That's because the page wouldn't load and I thought it hadn't posted. It obviously had.

Anyone know if there is a wheel clamp which will fit a 265 75 16 with alloy wheel? All seem too small. Cheers

Hi y'all My Defender is fitted with 265 75 16 tyres on alloys. I am having great difficulty in finding one that big. Has anyone got any idea if there are any that size? Thanks

Thanks but I think I will find a way of dipping it or something. I can't leave it to hope and chance.

What if it has all leaked out already? If I don't touch it then it will cause serious damage surely?

Yeah that's the point. I don't know what's left in there and that's the issue.

My 1997 Defender has the later swivels with no level or drain plugs. The top plug had a bit of grease on it but I have no way of knowing if there's enough lubricant in the housing.. My question is - if I push in some more one shot grease can it be overfilled affecting the oil seal? Any...

I am still having issues with trying to ascertain if my side windows are factory fitted or not as my 300tdi 90 was originally a hard top and not a CSW, but was modified a couple of years after production. The issue I have is, I want to but some internal window surrounds but I don't have any...

I am looking to buy an interior rear window surround set for my Defender 90 1997 300tdi. Anyone know if the Terrafirma or Bearmach ones are superior to the other after market ones for instance? The other issue I have is the vehicle was originally a hard top which was converted to a County...

I have thought about this and I think I will wire the roof lights up to a separate switch, the feed of which taken from from the sidelights and just use them during the day. When the headlights are switched on I can then switch the DRLs off at will as they are quite bright at night and I think...

Yes I do remember seeing cars that dimmed the headlights like that but I didn't realise they worked from oil pressure. These regulations on lights are all so flipping confusing. I remember having issues with one MOT station where it was failed because the front indicators were slightly...

Oh dear. Thanks for that I didn't realise. I might just have to disconnect them for the time being and sort that out later as my MOT comes up shortly. Thanks again. Edit: Just thought - they will actually be used in conjunction with the sidelights as an extra set to boost the illumination...

Thanks for that very in depth response. Terrific!

Great. Thanks for that. Will send a pic. My existing lights were replaced with LEDs some time ago.

I just bought four LED running lights for my 300tdi defender which are rated at 5w each (20w). I want them to come on with the sidelights. Anyone know the best take off point - direct from the main fuse box or connect to the sidelight wire from switch and fit an in-line fuse? Also what size...

Thanks for all the replies.

Just changed the oil in my transfer box in my 300tdi 1997 Defender 90. I bought Millers EP 75w/80 GL5 mineral (API 4/5). I bought the oil years ago and only just had the time to change it along with all the other oils. Looking at the manual it states 75w/90. I realise it's a bit thinner but...

Thanks for that. There are so many differing views on this subject so sorting through the general consensus and I decided on Westway MTF94 GL-4 so I'll stick with that for the time being. I am sure someone will have an opinion on that make too, but some say with expensive oils you are just...

Great. Thanks for that.
