    Suspension is on the way :D Same set up as before, couldnt fault it in anyway. Excellent flex, excellent ride. Had the OME Springs in the garage for a couple months, this was a "risk" as I did spend a huge amount of time researching the spring rates for the old 110. Bought the same ones...

    Looks better in the daylight! Subtle but not over bearing in colour given that its all black. Really happy with the bumper, a face ive not seen in a long time! Wired into the high beam switch and a carling switch. Very happy 😍

    The wings are not in good condition 😅 heavily dented and damaged. I have fitted them, they look good just not 100% on the colour! Also fitted the D44 Winch bumper, bit of a effort to fit but worth it. Intercooler has to come off so 3 holes can be drilled in the front crossmember. Fitted...

    Defender TD5 Starting Issue and More!

    So this is related to a mates 110. Almost identical symptoms to my old 110. Had the truck over a year, has always had a strange starting sequence. Feeling like it starts up on 3 cylinder after a few seconds, fires up on all cylinders. Got progressively worse in the freeze overs, would take...

    Collected the brand new FPR hose from my parents and went about fitting it. I was reluctant to remove the inlet because its long so made a tool! 14mm 12 sided socket, cut down the middle with an extension welded on and grinded to 14mm sq. Perfect size to both remove and tighten up! No...

    Wanted Defender Front Axle Case TD5

    Has anyone got a Defender front axle case? The later one with M16 radius arms. Ideally close to Bromley, Crawley or Sittingbourne.

    Defender drop arm

    Yeah it happens. Must be tightened to 176nm. Driven, checked, re tourqed at least twice. Then knock the washer in place again. I did mine up with my buzz gun, then torqued if. Wasnt tight enough, drove around for a couple days and had come a touch loose.

    Magical drive home. Got half way back and thought hmmm smells very diesely. Hmmm its getting worse. Pulled over and the FPR hose had come loose and popped out the head! Managed to *just* nip it up by knocking it round with a screwdriver and hammer enough to get me home. Not sure how that...

    Bankz's Discovery 2!

    Might be true but I hated the BCU, the P38 era wiring, its size, its weight and lack of parts support compared to a Defender. That and being called a Gypsy 🤣

    A better Defender replacement than the new Defender?

    Thats actually rather nice. Tbf probably wouldnt be that difficult to add a CDL
