    OE parts....expensive, but better

    I learnt the hard way on this, its really hit and miss. Sometimes you can buy Britpart or other low price tackle and it is fine, but something you can tell they are just not up to scratch and they will let you down. Classic example I had were engine mounts, bought a set of cheep ones, 1 was...

    Clutch pipe!

    Defender screen to bulkhead / screen to roof seals

    Make sure to have a good look at the top corners of your bulkhead while youre there.......the seals like to hold water there and while youve got the seal out it will be a good indication on any future work coming up! The bulkhead that was on my 90 was trashed because of this, and the fact I...
