You've done yours with the actual truck cab unlike this

Fine I'll change my post :p


I have mirrors for visibility ;) better than a van anyway and I has cut the sides long enough to get those mini sliding windows in there ;)


PM inbound
 
i just drive on anyway lol,

its a nice cab back,i would go with series 2 at a guess..the cab is so light now,i may fit some net curtains for the summer....
 
I did some measuring earlier ;) 57 7/8th is the width of the roof on a 110 van, which is the same as a series

Only difference being length and in your case for the series to fender mounting the bulkhead bolts are somewhere different for some of them but you don't need all :) I sold my truck cab roof for £140 IIRC
 
yep,i have only 2 bolts that line up,the ones by the b.pillar.

i have made some spacers and will be fitting them this weekend,
also the seat belts are an issue,I may have to post pics up of that,i have a plan that is good i hope.

The other issues are the door seals.the series truck cab back has a rivet on seal and the metal strip angle the seal fits too has a 90 on it...

so i cold formed the lip flaton the series cab section to line up with the defender strips giving a good strong round edge to push the defender door seal onto.I just got a lump and tap hammer then formed the edge overbetween the two hammers ,seems ok ...no cracks...

Thats it really the door seals seem a good fit

all the roof bolts lined up fine and thats a defender roof and series cab back...
 
right up and running..

front nato hitch to fit next weekend.I can now sort the rear tub cageing which i just have to pick up from the yard,im hopeing to use the hoop holes for the cage mountings.

cage and hitch by end of next weekend then i can respray..I dont have time to make the tray back yet so going with the existing tub,

tell yer wot tho took fekin ages ,the volvo seats are electric so to fit them i had to remove the drive for the tilt and calibrate two in each seat,took all day ffs...i aint even got em wired in just in .....:mad::mad::mad::mad:


...so now im drinkin fuk it....it goes to work tomoz for the next 10 days lol..:beer2::D

best bit is the sheep need a 5 hrs shift so i can spend the othe 3 hrs in farm workshop doing under body stripo n seal...i take the diff guards off every year for clean out.

when its caged out i will post pics..tho it was nice to park in supermarket with a 90 pick up ..i could atchually see what i was reversing into lol..:D
 
well then the fekin hurdles dont fit in so it has to be dropside pick up....:rolleyes:

stil its just body work now as the rest of the jobs are done.:):)

still i had ten hurdles there with no issues other than i will probably strap them on next time ...:eek:
