Trying to avoid creating a new thread, so I'm stealing this one. I'm currently on 16x7 +8mmOS Modulars on 235/85R16. I'm not a big fan of them aesthetically. Next month I'm upgrading to 255/85R16 tyres. I'm in the doubt of keeping my Modulars or change for Wolf wheels. Are they a worthy change...

Anyone?

Hi all, Another suspension thread.... (don't get me started on tyres) My 300TDI 90 currently has the following setup: Front - NRC9448/9 springs (normal 90 rear, HD 90 front) with RBC100111 Disco2 rubber isolator cones Rear - RKB101240/30 HD progressive springs with ANR2938 spring isolators...

Might consider those sometime in the future, thanks. I'll keep my clamp ons for now

Hi all, I've had the normal clamp on diff guards for 3 years. The front one has taken some hard hits and did it's job. The rear one is virtually new... Anyway, I've had some problems with them, the front one fell off one time, and it's quite hard to clean the mud inside. I was considering to...

I have everything I need at work, except an extra bolt...

bump...

I'm not a big fan of Camel "replicas". But on the contrary, I love Camel inspired vehicles. I'm trying to do that to my 300tdi 90. I think the basics are: - Brownchurch or similar rack - Safety Devices L142 cage - Mantec steering guard - Classic looking winch bumper and bull bar - steel wheels...

Sounds good Helicoil seems to be a little safer there, as it has a smaller insert diameter. Can anyone confirm that the original thread is M12x1.5? Thanks

Hi all, My transfer box (300tdi) has stripped drain plug threads. I noticed that while tightening the plug on the last oil change. It got tight enough to seal and stay in place, but I'll have to change the oil soon and need a solution. First of all, I'm assuming the original thread is a...

Any ideas?

Hi all, I need load space that my 90 lacks (to the point that I was considering a LWB Patrol Y61...until I got inside one). 110s here are crazy expensive, so I'll get a roof rack for mine. I want a classic look and I'm putting together sort of a Camel Trophy inspired build. Brownchurch racks...

Other than the common 265/76r16 you have the 255/85r16, probably the perfect size for the Defender

The usual clamp-on ones are much worse on the mud caking department. So much that I'll be swapping mine for a pair of wrap rounds like those of the OP

Replaced the front springs, well under 2h which is a new record for me. Installed NRC9449 and NRC9448 (110/90 HD fronts or 90 std rears) plus RBC100111 Disco TD5 rubber isolators. Awesome setup. Now waiting for the new rear springs to arrive. Was running RR police spec springs on all 4 corners...

I'm fitting new OE springs to the car and have no way to determine what was the original configuration (springs too corroded). I was following this: http://www.red90.ca/rovers/springinfo.html http://www.defender2.net/gallery/albums/userpics/12383/road%20spring.png Mine is LHD, and I guess it's a...

Ok, now I'm confused

So, you say to mount the "driver side" spring on the right of the vehicle, even on a LHD? Thanks

Hello, Just a quick question I can't find the answer anywhere. On the sided suspension springs (like the NRC9449/NRC9448) the diver side/passenger side means actually the driver's side on LHD or RHD vehicles or it means the right side of the vehicle (driveline) or left side? I know, probably...

Yes, those bumper are from RSB, so I'm already checking them
