Currently wrestling with a replacement hinge set on my 110 TD5 CSW. Having changed the defunct front door hinges without too much trauma - well drilling out seized bolt / nuts on each lower hinge - so normal routine by Defender standards I understand.) The Rear near side passenger door lower...

I picked up a pair of rear springs for a 110 CSW from a chap on ebay that sells 'new take offs' £55 inc' delivery. A chap on here suggested new take offs. They arrived spotless, as a pair, with the correct colour code stripes. When I ordered them, I gave the vehicle details - age, 110 CSW 5...

wow, thanks guys. Really appreciate the comments. I dont have a compressor and no means of getting one which I could get close to the defender (workshops at the rear of my terrace house and car is at the front. I would need a 50 meter air line and that would be over the pavement... I can see...

which makita model is it ?

Am looking at investing in an entry level 1/2 drive Impact wrench (cordless). never owned or used one and wondered if any of you guys had a view on the matter or a recommendation . I cant afford the usual brands like makita or dewalt as these are priced > £150 for a bare gun no battery etc So...

That was what I experienced when I checked the Terrafirma price for the adjustable shock units, shox being plural as I needed 2 off.. :-)

By way of an update. I replaced the rear coils for standard 'New take Offs' (£50 delivered), fitted the adjustable dampers as recommended (c£120 inc Del') and new spring seats as the originals were toast. So far Ive only run a couple of hundred miles on roads including a bit of motorway, Got the...

OK so 2k miles not 2000K ! well spotted. I like the idea of the adjustable dampers - had them on a motor years ago just not a 4x4. Standard springs makes sense as they have coped well in its former life just well rusted now and 'soft' on the near side. Bushes all need a going over as I work...

Looking on the Terrafirma website ref TF173 - the only adjustable dampers I can see for 110 standard height are £96 each .... unless Im looking at a price for a pair ? ' Stage 4 adjustable shocks' ? Ignore that, Ive just found the same thing for £65 on line ! cheers.

Newbie here - so, the rear shox are about toast along with the springs on my TD5 110 2002 defender. Looking for some recommendations with the following in mind:- I do not plan on serious axel twisting mud plugging off roading in the foreseeable future. I run a few green lanes and farm tracks...

Tried the guys yesterday but the only do the bottom edge channel. Am going to search more today

Looking for some advice on the plan of action for the pair of doors . Both are rusted at the lower edge and Ive seen diy weld patches to repair. However both are also rotted at the trailing lower corner of the windows. Is there a ready made patch for these areas also ? I know replacement doors...

its going to have fun if it cant do hills round me in the Peak District ... it does have some interesting ventilation development in the passenger footwell - just so I know the water depth !

finding my way around the forum. picture added to first post.

Newbie here, so no shouting at me. Drove my first proper landrover LWB in Wales as a ranger in 1988 full of school kids and me still a teenager ! Always wanted one since. My first was a RR Classic 3.5 V8 LPG converted. Loved it until I stuffed it up the rear end of trailer being towed with no...
