@@pseudoexfoliacion7378 thanks for the comment. The headlights are so much better than the original lights you can actually see when it is dark now.

@@Allthingsdefender Thanks again!

Obviously on private green lanes!

​@@Allthingsdefender yeah on private lanes 🫣👍🏼

@@cormac1000 hi I have just been looking back to see where I actually purchased it from and I can’t find it at all. I can tell you it’s not an original part for sure so possibly a Britpart. So far I have had no issues with it though. Thanks for watching and commenting. I shall make a note to self to put actual parts and purchases in the comments on future videos.

@@Allthingsdefender thank you for the swift reply

@@ultra999999999 it had absolutely no oil in it. I think my mother whom used to own it never actually used the high/low or diff lock so when I tried to diff lock it seized and was like actually hitting a brick wall. One day I shall open up the transfer box and see what’s actually gone wrong. I shall obviously video opening it I’m sure it will be entertaining!

@@ddnuk dumdum? What’s that. I’m not a mechanic so no idea what that is. I’m glad of comments like this so everyone can learn something including me.

Butyl tape. It’s the black sticky stuff LR used to fill gaps in the bodywork to stop water ingress. Peel it off the roll mould it and stick it in the gaps between panels and fittings.

@@ddnuk thanks very much for that I shall get some of that for sure.

@@deanh3741 many thanks for that yes I was going to but didn’t have any but definitely need to get some. Thanks for watching and commenting.

@@jessestrum it’s a twist one

@@AngusAbbott-qf8xm i did see the slotted bracket I thought they would be weaker so went for the full circle.

Really I hadn’t even noticed to be honest. I shall have a look. Thanks for the comment. Hope you enjoy my content? Actually just looked at the video myself how can you tell? Is it the uneven wear on the tyre if so I hadn’t noticed that either!

Many thanks I hope you enjoy the content. Any suggestions for further videos please speak up.

@@Allthingsdefender I've got a Disco 2 V8 but always enjoy some Defender content. I hope to be an older Defender owner soon.

@@JUKE179r old defenders are just Meccano sets for grown up kids!

Thanks so much for that I shall work out how to do that and check it out. I’ll obviously make a video on it too!

Thanks John I really appreciate it, I hope you enjoy my content.

Ummm I did look at that but I assumed it was the pump so ordered a pump without really checking. Probably a school boy error but the pump I think was possibly leaking too as covered in oil. Well that’s what I’m telling myself to justify a pump change! Thanks for watching and commenting.

Mine squealed while turning the steering wheel only. Tightened the belt and no more squealing..

Perfect glad you got yours fixed too

I got them off eBay. www.ebay.co.uk/itm/285503233902?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=8Z1edsAgSY-&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=Q6r0se_4RLS&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

Didn’t know that. Everyday is a learning day. Yes the windscreen is on my list of to do’s thanks for the comment.

I didn’t know that thanks for the info I shall get that sorted.

I didn’t know that either, bloody MOT tests

@@AngusAbbott-qf8xm I have a video coming out soon on wiring it all up correctly

Could you just run a cable from the reversing lights on the car, to the corresponding socket connector? Or will it be a faff with the vehicle electronics?

@barbarybar I don’t think it works like that. The extra box of electronics has relays in there to separate both sides of the electrical circuits. Using LED lights always causes havoc with the electronics if you’re not careful.

They seam ok so far. Have only just fitted them so time will tell. They are proper rubber so I’m expecting them to be good.

@@Allthingsdefender thanks mate.

Good idea. I will do that. Thanks

I’m sorry

No problem hearing you. A note re removal of reverse and number plate lights. I heat the plastic around the bolts and just pull straight off. Simples :-)

@@simonbarclay9507 hi thanks for the reply. I’m glad you can hear it ok. Not sure why the other guy couldn’t. Yes I was aware you could hear them up to remove them. Thanks for watching

Thanks so much for that I will change mine over the next time I do an oil change as you probably know I’ve only just done it in a new box. Many thanks for watching my channel.

Hi yes I was planning to take them off as they so faded silver sounds good to me. I believe the car Portofino Red.

@@Allthingsdefender are you sure looks Rutland red

@@Black_Templar_Marshal no I’m not 100% sure it is something I have been trying to find out exactly what colour it is. I believe the Rutland red was only on 300tdi onwards and this is definitely a 200tdi. But as I say I’m not sure.

