Need a few opinions from you boys on extra lights:D I bought my S3 88" a few months ago & am slowly getting her to how I want! Its only used for greenlaning & maybe the odd pay & play.Im no rivet counter but do want to keep it looking decent so the question on where to mount extra spots has me a...

Unless you lot have other thoughts:D Right! I bought a Series 3 with a ****e tdi conversion which Im trying to sort out. Have only driven in around the estate until last weekend when I did a bit of laning when discovered that the battery was'nt getting any charge. Multi meter confirmed this so I...

So my S3 has had a 200tdi fitted by its previous owner and the associated modified downpipe is badly made & right up against the chassis rail. Before I fit a new downpipe (the ones made for these conversions) how likely am I to struggle removing the three nuts & old downpipe from the manifold...

Thank fook I cant find my:mad: lump hammer Replaced both the clutch master & slave cylinders on the s3 yesterday with Lucas parts & now Ive come to bleed the thing, it seems the brand new master is blocked with no fluid leaving the cylinder. Took off the single outlet pipe on the master &...

Lads, Im looking for a pair of now discontinued BFG Trac edge tyres size 235/85/16. Can anyone help? Preferably around midlands,lincs,notts or south yorks area's!

Hi chaps, Bought a Series 3 last week with a bad 200tdi conversion in terms of attention to detail:( Because the diesel filter pipes to the lift pump & diesel pump are so short, the previous owner left the damn thing hanging:eek: I want to secure the filter unit to the bulkhead but am unsure on...

Eyup lads! Been looking at all the different versions of disco converted pick ups but the one I really liked has, I think, disappeared from tinternet:rolleyes: Twas a white (if I remember proper) d1 or d2 with a 90 or series tub mounted to it:) Been bleedin googlin all day & cant find it again...

Evening lads;) Managed to get an almost new condition replacement soft top for my old girl but could do with a bit of guidance on what is the correct tie down cord it should have. At the moment, it has sommat that feels a bit like a cross between rope & nylon cord:confused: My old hood used...

Evening lads;) Really fancy doing the air conditioner to onboard air compressor mod on my 90 but before I start scouting around the scrappies, did the 2.5n/a's or TD's ever come out with air conditioners? If they did, the mounting brackets would be worth sourcing! Has anyone done this mod to the...

Im hoping to splash out on a truckcab canvas hood while the weathers more or less behaving itself but have a question for the more knowledgable:) The channel is currently bodge fastened with two bolts thru it and the windscreen frame so obviously I would like to sort it as it should be done...

The previous owner of my 90 said the suspension had recently been upgraded.All I can see are what seems to be a full set of orange polybushes and blue coloured coils with decarbon shockers.Most of the kit Ive seen have yellow springs, is there any difference at all? Cheers Martin

Evening all;) My wee 90 is a soft top and I would like to fit a truckcab for over the winter months.Not having jacksh!t experience on the matter,who knows of any pitfalls to watch out for when doing the conversion or is it plain sailing? Cheers Martin

If any ones doing this stretch, I need a defender truck cab bringing down;) Cheers lads! Martin

Im just about to remove the 2.5td from my 90 (everythings loose but still in position) but wondering if its necessary to support the gearbox at all. The existing mounts look strong but not sure if a block of wood between the box and the round chassis brace is needed:confused: What ya think?:)

Im already starting to smile about owning my 90;) Browsing on Paddocks website, I cant believe how friggin cheap most spares are in comparison to my 'ol frontera. Just wish the damn weather would improve so I can get some work done on it:mad:

Evening all! As a newbie to Landys, when did the 90 become the defender and was there many differences? Curiosity you see;) Mine is an '84 softtop.

Hi lads & ladettes;) Been lurking around for a week & decided to get my a into g and register on here:D There's a good few forums around but this one seemed like a bunch of looneys so I thought I might just fit in! Just sold a perfectly good & reasonably prepped Fronty only to replace it with a...
