Cut a slot out the old race then tapped it in no bother 👍 New discs are about twice as thick as what we’re about 20 year old discs with about 80k on them - pistons got moved back in so far I didn’t even need to top the fluid up when I replaced the solid brake line between flexi and caliper 🙂

Doing the front wheel bearings and brakes on my 96 def 90, however when I took the offside apart I took the first nut, then lock washer, then second nut and then there was no thick washer? There was very minimal play and it wasn’t noisy but just wondering if anyone knew how this could have...

Really did surprise me aswell, it’s an original red wiper relay from 1996 🤷‍♂️

wrapped the relay in a fair few layers of foil tape and i can now put the mic next to the relay and it doesnt trigger them. bosh!

I’ve ordered some foil tape and am going to wrap the relay, hopefully that solves it. Mic is a sealed unit so no way of knowing if it’s dodgy until I can try and chat to someone make sure it works. I’m fairly confident it’s the mic as like I said if I take the mic out of line of sight of the...

just wired in a thunderpole t-600, mounted on the slant under the dash above the fuse box (bad idea now) and below the radio. when i transmit it sets off the wipers, i wrapped tinfoil around the coax cable and that didnt change anything. wrapped the fuse box cover in tinfoil and that stopped...

i can push the selector lever on the box across by hand an theres an audible click and the light on the dash comes on

Crawled underneath just now and established the linkage is there, I can push the selector by hand, and I hear an audible click and the light comes on so I had someone move the lever whilst watching the linkage and the bushes that it pivots on have so much play that it just moves the whole...

its even better when the stain has a red tinge to it if you get what i mean ;)

i personally would make sure you've got breakdown cover and just keep driving the thing until whatever is whining quits whining and gives up, pretty easy to identify what it is then. then get an exchange unit from ashcroft

cheers for that mate, will drop a message if needed

recently got 265/75r16 cooper stt pro's on challenger 16x7 -25 offset rims, they protrude around 30 - 40mm maybe more at a guess but thats partially due to all the arches being dented inwards (ex dairy farm defender, cows headbutting the arches etc) so would expect they would sit nicely under...

just below m4, wilts - south glos border is the best way to describe where i am without saying exactly

weather's been awful so havent had a chance to jack it up but it came from the family farm and im pretty certain the lock hasnt been used for a fairly long time so may try driving around whilst trying to engage it then testing it. i've got a decent idea of where this linkage should be from the...

Thanks a lot for the help and suggestions, will jack it up and test it later today, where should I be looking for the linkage exactly?

Light doesn’t come on, lever moves freely side to side with no mechanical feel

Driving up a Steep incline the front wheels spin only, try to reverse up the back wheels spin.

Hi, recently got a defender but the centre difflock does nothing, when I push the lever across it moves freely with no feel of anything happening and it definitely doesn’t engage. Wondering if the linkage has dropped off or something but not sure the best way to have a look as don’t really know...

very nice job, did you ever get anywhere with making these? would possibly be interested in one, one day
