    steel wheels pics

    I like these ones because they are strong as hell! If you do offroading get some 8 spoke ones but if you like style over substance then these aren't very attractive.

    I find that people who have the newer defenders i.e TD5 drivers are in a different class! I tried waving at 6 of them and not one of them waved back! I got a sneering look from a few of them.

    Bellhousing bolts

    In the middle of doing me clutch, I came to undoing the bolts on the bell housing and I was wondering if at 12 o clock there is a bolt there, as it seems there is one but without a head! before trying to drill it out and what not I want to make sure this is in fact a sheered bolt? Thanks :D

    What to look for on a 98 300 tdi landy disco
