FYI stolen nearside wheel eyebrows/spats/arches off my 110 tdci whilst on my drive overnight. Sheffield /Rotherham area. Done by just popping the plastic rivets out. If you do one thing today, go and stick a couple of m6 bolts and shear nuts in yours, they're flipping expensive to replace...

Did mine myself after spending an eternity researching who and where, reading endless posts about "he said this but did that etc". Did it myself, mate has a hot washer so spent ages cleaning and drying, up on the ramps, used dinitrol. It's all in the prep. Needs a touch up now, but very happy...

I've had the Bolt on Bits ones in the last three defenders, and they've been superb. On the 200 I had to make connectors, but on the td5 and tdci the connectors just slotted in (make sure you get the right pin in the right position for stop/tail). Fitted the adjustable flasher to bring the...

Similar to mine, I had two faults: 1. Chafed loom, through the earth 2. Disconnected earth on the loom as it exits the chassis at the front (two wires come off the loom at that point and connect to the chassis with bullet connectors). Good luck.

I got some thin see through PVC (the flexible stuff, got mine from Dunelm Mill) and made a curtain to go on the dog guard down to the bulkhead in my 90. Made a noticeable difference to cab temperature. Will be soon same to the 110, as well as foam and carpet board for the sides.

Bought one, and the extractor jobby, fitted it in Halfords car park, great radio, pairs with phone and get hands free calling. Very happy, thanks for the recommendation!

Is the inbuilt microphone on that Sony any good for calls or have you rigged in the external mic? Replacing my LR radio this weekend and the Sony is half price in halfords!

If wolf doesn't take this then I'll have it please!

Same happened on mine mate, you're not alone. I ended up taking the manifold off, realised it wasn't flat (against the engine block) so fitted a refurb one that had been de-webbed, baked in a kiln for a few days and skimmed. Was more expensive but it was that or try and go through the problems...

The chicken died a week after fitting... I think it must have come in a blue box...

Took mine out last year, could get the grinder onto most of them, was a bit brutal but got them out in the end. Replaced it with aluminium frame and ali floor, used spire clips and stainless countersunk bolts. End result is a removable floor in my td5 90 - I thanked the stars when I needed to...

No they are not sided. Where are you, someone may have in ether can lend/sell you.

Yes. I changed one with less pitting than that, just didn't want it to grate through the big oil seal and have to do the job again.

In that case...do you need a tea boy!! Would love to watch and learn! :-)

Ah ok, I've never done one before, so was going to offer to help and learn at the same time!! ;-). Handy with my spanners but never done that job. If you want a hand on that basis then I'll help!

Do you know how to do it and want a spare pair of hands? Or do you want somebody to take the lead on it and you help them? Own tools and garage?

What Wolf said. Jet boil is fantastic for quick brews and convenience, amazing bit of kit. It's only limitation is availability of gas. I also have a primus multifuel, runs on gas, kero, petrol and diesel with different nozzles. A lot better for sustained trips, it does require getting used to...

I don't think it's Deepcut Barracks you want but the RLC Museum which is located just outside. I believe they have an archives section, or at lest a few other official contacts who may be able to help. I may however be completely wrong...! ;-) Google RLC Museum. Let us know how you get on. Good...

hi Rob, the following might help (they help me) Çàï÷àñòè äëÿ Land Rover click on "In English" then access the online parts catalogue. I'm sure other catalogues are available but it's been fine for me. Click on the "Defender 2007 -" on the left and navigate to "B Axles and Suspension" and...

crikey I leave the computer for a few hours to go to work, come back and I'm accused of being a smuggler :eek: :D Nice to speak to you all! I may have needs for the collective wisdom of internet forum folk to help me fix my... wait for it... fuel sender/gauge - spent 2 days on it so far and...
