom props £££££

New Transfer case

Trying to seal up stupid bead lock wheels (still go down anyway!!!!)

making some very sturdy seat mounts

Getting a move on with the cooling to the rear rad

And some loud noises for you if the vid works

Sweet ..

When you're ready for the beadlock ring to go on, spray some hair lacquer around the bead. Seriously. We used it on Bike handlebar grips and tyres, it's slippery to start with but dries sticky ...

I've already had em off and used a load of flexible silicone sealant. Hopefully they'll seal better when they've been used a bit
