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!!

Then it wont make much of a difference at all.

Have you got a cat fitted? Try sitting at 70 for 3 hours. They make a huge difference.

😅😅😅 cheers man. Happy to help! If you use button heads get A4-80 I always find the A2 ones round off very easily! And always run a tap thru the rivnut after!

Yeaaah glad they arrived! Id use countersunk rivnuts on the sides gives a nicer flatter fit!

Day off? I guess well I was still a work... Started on the valved exhaust! Not the easiest thing to make ALOT of rolling under and checking, even though I was using the original midbox as a template. I know 90° bends arnt exactly ideal for flow but at the end of the day its a 20 year old...

Yeah absolutely love it driving it. Just feels so much more enjoyable than the D2!

Busy day again! Seeing as the rollcage fitting is looming at the end of the month and given my new pressbrake abilities I thought id try my hand at the A Pilla cable runs! Came out rather well I think! Much neater solution than zip tieing cables to the cage! Bit boring but 30mm anti roll bar...

Only went and did some off roading! 😅😅 Went to Slindon Safari, only 40mins from me. Sadly didnt get many pics or videos as shortly after we arrived the drivers side CV started clicking its tits off... Slindon was fun though, nice site. Very open with mixed difficulty. Will definitely...

Hey, Got a few of these for sale if anyone would like a pair. Made from 3mm stainless steel. 6.5mm hole They may need some light cleaning up. Can include stainless M6 rivnuts & M6 Cap heads if wanted. £30 Posted.

Had some more thoughts! So the pano glass could be fairly vulnerable when off road so I thought I could make some window guards that clip onto the rollcage! Then to add functionality I can design it to fold down and act as a shelf or table, like the below. Be fairly easy to have a couple...

Since I got the 110 ive wanted utility sides. Just looks much better imo, especially as ive removed the boot seats and no plans to ever refit. But 110 van sides are very expensive and a fair bit of work to fit. S3 88" sides fit and are cheap but trying to find and un battered set is difficult...
