    This is the Purple Beast.

    Hello everyone

    Looking at the rear chassis legs, it’ll be either a new rear half chassis or a full galvy chassis.

    What have you done on your 90/110/130 today?

    Looks good. I think the wheels need a coat of white to finish them off. The black looks like primer to me. Just my opinion though. If you like the black wheels, not a problem. 😁

    Wolfs with drum brakes.

    I fitted longer studs all round. On the fronts, there is plenty of thread showing.

    Collecting wheels/tyres

    Good idea tying them down. Mine moved so much on the journey home that I thought they’d exit through the back door!

    Prospective 130 owner...

    Hi and welcome! Good luck with your search. Let us know how you get on. Make sure you invest in lots of good security measures too. Landies are popular with thieves.

    Comp Safari Greenhall farm August 3rd 2025

    I used to trial with one of the local all makes clubs in Somerset in my teens. I marshalled at a couple of comp safaris too in the Minehead area. Great fun and a good way to get yourself known in a club. Great pics too. Looks like a fun day out. 😎

    Collecting wheels/tyres

    I had five 235/85 tyres on wolf rims in my 90 with space to spare so you should be ok with the 90.

    The Past

    Nice bit of history.

    Defender Lift

    What age is your defender? Replacing your suspension with new standard springs and shocks will be an improvement if the current ones are original. Consider upgrading with the likes of old man emu.

    Awning / Tent for a defender 90

    ARB kit is good but expensive. I’ve been looking at an awning from 4x4 direct which is cheaper.

    Hi everybody!

    Hi and welcome! Make sure you also invest in some decent security measures too. Landies are very popular with thieves.

    What have you done on your 90/110/130 today?

    Got the 90 back from the MoT. It passed but has a couple of advisories. A rear shock is misting slightly, a rear wheel bearing has slight play, the fuel lift pump is showing signs of weeping and the bulkhead outriggers will need welding. It’s got me thinking of a galvy chassis…
