https://ibb.co/L0pKZnZ https://ibb.co/tLwBvt2 https://ibb.co/zGpYGKK Having seen the outrageous prices for these things, I've scribbled my own together and am planning to send drawings to the laser cutters next week. Wouldn't be too difficult to have them make up more than just my set. Can...

Hi Dom, Try Masai, they used to do a proper shooting hatch for the rear, not sure if it still exists, but here's a link to their 'windows' page: https://www.masai4x4.com/defender/shooting-hatch-wide-opening-roof-window/Windows-c821930 it would require only minor mods to the roof lining, which...

If you want the raised lip, just buy 'stable mat' and aluminium angle, cut the angle to length and rivet with big washers -it'll catch and contain the crud, but you can pull it out to pressure wash. Alm.

Updates in original post, enjoy. Alm.

Not expensive, but a pig to change because of access. Be particularly careful with fitting the new one when it comes to routing the fuel line!!!!!!!! There should be a small cut away for where the fuel hoses sit. If it's this weathered underneath, check the seatbelt mountings if you have the...

Updates added in original post. Got the A/B/C Pillar Assembly and wheel arch inners at the galvanisers along with tub cappings and other random steel parts. So close to doing a big reassembling session....but struggling to find time at the mo. Next update in a couple months' time. Alm.

Updates added in OP.

Some basic things: 1. EGR Remove and blank (Also remove from ECU to prevent issues, happy to be corrected here, as I don't have an ECU) 2. Straight through exhaust, stainless or Al dipped works depending on your needs. 3. Full width intercooler, fram and stiffer hoses (silicon etc.) 4. ECU...

Fuel tanks ok, replaced it a year ago. Turns out there was the usual scruff rust between cradle and tank. I've wire brushed, primed and used marine paint. I'll stick a thin layer of SBR between tank and cradle to fix the built-in ****e "catching" design. I did think about the bulkhead, but it's...

Been a while since I posted, so thought I'd share some photos of the 1st leg of work on my 110 chassis swap, rebuild, repair and spray job. Myself plus old man did this over the course of 2.5 days; we're waitng on a Richards Chassis to come next week, and we'll pick up another 2 or 3 days work...

Looks same as mine n all, great bit of kit - crank nut might be a pain if it's not been done for a while, mind. Alm.

That settles it. Ill remove the bench seats and have the kids sit in the middle of the tub un-restrained. Problem solved! Alm. On a serious note, theres a shed load of data and "experienced G-shock vs. Death" graphs out there dating back to the 50's and 60's when Col John Stapp had a hard on...

As a temporary fix, you could use stove seal rope (ceramic braid) to tie it off :) This thread is great James, well done getting the Landy back together and looking proper smart. Looking forward to seeing the paint get finished off. Alm.

Don't mean to hijack the thread, but any ideas what paint code that is on that there 'fender? Mine is pretty much the same, but doesn't have a paint code under the bonnet! Alm.

If I understand correctly, braking under wet weather conditions is all about: Vehicle mass (and distribution thereof), velocity, contact surfaces, i.e. tyres and road. And to a certain degree, the efficiency of brake response and brake balance. The engine or the fact that it is 4WD has no real...

Removed DPF, replaced with straight through, and passed MOT (Sept '14) with zero advisories. This is on a 300tdi '98 110 CSW. Alm.

I would also check windscreen hinges...! Alm.

PM sent as world-wide distribution of immobiliser bypassing techniques is frowned upon!!! Alm.

Good time to check connectors for peripherals - some of mine are rotten, and I'm dreading working my up the loom to replace them. Wish I had this sort of access when I was sound proofing! Keep up the good work, looking forward to seeing the finished article. Alm.

Leave the doors unlocked, without clutchclaw or wheel lock. Just fabricate a locking bar so that you can't move it out of 1st gear low box -with side steps, there's no reason you shouldn't be able to run after it and apprehend the thief. I spent time in Moscow, and there was a spate of ruffians...
