    Defender after market callipers

    Right thanks chaps...I'll look into this. I'm off road every day but also have to cover big miles towing heavy stuff so suppose its a trade off regards discs. Although brand new callipers for 80 a set is tempting as a quick and easy job! I've 2 weeks to get the following done... New doors...

    Defender after market callipers

    My front brake calliper are well past best..discs tell quite a story!!! Replacing the discs and hoses. But have question regards callipers. I was thinking about new pistons and seals but some say its a tricky job. So noticed callipers for around £40 quid online. But wondering are...

    Resent to you. Don't know why it didn't go through...apologies. Right folks..so assuming my crossmember is coming from press brake... My hi cap tub has been chopped at underneath to accommodate tipping frame etc. I notice there are little plate brackets on top of the crossmember which have all...

    defender warmer heater ?

    My heater seems very efficient. It works so well I would have to say it has never even warranted a second thought. About the only thing working well at the moment.

    To sell or not to sell. That is the question.

    My friend had a chassis that he was assured was in need of replacement. He's very good welder and refuses to be beaten with anything. He disregarded the need for new chassis. Bought new x members, outriggers, other bits and some sheet steel. Welded it all up...patched any chassis bits properly...

    Thanks for tips...you meaning the actual welded footwell rather than the bolted plates on bottom of mine? The fottwell areas seem OK but if need be I will just cut them out. Oh heresba question.???...my rear cross member has 2 welded brackets that the hi cap tub attaches to. I notice one...

    You will maybe notice some of the welding isn't super pretty...again, don't be put off its actually very good...think built for a purpose rather than visual appeal.

    Yeah, I'm very impressed with them...and the price!

    GOOD! Payback to all the buggers responsible for dozens of dents on my vehicles over the years! Seriously though...measuring up they don't actually protrude as far as my wheels do (big wheels and tyres). I put extended arches on and front tyres still peek out a bit...back are OK as Hi cap tub...

    As photo shows they have pride of place in hallway...wife seemed in agony when she stubbed her toe on them so pleasing to know they are nice and solid. You have to take pleasure in the little things in life;)

    90 or 110 which is best for towing?

    Must admit I've never found much difference apart from turning circle. Driving my hi cap on and off road every day...constantly puling something 100% of time and in all manner of extremely tight spots every day. Have no big issues at all.

    110 exhaust fittings?

    Thanks James! I assume just few rubber mounts and gaskets as well then?
