If you do, how do you ensure it or parts of it aren’t swiped?

Great, cheers guys!

I’ve got the pictured washer jets fitted for the front screen. They currently spray onto the lightbar, ideally, I’d like them to spray onto the screen. Are these jets adjustable? I tried with a pin but it just bent. I intend to try again with a small drill bit in the hope they move before the...

I think the tool you mention grabs underneath a recess in the cover - that’s if your covers have nut shaped flats on the end of them? My covers are fully domed with smooth sides so no undercut/recess anywhere for a tool to grab onto.

I’ve done a search but it didn’t answer my question on these: https://www.island-4x4.co.uk/wheel-cover-90110-27mm-steel-nuts-p-27593.html As you can see they’re domed on the exterior and shaped to fit the nut flats on the interior. They push on the full depth of the nut and they’re a tight’ish...

There is no comparison. The MUD one is a simple plastic ‘moulding’, by that I don’t know if it’s even injection moulded. I imagine it will be flimsy and look cheap. The Raptor console however is a solid, well engineered and well made piece of kit, made in England with fantastic customer support...

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. The winching will be mainly used for recovering tree trunks for logging. I’ll make do with some large split logs for now.

Thanks for all the suggestions. I’m not keen on plastic ones, would be a bit worried about them in the depths of Winter. I had seen some folding ally ones but can’t find a pic now. A lot of the good 4x4 stuff seems to be in the USA but not over here :( I could make the ally ones but the cost of...

Halfords? I’d have to be desperate to look in there. I’m after something robust, that digs in rather than slides along and folds down for storage.

I’m looking for (ideally) folding wheel chocks which I can use whilst winching. Can anyone suggest where I can find a set, otherwise I may have to make them which I haven't really got the time for. Cheers all.

Thanks for all your replies guys. I thought if I gave them a detailed, line by line breakdown of parts purchased and cost of those parts then they would insure me for that total. I don’t quite get why they will not insure me for that amount, otherwise, what’s the point of me having insurance?

Has anyone had to undergo the following to ensure your Land Rover is adequately covered for value on insurance?: ‘We are willing to reassess the valuation however, we would require an independent engineer’s evaluation from a member of the Institute of Automotive Engineers and Assessors (local...

As an aside, can you tell me how you piped up your boost gauge, where you tapped into etc? I think I’ve naused mine up!

Days like these...I don’t get it. Yesterday went well working on the bitch. Everything I wanted to get done got done, it all went fairly smoothly. I like days like these. And then, today. WTF? The headliner went in yesterday so I thought I’d fit the rear view mirror. M4 threaded rivnuts were...

Looking good Mick. The paint quality looks fantastic!

I need two Sankey narrow track trailer wheels collecting from Hertford and dropping down to Gloucestershire if anyone can help please.

Big thank you to ‘dag019’ for his generosity in collecting and delivering the trailer today, many thanks mate. Very much appreciated. Loved your Defender!

Of course, wasn't thinking although no Landy lives there. Thanks anyway.

Thanks Dave. Replied to you...now we need Mr Cowasaki to reply!
