Well done! They look nice, what was in there before? Shame about the headroom but at least you will be in the driver's seat!! :p

Always here to help and be helped!

Agreed, for the chassis we will strip it back with a blast, repair what needs doing and get it dipped. Think you are right, this needs to be done.

Fantastic, thanks for the info. We have gone and bought the panels from YRM and will check out the coatings once we have managed the repair.

We sure will. We hope to be able to bring new videos to the YouTube channel every two weeks. This is dependent on how often we can work on the project with the day jobs and family commitments. Pretty regular updates are on Instagram too if you guys wanted to subscribe. Thanks for all the...

Well done finding it. We most definitely will be doing more videos. 2 so far (glad you liked the tent sketch). We are aiming for a video every 2 weeks (as we still have day jobs).

Hi @gstuart We are in the West Kent area near 7oaks. About 10 minutes deeper into the endless fields from Gigglepin and Juice Motors. Please do check out our YouTube page...it’s good for a chuckle if nothing else; https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCpfROxR6EVXc_-BShYeA0Lg All the best and...

Ahhh Yes, agreed it was likely warped looking at that. The plan is to get her remapped when she is back together, going for a better flow path than the cast log. Ultimately though we won't be pushing it hard as we want her to be reliable more than anything. I have always wanted to put a mani...

in addition to this and all the messages about sound proofing, the Defender has a slightly lower 5th gear ratio to the Disco. You can swap this over, this could help drop the Revs a little up at higher speeds on the motorway.

Hi and thank you! Tent does the job for now!

it’s the R380 with the TD5, I believe the 5th gear ratio is different on the disco to the defender so we will be getting this swapped out as we would prefer it to be a bit higher In 5th

lol Hi ! Actually the manifold isn’t warped, just took it off as we will be making a custom one ... gives me a head start. Like the look of your Defender! Gives us some ideas

Hi All, We have gone ahead and bought LH and RH inner panels to cut and shut the rot out of our bulkhead: Cost is ~£60 for both vs £1600 for a new bulkhead. What are people’s views on doing this? My worry is keeping everything straight as the doors have to bolt back on to these. I suppose...

Thanks RangeRoller! We will certainly keep the pics flowing!

Thanks for the heads up!

Thanks for the warm welcome! Will be a tidy up mainly but where we can a strengthening....engine will for now be a time job, along with a custom mani and intake. This is intended as our workhorse so it needs to be reliable.

Hi All, Alex and I wanted to share our progress with our Defender 110 TD5 rebuild with you in case it is useful / you are interested. Before the project started, mechanically (engine, brakes, gearbox, suspension) was all good. However we were aware that there was rust issues with at least the...

We should fit in just fine then

Hi All, We (Alex and Lewis) are currently stripping, to rebuild our Defender 110 TD5. We are based in Kent and this is our first Big Defender project! We wanted to say hi and get involved with all you Land Rover veterans out there! We hope we can help here and there as well as lean on you when...
