I've noticed ARB and others mention airbag compliant front bar work ? My 80 has airbags so if I bolt on a non air bag compliant winch bumper what's going to happen . Not worried about on road but off road is a nudge against a rock or stump going to trigger my airbags ? I took a couple of front...

As thread title...... opinion's on the best and most reliable air -down tools budget or otherwise . Boulder Tools seem to be commonly available but get mixed reviews on both the screw on type and the core removal type.... I have mixed feelings about the type that remove the valve core as surely...

Before anyone get's excited...they're not Toyota ;-) I have 4 alloys off a Y61 Nissan Patrol that are surplus... They aren't in bad nick ...have 4 tyres fitted .... I think they all hold air ... Jap 6 stud , fit an 80 but the PCD put's them slightly narrower than stock 80 alloys .... probably...

As the title says....my R/H rear mud guard has a slight wobble on after giving it a clout on a log.... seems one or more of the brackets has probably got a bit tired/rusty.... Pretty sure when I take it off things will develop so it would be nice to have the parts on hand and then while doing...

Looked at a mates very clean 90 yesterday with an unusual problem for one of these.... it wasn't getting warm ! I had fitted a new upgraded head etc a few years ago and it runs well ... turned out to be the thermostat stuck open ...new OE one fitted and problem solved . However it is very oily...

For years we've laughed a bit at the old LR Defender owners..... ( I had one so not entirely biased ) as they replaced chassis , bulkheads , spent £100's fitting lockers , lifts and upgrades to achieve what an out the box 80 can do. However last few weeks 3 customers have sold their not mint...

As title....anyone tried to fit 100 series front brake calliper's on an 80 ? They have slightly bigger piston diameter and I know 100 series pads fit my 80 so only difference is going to be mounting points /alignment What callipers do 105's use ?

As title... After a pair of front drivers and passengers seat head rests in grey leather.... need to be the front pair with the adjustment . Thanks

In this day and age few things exceed expectations but the seat covers that just arrived from Escape Gear have managed to do so . Communication with them was brilliant.... they told me delivery would be slower than normal due to reduced workforce capacity and offered a full refund... I told...

Been looking at camp chairs and decided the Oztent King Kokoda fit's the bill perfectly but the website say's out of stock and I've sent them messages and not had any reply . I know stock from Aus is delayed and in short supply but would have thought they will reply to enquiries ....

Driving along today and the mind starts to wander... I would love to put an FTE into my 80 but lots of messing with wiring etc ..... I have more than enough other projects in bits .... So , has anyone built a hybrid FT/FTE engine ? Thoughts are the FTE block is stronger than the FT and has a...

After several years I got round to fitting some extended rear arb drop plates and a home made spacers on the front arb after I fitted an OME 2inch lift suspension ( now settled in nicely ).....also fitted some of the nolathene bushes from Roughtrax . Rear drop plates came from Benji Craddock...

As the title states.... what folding camp chairs are you using ? and what's rubbish and what's good ? We all spend hopefully many hrs sitting round a campfire drinking beer and putting the world straight .... if at home in the field it's a fishing bed chair for me but it's hardly portable when...

Front of my 80 is looking a bit sad as slight rust on the centre section of the bumper and some idiot managed to scrape the corner section while it was parked in a carpark . I could sand blast and repaint but I'm thinking I want to put something on the front that will do more damage to the...

Because of my business I've been flat out working all through lockdown and have found watching 24/7 4x4 the ideal way to unwind at night .....although getting in from work at 22.30 and then watching Shauno and Graham until 1.00am can be a little tiring..... mate working in Austria in same...

After a busy summer and going self employed I have found a bit of time to give my 80 some TLC . After 160K miles the front axle is being treated to some new SKF CV joints , outer hub plates and roller bearing conversion plus all seals and bearings in the hubs. Trouble is on removing the R/H...

The CV Joints on my 80 have got about 170K on them and are just starting to click a bit. Searching forums and *bay found various joints from various unknown manufacturers . I then found these SKF branded joints.....good but the picture doesn't show ABS rings. I contacted the seller and told...
