Come to the conclusion that I'm not going to be able to get another csw, so looking to get rid of these seats. Anybody interested before I stick them on...

    Ola, the wife's 110 Defender project

    Here is Ola as we got her. The wife wanted to modify her somewhat to make her our own, and so we have plans for converting her to something a bit different. I know I've already put links for the first 2 videos in the Defender section, but thought I'd start a proper project thread for her, as...

    The wife's new Defender on Youtube

    I know the first part of any project is boring, but feel free to check out my missus new Defender which we'll be restoring and modifying. I'll also try and get a load of pics together to start a proper project thread.

    Handbrake button

    Well, the wife's only gone and lost the handbrake button out of the top of the handle, so I'm left with this little needle that pierces the end of my thumb every time I use the handbrake. Is this button replaceable, or do I have to change the bloody handle? Looked in the footwell and all sorts...

    Defender 300TDI battery

    After a lovely couple of normal winter days, the battery on my truck completely gave up the ghost. I therefore pass on my knowledge of a decent battery upgrade which is the Yuasa HSB020. 900 CCA and 110 Ah Whilst it is too long to go through the battery tray cover straight down, the design...

    Front Centre Seat

    On the look out for one, but not willing to pay ridiculous prices for a new one, and all the used ones on Ebay seem to be miles away from me. Anybody know of anybody breaking a Defendant somewhere near Sheffield, or does anybody have a centre seat floating around in a garage/shed/loft that they...

    Strong Stella

    No, sorry for you guys checking for anything alcohol related, this is just what my little girl christened our 110 CSW, and the name has stuck since. I got his some time ago, and despite intending to do a quick tidy up and use it, ended up being a much more involved project with an impending...

    Springs for my weight

    Hoping I can draw on your guys expertise. I'm replacing the springs on my Defender because the ones that are on look ready to shatter, and I need to take one out anyway to patch a small hole in the chassis. I'm therefore trying to ensure that I get the correct type of springs to match the...

    Lack of parts on ebay

    I have been scouting for some Series 3 88" side panels, and saw an abundance locally to me in Sheffield before, but now can't seem to locate any close by. I'm after some hardtop versions to convert my CSW into a Utility. Can anybody suggest other places to look. Tried Gumtree and the like, but...

    NRC4171 110 CSW crossmember dimensions

    Hi, Anybody have access to one who could give me some general dimensions of the thing, namely the length, width and depth. I can work out where the indentation and brackets need to go. I am going to get a Galv one when I get a new chassis, so going to get something fabbed from the pile of...

    One job to another

    Well, had the infamous death wobble, so after a quick check, I considered the swivel needed adjusting. Talk about taking on the simple jobs first!!! Anyway, one side was fine, and didn't need anything changing. The drivers side however, as soon as the hub was free, would turn with a blow it...

    2 questions

    I was underneath the new car last night, starting to clean up the chassis. As you will see from the pics, she's not got a great deal of life left in her, but if I can keep her going for another couple of years, I'll treat her to a Galvanised chassis. Anyway, got the old wire wheel on the drill...

    Soundproofing and undersealing

    Hi, Yet to pick my Defender up, but already planning on what I want to do to her first. I don't plan on going overboard, but would like to refresh and tidy her up, so I got to thinking firstly, on soundproofing and undersealing. I'm assuming for soundproofing, I can use some of the self...
