Thanks for the reply... Tools, work space, following basic instruction and a bit of hard work shouldn't be an issue, but the lift might be (but there are a few places local that offer lift hire by the hour... so that could look at that). Most of the my driving is going to be long distance, with...

Hi My 90 came with a 2" lift terrafirma kit already on it... Nothing wrong with it (in fact looks pretty new) but looking to take back to stock as I really don't need for the type of use it will be getting and want to improve the ride/handling on long road journeys to Scotland/ alps, etc.. Any...

No unfortunately not

Thanks... looks like I've got my Sunday worked out now ;)

Thanks James... are these easy to check and sort out? Happy to turn my hand to most things... Have tools and Haynes manual but rather leave it to the professionals if there's a chance of buggering it up!!

Thanks Gazman... certainly worth a try :)

OK... so when I brought my 90 TD5 a few months back, one of the things listed as recently being done was a replacement fuel pump (which would seem true given he hadn't connected the fuel lines back properly, which I discovered 3 weeks into owning it when I ****ed a tank full of fuel out down the...

Finally changed the cheap want’a’be momo steering wheel the guy I got it from had put on and replaced with a nice stock TD5 one! Indicators now cancel as they should, it’s on straight and handles soooo much better. Happy days

Thanks Hippo

Hi Have a TD5 90 that I picked up for me and my 12year daughter to work on. We already done loads of work on it, but still looking for the odd bits here and there... from adding something it needs to replacing something because its knackered or just not to our taste. So my question is: Is the...

Thanks again for the advice (learning a lot about how tyres are sized already)... I really like the sound of the 255/85s but struggling to find any that are ATs. BFG do a MT as does TOYO but not really suited to the driving I'm going to be doing which is more long distance road to the Alps/...

Thanks... you're most likely right about the 275s and something else learned on the start of my 90 ownership. I do have the spacers on and currently extended arches (although again I'm thinking of changing the arches back to stock due to personal taste) so not a problem now, but something to...

Hi... So just looking for others views/ advice on what to do with my TD5 90's wheel/ tyre set-up. Brought it with a set of 16" freestyles (very poorly painted) and a set of Kumho MTs 265/75R16 already on. Nothing wrong with the wheels (other than the s**t paint job) or the tyres, just not my...

Thanks Marjon... looked at the Rx8 seats but read somewhere they don’t align directly behind the steering wheel, which kind of made me think more about aftermarket ones without the exmoor price tag!! @blue beasty... pretty pretty please... what sort cake do you like?

My 90 (2000 TD5)

Thanks for the advice... new to the site so still learning where best to post different things.

She loves it and demands to be picked up from school in it and gets most upset when other Defender drives don’t wave back!! It’s nowhere near finished and things like the two bar, 2” lift, etc where already on. Always open to others thoughts/ suggestions.

Kiki... is my 12 year old daughter who is helping me do it up (father and daughter project)

thanks... it is very secure.
