I have to agree on that one. My neighbours are getting a rapid education in the finer arts of swearing to the extremes whilst trying not to kick the crap out the pile of ****e on the drive.... What's the views on the stainless fittings are some better than others???? or is stainless stainless???

Those aluminum hinges look doody but buy by god they're expensive!! Won't be getting those how much money do people have.... About the fitting screws fitting any particular make recommendations there is all sorts on flee bay??? Have to to say it looks the only way ahead is going to be take the...

Don't they just do your frigging tits in... and they are only piles of rust and metal.......fook, fook, foooking thing......

That was the original plan yesterday but after repeated ****ting with said piece of wood and hammer plan B was as above, and well the results are pretty clear. I have proper fell out with the pile of ****e on the drive. Piece of ****e.......

I did try earlier ****ting them up with a big bit of wood and a sledge hammer. Haven't got a jack i could get on them Treeslider getting in the way. Any how to late fooked now, I Have no idea why the bloody thread will not line up, if it got much more in line you could fire a frigging bullet...

Today I manned up got soaking wet in the rain and tried to a very easy job. Three hours later i was cold and very annoyed. Job should have been remove door hinges from bulkhead edge, adjust captive nut position to raise door, chocks in to the bottom to adjust door height and hold in place...

Bump anyone got some in a draw somewhere!!!!!!

Hi, Anyone got middle and bottom hinges for the rear door on a Defender want to convert my tailgate to side opening?? :D:D

I was told roughly £1500 for a half decent job round my way.

just don't want the frigging bulkhead to rot it just does my frigging tits in! Anyone fitted the old rubber type seals? On a Defender?

put new foam seals in less than six months ago no good! hence the putty!

Before i buy some Tiger Seal, the blinking vents are leaking again i have put a load of flexible maritime putty on the inside of the vent flaps refitted and hammered them down!! They no longer move! when tipping a watering can around the seal it still lets in WTF!! So plan B is to leave putty...

drilled out weeping rivets! replaced them. took of front vent passenger side resealed with a pile of maritime window putty as it was still bloody leaking! Got soaked to the skin as it chucked it down whilst trying to put those awkward little bolts back in!!! Took the ammo boxes of the back...

Cheers everyone was looking at Lazy tongs just now. Would love a air rivet gun but would need a compressor first. I only have T Max compressor for the tyres. Looks like a set of Lazy tongs it is then.

Cheers Wolf.

right broke the fooking rivet gun it was my dads old one!!! any recommendations on brands worth buying or are they all the same???

so just trace all wires back and chop out? Job done?

Hi, Found the other leak! Thanks to a hefty dose of rain i seem to have found the other leak, weeping rivets can you believe it!! i have three of the beauties that come through from the rear tub into the cab that are letting in. Now before i get all industrious and drill them out put a big blob...

Hi, Anyone removed an aftermarket immobiliser? last owner disarmed it but still haves touch pad in the dash, flashing light, and the box of gubbins in situ. Is it can of worms i should not touch or an easy one???
