    Front vent flaps

    As the weather is starting to warm a tad, I need these vents working. The passenger side one opens a bit, halfway maybe, but I think it's just bending the metal it is hinging on, as seen in the picture. It's holding it up/wonky angle, and the drivers side will not budge an inch. The knob inside...

    Oil leak from swivel

    Noticed some oil from what I think is called the swivel on the front axle. I have included a picture of my good one and my bad one. The hubs were all done up in 2010-ish before I got it.

    Hello there

    Hi all. Finally plucked up the courage to buy my first Defender, after everyone warned me off. Thought it was something I needed to get out of my system! Last week picked up an 03 plate pickup and it seems mostly fine, but a few issues I will ask for help with later. But loving the driving...
