    Changing the gear ratios in Defender transfer box

    Hi All, I am currently looking into changing the gearing in my transfer box to this gear set https://www.ashcroft-transmissions.co.uk/lt230-ratio-changes/1-222-gear-set.html which is the same used in TD5 Discovery. Is this something that can be done without removing the box if I had access to a...

    Vibration through steering wheel

    Good news, the wheels just needed balancing. One of the front wheels had none on at all!

    'Big Blue' Td5 Double Cab

    What size did you go for out of interest? Planning on replacing mine with KO2 and probably going to go with 265/75/16.

    Vibration through steering wheel

    Hi All, I have put the 90 into daily commuting use, however I have noticed a really annoying vibration/wobble through the steering wheel between 60-70 mph. I have checked the basics to ensure nothing is loose and it all looks ok, could it be the steering damper on the way out? I am also going...

    Green Laning in Cambridgshire

    Does anyone know of some good Green Lanes around Cambridgshire? I am interested in doing some exploring in my 90 locally before I do any longer trips. Thanks

    Slickshift Sucessfully Fitted

    I would not go as far to say that it makes it modern to drive, just more useable. Long journeys would give me lots of grief on my elbow.

    Slickshift Sucessfully Fitted

    Hi All, Just a quick post, today I fitted a Slickshift kit to my 90 and I have to say that I am very impressed. The throw on the shift is significantly reduced which makes for a much nicer drive. The kit is nice and easy to install with some basic tools and YouTube. I wish I had done it sooner!

    AT or MT?

    Thanks for the responses, sold on MT, I live in Cambridgshire, there is no rocky ground around here, but it does get very muddy. As for road noise, if I was fussed about this I would not have bought a Defender, it will just be a different noise! Now which MT? I here ther is a new BFG out soon...

    AT or MT?

    Hi All, The tyres on my 90 are still the originals and although the tread is fine they are starting to perish, so the question is what to go for next? I have already decided to go up to 265/75, mainly because they look better and they don’t seem to effect performance on or off road much, but I...

    Clutch noise

    Hi All, My Defender TD5 has started making a noise when I engage the clutch and backing it out of the garage, as soon as I have done this it stops. It only seems to happen after it has been standing over night. The noise is a kind of whining and only happens when I am lifting my foot off the...

    Hi Everyone

    Hi All, I have been a long time lurker on here, but at the end of last year I came across a Defender and had to snap it up. It’s a 2006 TD5 CSW, 2 owners and with just 50k on the clock with LR history to back it up. Although mechanical it’s been looked after, the Defender needed some cosmetic...
