Stunning defender, if i ever have on i want it to look like this,

Agree with a lift kit to sort out the rubbing.
Have been considering mud tyres for my series 3, might be overkill tho

Cheers mate, turned out the steering lock bolts were screwed all the way in, just had to bring them back out and no more rubbing so happy days!!

Basically there is a extra water tank under the driver, one switch pumps this water via a 4mm copper pipe which spirals around the exhaust with the engine running. Then after about 10 mins you flick another switch and than fires up the larger pump. I then basically have a shower head attached to some hose which you contact to the tank and attach to the roof rack on a telescopic pole.. Job done. No shower curtain mind you...

Ok so I installed the JW Speaker 8700 headlights with sidelights and i am well pleased, they look great and the light from them is so much better. Def a good mod. Also made the decision to get the hannibal roof rack powder coated black so i removed the HID spots, prefer them off myself tbh. hopefully will get the rack off over the weekend.

Headlights let it down a lot IMO.

Why not go for a rack of spots, as per every other off-roader?

Like everyone else?? Afraid that's not my style... :grinning: The jw speakers really need to be seen to be appreciated. I wasn't so sure until I seem them myself.
