Having just read your post again, first defender, you want/need to know if you and the family like defenders first, if not its a lot to shell out to lose on a forecourt or in mods that won't appreciate the resel price. They take some patience and understanding when they **** on your right leg...

Any defender is easy to nick, even post 02, post 02 maybe more desirable to the threiving scum. I've had a 200tdi for a few yrs, noisy but it was basic and motorway runs not a pleasure but it was bullet proof. A 55 TD5, nice to drive if a little less bottom end pull, always felt fragile and...

Just for info, fitted std factory puma springs and ditched the early lop sided ones as fitted by former keeper, drivers side was silly hi. It's now quieter than my zafira even at 70 having done no other mods. So I put it down to a silly prop angle. Cheers

My drivers door will not power my lghts, any ideas please? Just had the factory alarm bypassed and another fitted and wondered if this was the cause as the earth point does still work for the alarm. Thanks in advance

Iv got a full set of good early ones, prob is I am putting all new late type doors, only the nearside doors I have new type cards for, until I upgrade interior I would rather keep original door cards. If I go to xs spec at a later time I may go for the new type cards. Thanks for all the help

Thanks for the intellectual responses. They are things I will look at. Comparing both vehicles which have a similar level of sound proofing, based on the refurbed on being quieter I'm going to go down the replace and renew of mechanicals I.e shafts uj's engine mount and see what they will do...

Thanks for the response, iv had a 200tdi 90 td5 110 and this 300tdi csw. Not overly fussed with the noise, it's just the comparable difference in the two very similar vehicles. Td5 was obviously the quietest but never felt as faithful.

You being the dick expert? Il stick to my quiet 110 ta. I know a mate who knows a mate who might sort you out if your struggling for fresh dick!!

Making the best better!!!

Im sure it's been discussed before but again I'm struggling to find it. Been in two 300tdis within the past few weeks, one a 95 with 50k and the one I bought, 97 with 80k. Mine seems a bit rougher and noisier and not as smooth. Mine has more in the way of carpets. Are there any...

Iv done a search but can't find any answers. Hopefully someone will know Will the early door cards fit the later type doors? Will the keep fit window winders from the same early doors fit the late style doors? Thanks

Just wondereing if i could buy it anywhere in S/Yorks filtered and de-watered. I know i could get and filter my own but i haven't got the time patience or space. Iv got around 150l of used stuff thats been sat waiting to be filtered for over 6 months but no time to do it. I have someone...

I have seen it done on a toyota with some black plastic/vinyl cut to shape and the edges tidy'd up with some plastic trim. it then bends to the curviature To fit the Defender arches you would need to remove the existing spats and fix to body, This would leave some big Santana style arches...

Hi folks. Tranny box is n the rag. Its leakng ut of the intermediate shaft oil seal. I know this is a simple O ring, and from what i can see this s secured with one nut from the rear. Question is can i change the ring without taking the whole box to bits just by undoing the nut, tapping it...

I can get a cheap pair. But even new they are cheaper than the exmoor ones for child seats

Seen it mate but nothing on the std Puma stuff. Exmoor is the final option due to cost and appearence. cheers

Hi guys. Iv searched till im blue in the face but all pics i have seen pint to it being not a straight fit. Or not at all. But i have read a post on a forum from someone saying they have done it with no further details. Can it be done? Is it straight forward? I think the puma wheel...

I was never disputing that mate. I just feel that the attitude of certain people is not appropriate. Various people moan about newcomers using wrong paths and that they are lacking in etiquette, but how are they to learn this without forthcoming knowledgeable peers. I feel that your...

Is there any need for attitudes like this. You are stereotyping a lad with a 4x4 as someone who is going to tear up the countryside. the same stereotypical view that you get from other members of the public and which you strongly fight and dis-agree with. Thanks to people like you i have...

I have not found one with the wheel box yet. Only for a series. Even then tho they are spot welded to the rear bulkhead and probably the crossbars under he floor.
