    Mantec Snorkel

    Can anyone tell me if the snorkel sits taller than the highest point on the roof of a 90? Looking to fit one but it only just goes in the garage as it is, I don’t want it not fitting just because of a snorkel. Thanks,

    New tyres and spacers

    Finally got some new tyres and spacers fitted on my 90. Went for BFG A/T KO2, so far I am very impressed with the fact that they aren’t any noisier than the original Grabbers. It’s also amazing how much softer it rides, just proves that you should change your tyres on age not just wear.

    Spare wheel theft

    So someone decided yesterday that there need for my spare wheel was greater than mine! The wheel was a standard boot alloy with the original old tyre. This was fixed to the rear door carrier with a locking wheel nut. Is there a decent security option so that it does not happen again?

    Recommendations for subtle rocksliders without treebars

    As per the title I am looking to put some rock sliders on my Defender, one of the sills is damaged from the previous owner and I am planning on doing some green laning so kill two birds with one stone. I really want some very subtle ones with no tree bars which look like they came on the 90 from...

    Rear Crossmember Refurbishment

    Hi All, As the bad weather will soon be upon us I thought that I better pull my finger out and refurbish the rear crossmember on the 90. I have used Buzzweld rust encapsulator and chassis in one satin black paint after reading lots of good things about these products. I am really happy with...

    Changing the gear ratios in Defender transfer box

    Hi All, I am currently looking into changing the gearing in my transfer box to this gear set https://www.ashcroft-transmissions.co.uk/lt230-ratio-changes/1-222-gear-set.html which is the same used in TD5 Discovery. Is this something that can be done without removing the box if I had access to a...

    Vibration through steering wheel

    Hi All, I have put the 90 into daily commuting use, however I have noticed a really annoying vibration/wobble through the steering wheel between 60-70 mph. I have checked the basics to ensure nothing is loose and it all looks ok, could it be the steering damper on the way out? I am also going...

    Slickshift Sucessfully Fitted

    Hi All, Just a quick post, today I fitted a Slickshift kit to my 90 and I have to say that I am very impressed. The throw on the shift is significantly reduced which makes for a much nicer drive. The kit is nice and easy to install with some basic tools and YouTube. I wish I had done it sooner!

    AT or MT?

    Hi All, The tyres on my 90 are still the originals and although the tread is fine they are starting to perish, so the question is what to go for next? I have already decided to go up to 265/75, mainly because they look better and they don’t seem to effect performance on or off road much, but I...

    Clutch noise

    Hi All, My Defender TD5 has started making a noise when I engage the clutch and backing it out of the garage, as soon as I have done this it stops. It only seems to happen after it has been standing over night. The noise is a kind of whining and only happens when I am lifting my foot off the...

    Hi Everyone

    Hi All, I have been a long time lurker on here, but at the end of last year I came across a Defender and had to snap it up. It’s a 2006 TD5 CSW, 2 owners and with just 50k on the clock with LR history to back it up. Although mechanical it’s been looked after, the Defender needed some cosmetic...
