Hi guys as I am moving away from home in a few months and taking my defender with me my father now needs another car to tow the horse box with. He very much wants a disco 2 as he has owed a disco 1 in the past and can’t stand the rattling ride of another defender. He is unsure how an auto would...

hi i was wondering if anyone had a single wolf wheel spare preferably a tubed wheel to complete my set especial if it is in the midlands or south wales. thanks alot!

Thanks very much for that info I certainly wasn’t going to run it without an inter tube I’ll look into tires and what manufactures say thanks a lot!

hey guys I’m looking at purchasing a set of wolfs at a very good price always wanted them so seem like a good deal they are the tubed version however. Do I need to run specific tires to fit tubes or can I just fit what ever I want with a tube inside? Thanks in advance!

I’m not sure where it’s supposed to come up but I brought mine along the axel and up into the light box in the rear corner doesn’t really seem to be a proper place for it to go

Thanks looks like the previous owner only did 2 breathers so I’ll find the final one and extend it

hi guys I have just installed an extended breather on the rear axel a previous owner has extended some in the past so ther are two under the bonnet one for the front axel i assume the other is for the transfer or gear box do they have separate breathers or is there just 1 for both?

Today I was very lucky when a defender 110 tuned up at work and I had a badger at his winch which would be similar to what i spoils be getting at he has infact mounted it upside down behind the bumper with the winch bracket attached to the front cross member see photos attached after looking at...

I had a look myself and I’m going to take a look tomorrow thinktit might be possible to but on a plae between the front cross member and the bumper with the fair lead on the bumper and the winch on the plate which I can attach to the front cross member

Yep I’ve very tempted by the warrior as for the rope I might get a cable first and then get a rope later. As for the bumper I’m not a fan of the tubular stuff or any of the like I much prefer the ones which look like a standard hence why I was planning on making my own I’ll take a look but no...

Yes I’m plenty familiar with winch practice and snach blocks as for the bumper I’m going to fabricate my own from the existing bumper and set the winch back into the grill I plan on reinforcing both attachment points by welding plated so I can bolt sideways though the chassis rails and I...

Thanks the warrior looks good unfortunately I don’t have that sort of spare cash as much as I’d love it.

It’s a recreational use aim to use it at pay and plays and when my mates disco sport gets bogged green laning as usual. I have no problems with maintenance (I wouldn’t have bought a defender if I did ) I’m not sure on the wire or dyneema so If you have any advice about that id like some

hey guys I’m looking at purchasing a winch for my 300tdi defender 90 and was wondering if anyone had any recommendations as to how much pulling power and brands at the moment I’m looking at rhino winches. Thanks I’m advance

Yep I do do it by Briming the tank because the guage is bad and the speedo does read 5mph fast so maybe that has slightly inflated the mileage

I wonder if it may have something to do with the gear ratios. I’m not sure but the previous owner said that it had RRC differentials in the axels I wonder if the 2.5na (I’m assuming that was what was in it before the 200 tdi) had lower diff ratios

Yes it was about 1.30 yesterday so when I saw that you can be sure I whent straight there.

Certainly faster than I’m going I sit at 55-60 mph

Yep I certainly don’t drive fast I do use BFG AT KO 1s at 30 psi

Hello I’m the owner of a defender 90 300tdi with 262,000 miles. Today I decided that I would see what mpg I get I did 121 miles 60% country roads 30% dual carriageway or motorway and the final 10% in town I used just 14 litres of fuel giving me an MPG of 37. It was the first time I had worked...
