Just a wee video of me having some fun at Parkwood 4x4, near Leeds this weekend. Buggered the alternator up though and mysteriously have no oil left in there... Oops. YouTube - Defender 90 TD5 at Parkwood 4x4, Tong

There's nowt at all wrong with a bit of innuendo to get you through Friday afternoon! :D

I know, we're a right let-down! I'm planning on modifying mine though as there's so much dead space in the back. I'm basically going to build in a drawer which sits in the load area, between the arches. This will be about 700mm deep, open the full depth and take plenty of weight. It'll double...

In pic 2 there is "Cocos Plate" - erm, I don't think you're allowed to say that any more. :rolleyes:

When it's dirty, you can't get it dirty again... But when it's clean, you get to cake it up properly - makes a play day far more rewarding! Here's what I do: Take it to the imigrunt wash on a Saturday morning, make them sweat cleaning it, then drive round for a bit when it looks all shiny and...

Sean, I was going to suggest turning them the right way! :D

"If you go down to the woods today... Ba-dum-da-dum-da-dum....... SUPRISE!"

It's a Defender - welcome to the club! You'll always have something which clunks! Could be the prop shaft UJs or the A Frame ball joint

I'm in YorkshireLand so will have to find someone a little more local!

Cheers Discomania... Should it be GL4 in the transfer box? I remember a while back the Landy garage near me sent me away with some TRX stuff (not sure what it was) but then a guy in the garage I used to use told me it was the wrong stuff and that's why the transfer box died... (admitedly it was...

Hi All, After plenty of reading, I'm under the impression I need EP90 GL4 oil for the diffs on my TD5 90, and not GL5. Is this correct? Any local motor shops and Land Rover places only seem to stock GL5... I've found a few on t'internet in 5L, does anyone know if they will be suitable and if...

Yeah, it should be kicking out about 200bhp but would be interested to get it measured properly. It goes like **** off a stick though, which is good for me but not so good for tyres... :D

No, it had these wheels on without a lift when I got it. It had some Goodyear Wrangler road tyres on it, then I stuck some BF Goodrich All Terrains on it and it was fine. Then I lifted it! The wheels are Range Rover wheels but then need hub adapters cos they're a different fitting to the...

yup :)

Yeah, it'll do that on the flat under it's own steam... I did have just over 110 down a hill once, but that can't have been good for it! :D

I haven't had a chance to test them off road yet cos my front prop needs some new UJs and I don't fancy anything breaking while I'm in the mud! :rolleyes: As far as road use goes (it's my main vehicle), they seem fantastic. Very little extra noise compared to the BFG ATs, and they are...

Just thought I'd stick a few pictures up of my new tyres... They're Cooper Discoverer STT 275/65R18

*tee-hee-hee*

I'm a bloke so couldn't be arsed with the small print! :D The website still accepted my vote though, where is the "sorry dumbass, read the small print, we're closed" message!?

I took one look at the standard jack when I was stuck in some mud, laughed, and put it back in it's bag. Got a hi-lift and have never looked back. Yes, they will try and kill you but they're fantastic bits of kit if you use common sense! Chock the wheels, hand brake on, leave it in gear and with...
