Acquired a replacement rear tub and body sides for the 110 resto/rebuild. Its in great shape but has a couple of areas of concern. The LH and RH rear corner stiffeners in the body sides have rusted. The RH is worse than the LH: This is not listed as a replacable/spare part in the original LR...

I sometimes wonder what LR designers were thinking, and the jointing methods & materials used on the front wings is a catalogue of curious decisions. The working theory is thus; by riveting, bolting and spot welding the wing it was designed as a tradesman test. Anyone who could complete all...

I have done a good trawl of the forum...the internet...and even asked ChatGTP* and have found a low res example (as per the title) but does anyone know of a source of a wiring diagram? I have seen the lovely 110 military examples but these are likely to have some significant...

These axles and wheels are fitted to my 1987 110 (the one in projects...up for restoration). The front axle serial number is elusive and I cannot find it but could do with an ID: Any clues there? Next, the rear axle. This is fitted with discs, which as I understand it, were not fitted until...

I started out with a quest to find a 90 with a 200TDI or 300TDI with a rotten chassis and bulkhead. The kind of thing that was ripe for a galvanised replacement. After kicking a few tyres I ended up with an 1987 E reg 110 fitted with a Isuzu 2.8l turbo. Initial thoughts are the chassis might be...

I may well be aquiring a 110 fitted with an Izizu 2.8 lump in a chassis that needs...a new chassis. The question of what is better - Izizu or 200tdi - is for another day, but the question for now is thus: How much work is needed to a std chassis and bulkhead to fit the Izizu? How far from...

If I understand things correctly (and bear with me...new to Defenders...) the original braking setup on the 90/110 was discs front and drums rear - is that correct? If yes, does anyone know what year the change to all discs happened? And is it possible to fit later disc rear axle to a 90/110...

I'm about to move house to a place with a decent sized workshop. This space will need projects...and one under consideration is a 90/110/101 rebuild...a vehicle to get back to the bare bones and rebuild with a view of it seeing my time out on this planet...sharing the rebuild with grandson and...
