I’ve just having all new tyres fitted to my defender. While it’s on the axle stands I had it in high drive and put it into gear the rear wheels spin ok but the front driver side didn’t spin passages span ok. As though it was binding as with abit of acceleration it span. Turned it off and they...

Don’t think I did as I bled the complete system

I brought a new coolant expansion tank and cap for my defender back in January. Fitted no problem. It’s taken to now to get it back on the road due to work etc. Took it out and I started to over heat as I turn back into my street. When I checked there was little to no coolant in the tank and...

Didn't go for a shielder chassis in the end. I went for a Richard chassis. There not had much different in price and the reviews seem good. Is a rolling chassis now and seem to be going together nicly.

in the new year im planning on rebuilding my defender 110 on a new galv chassis. The plan is to lift the whole body, doors and bulkhead in one. Rebuild the rolling chassis and drop it back on. As its 20plus years old most of the nuts will need grinding off. Does any one know what nut and bolt...

I googled por15. Said it's for a rust prevention. As it's galvanised I just want to paint so it don't stand out.

has anybody had any expirence with hammerite direct to galvanised paint. Was going to paint my new chassis with but was wondering if anyone used it and what's it like durability wise etc.

Is there any good disc, pad combination to suit my 110 better stopping.

Is it a simple job to change them. Could I just reuse the old ones and replace the pistons?

Defiantly use genuine seals. I think the front and rear crank shaft oil seals need change and I defiantly don't want to do them twice.

Can you buy new Calipers with stainless steel pistons?

I'm in the process of getting things together ready for my 110 rebuild. I've ordered a new Richard chassis, got a second hand pair of b posts galvanised. Next week I'm going to order complete new brakes, new clutch, possible suspension thing I want to know what's the best manufactor? Won't touch...

just had a quote from shielder chassis, £1800 delivered for my 110. seems really cheap compared to Richards or marsland but its all about saving a few quid. On there website says there manufactured in the uk. properly order one as its about £600 cheaper which I can send on other stuff on the landy.

just got a reply there's no v5 or any paperwork. don't think ill be buying that chassis. thanks for the help

thanks for the information I never really thought about that. I'll email him and ask about the v5 etc. thinking its not really worth the hassle

Im going to have a look at a galvanised rolling chassis tomorrow. its got tdci axles front and back. the chassis was a 2014 chassis which has been blasted and galvanised new engine mountings fitted for a 300tdi. the only question I have would the chassis fit my 1996 110 been that the chassis is...

think time has come to replace my 110 chassis. took the rear wheels of this afternoon to check brake pads, had a quick poke at the chassis and quite a few holes appeared. ive done a quick search and found a company called Shielder Chassis they seem to be quite cheap compared to the others. just...

I'm not sure, I'll take it out this afternoon and see what happens.

I've changed the cylinder head on my 300tdi defender, brand new oem part, new valves etc. basically all new up top. But since I've filled the coolant up as I've replaced the tank with a clear one I can see that on tick over there's bubbles blowing from the smaller pipe closest the rad on the...
