Impressed with it. I think I might get their centre console trim thing now after seeing their stuffs good quality

I mounted spare wheel earlier. I’ve got fairly chunky tyres but nothing daft. The wheel tucks up to tailgate much closer and is a way better fit!

Haven’t got it out yet, snapped one stud extractor so I’ve left it soaking for a while. All I was doing was removing egr crap and that happens. It’s definitely been coking her up.

Looks well made and has big bolts welded in rather than studs that rely on a little tack of weld!

Shame to cover the new one up!!

B4stard! ****er snapped

Could hear chirping and had these in stock so put on new dayco belt and tensioner. Removed tensioner doesn’t sound terrible but isn’t silent so hopefully I’ve cured it. Sprayed all the underneath with degreaser and will hit it with the steamer. She’s marking slightly, only a couple drips over...

Just seen Phil suggested drop arm 🤦‍♂️

You checked your drip arm ball joint mate? You’ve got sumos on now haven’t you? For all my 90s woes if drove perfectly straight. I got in my Dmax last night and it felt like a Bentley 😂😂😂😂

Not to hijack mate but I’ve a similar thing on my D1. It’s like you have to keep hold of wheel at all times. It’ll do it worse when you come out of a dip or pothole. Like you say, feels like it gets blown by gust of wind and makes my arse cheeks clench 😂

Have you driven defenders before? Tried and proven, yes and a way cooler vehicle than the hilux but I’d still take the hilux! Way comfier, decent aircon, stereo etc. You’ll also likely get more for your money.

Well I took her out on a good run down the lanes. Needle didn’t go past 90ish on temp and the engine felt really good and strong! I have a leak, drips off back of sump. Nothing huge. I can’t tell if it’s coming out bellhousing plug or not so I’ve bought a couple plugs to rule it out. I...

Reckon she’s gone through the fork? When it rains it pours! Chin up mate, one can’t simply have a drink propper Landy without throwing money at it and tools across the shop.

Just had to order a new part! Broke off at hand tight 😳

She’s looking quite well. Brakes aren’t great - going to do another bleed. Fair bit of smoke under load when I took her down the road. Is this fairly normal if it hasn’t been run for a while? I’ve had it idling but not had it under boost for a good month. @Hicap phill? Not sure what I want to...

Looks less weedy with propper tyres!

Been doing little bits here n there as not getting solid time to fettle. Mainly freshening front end up. Really satisfying but annoying stop starting: New rocker cover gasket Front bearings Front stub axle seals and one new stub New n/s gkn drive shaft and cv New N/s swivel oil Front discs...

No idea mate!!
