I've had a quick look on the website and it seems they no longer do them, could ask Phil to remake um, but a one off would be pricey. Maybe a nice welding project..... The attached picture is my Defender up on them. The side steps (as seen in pic), make up the ramp section once re-positioned...

Far away from anything you like, just in case. Its not paint spray so isn't greatly affected by wind. Rain would be a problem. You could do it in your garage, but as you said lots of plastic. I'd wait for a dry day and do it out side. Spend plenty of time masking any thing you don't want...

+1 for DIY. I spent a while considering taking it to someone, but ended up doing it my self. It's not my favourite job by a long stretch but easy enough. I used Dinitrol and brought the more expensive Dinitorl gun, this was worth its weight in gold. Really good buy, lots of different...

Hi All, I'm in the process of sticking in an ARB air locker to my Salisbury. I changed the pinion bearings at the same time as they were not feeling so good. So far so good, followed the LR service book on pinion height, rotation torque for pinon, and ARB install book on the the spacers for...

Hi dave658. Just clocked this thread. Impressive build / achievements good work sir. I do have a question, if the new transfer box spits out rear output in the centre what rear axle will you run? Will it matter if you use Left or Right offset? I'm very close to you, would love to come take a...

I used Landy Glass, which I think is now called VGS as noted by twelsh37. It was very easy to fit, instructions were clear, clean the area, apply the glue, wait a bit, stick it on, tape it in place and leave it to dry! Would be worth getting some one to give you a hand to stick it on as they can...

The 2nd link was not a video, same link as first. I have a 3.5 V8 and I do not have this part (maybe I should!), interested to find out more. Mine is a few years newer - 91

The Defender work shop manual (1993) note movement should be between 0.127 to 0.257mm Rover Type

Nice, good luck!

If its Salisbury,a d it is your diff that's gone, it may be easier / cheaper to get a new axle, than swap out the diff. Changing the diff is possible but there's a lot of special tools, and measuring that needs to be done. You'd need a specialist garage. Removing the shafts and prop will...

1) can I damage anything more than it is by driving with the difflock engaged if the rear diff is broken? Yes, possibly quite a lot more. Bearings, other currently un-damaged gears. 2) will i need to pull the entire axle assembly to replace the diff? What axle / diff do you have? Salisbury or...

Low speed? There are 5 10.9 tensile strength bolts snapped there! That's impressive. But that aside, remove what remains of the bolts and check the internal threads for damage. I'd welds nuts on the the end and run them out. Failing that, try Easiouts, and last resort drilling. I'd steer away...

I have the Landy Glass fitted as shown by Turktowner, and they don't replace the whole panel, as they are bonded to the side panel, but it does mean you can cut out a square and wouldn't need to be too precise.Just need to remember what ever you cut out, it will be visible on the inside, and if...

Hi Yokel, I have a little knowledge, but my thoughts are: rear main oil seal leaking - I don't recognsie the terminology used here, but assuming engine? slight weep front diff pinion seal - Could be over filling with oil (unlikely if done by a garage), could mean pinion seal needs changing...

That was my thought of the Mud one, but based purely on look at it on the web, may be very different in real life. No not a bale of hay, but a pine tree which covers the poor thing in needles! It would be cut down if it weren't protected.

I'd recommend the Raptor unit, have one fitted to mine, its solid, with loads of room for bits. Like you a narrowed mine down to Mud and Raptor, I like the almost OEM look of the Mud one, but in the end went with the Raptor as I though the mud version didn't look as solid. Unfortunately I...

Thanks both, as with everything I do I suspect many different orders will be needed. Would be nice to order as much as poss before I start to keep the re-build to a minimum time, but I don't have a time scale to stick to. Definitely want to stick OEM or Genuine with this as going back and...

Hi All, Looking at a winter project to re-build my V8. It's a 3.5 on SU's. I want to keep it as 3.5, and keep it carb. Not sure if to go Webber of keep the SU's, but can decide that a little closer to the time I guess. I've searched the forum for suppliers of parts for the re-build, and found...

All those hinges, and the door check strap look like the one from my 1991 Defender. So I would say Defender.

There was some very light weight foil backed polystyrene stuck to my roof under the head lining. Seemed original. Hope that helps!