@@Allthingsdefender Rutland red has been used since early 90 110 and disco 200 I’ve had a 2002 facelift disco van in Rutland red pal so age doesn’t matter Edit: I’m positive it’s Rutland red pal Edit again: the reason I said 90 and 110 was because that’s what the defender was called before it was named defender and yes yours is a 200 tdi but it shouldn’t have come with the 110 stickers because only pre defender models have it but it does look nice and I’ve done it to mine as well.

@@Allthingsdefender I’ve put a photo of mine on RUclips profile picture for reference this is Rutland red that’s been polished

Very good point didn’t even think of that. From now on I shall always do that. Cheers thanks for the advice.

Thanks for commenting

Thanks for your comment. Hope you realise it’s a Land Rover it’s got so many rust holes, it would leak like a sieve!

@@Allthingsdefender Rust holes? Isn't it aluminium?

@@nodiggity9472 unfortunately not all aluminium. It’s a mixture of aluminium and steel and they actually touch so causes electrolytic corrosion which is just annoying.

@@Allthingsdefender I can see how that might be problematic. Can't you use a sacrificial electrolyte like Magnesium?

I’m not sure I assumed the spacer was for the 300tdi. I will research it and if your right it give more power then I will install it for sure. 👍

I’m not sure it gave more power but it definitely helped with a better tickover on start up. I think it may also be more responsive when driving but that may be just in my head.

It never has responded well at low revs so I suspect it’s defo broken. Looking forward to getting the new one installed. Should be Monday.

Thanks for the reply. Yes I tried that too off camera I was getting annoyed with it. I have taken off the fuel lift pump it doesn’t appear to be supplying any pressure I think I’m lucky the truck actually run at all. It maybe why it was also slow and not very responsive. Got a new one coming Monday so will fit that and review the results then.

They will all be expert drivers by the time they get to 17 years old and pass their driving tests first time.

Many thanks I will try to make more

Thank you so much

The lights and the DRL controller came from LRparts check out my video of when I fitted the lights too. They are great lights for only £55 ruclips.net/video/Bqt2b_YfdnU/видео.htmlsi=CV4AaUUr4rAdvnjV

@@Allthingsdefenderthanks very much, will check it out

Thank you very much

I’m glad I’ve given inspiration to change them, they make a huge difference. I shall take a look at the slam bars as you say. I’m also going to rub down the bumper and respray that.

It’s sure was fun.

Thanks for watching.

How bad is Wilfred

Glad you liked it!

It was great fun

Hi many thanks. I didn’t prime it maybe I should have done. I want to repaint the whole chassis at some point. Thanks for watching.

Yep sure did he loves the car

Haha ok I shall keep it as a 200tdi

I was thinking it could have been the wiring going to the starter motor possibly the ignition key switch as that’s hanging off.

Hi I’m glad I’ve motivated you into starting yours again. No mine is a 200tdi I’m not sure why it didn’t start first go it usually does, although that was its first start for many months so maybe that’s why. Good luck with yours what is your project is it a fully restoration?

@@AllthingsdefenderA 200 tractor👍 Aye, probably sluggish just with lying up then. Mine is a partial restore. It's not going back to show condition! I bought it with an empty engine bay. I thought I had nothing to do but drop in my old Disco engine - turned out that was pretty shagged, though, and I had to do a full nut n bolt engine rebuild - fun, but spendy. It's a thing of beauty now though, and fires first kick - I also had to clock the turbo to clear the 110 wing, because the Disco 200 turbo sits low. Salisbury + drums.on the rear - but all the mounts on it were shagged, and poorly repaired - so that job is holding the project up. I've welded on shock mounts, but still got the trailing arm mounts to do. No big workshop, so tricky in the wind, and rain. I'm thinking of just dropping the axle out completely to make the job easier - but then I wouldn't be able to help stripping the diff down... doing the A-frame etc 🙄 Doors aren't too bad, probably needs the dash out, for some loom work, and the body is pretty untidy - Needs stripped back and resprayed to get rid of the Dulux, and filler! The chassis was well waxed, and shutzed over its life, but the crossmember was paper - got a galvi crossmember cheap enough. After that, maybe a full rear bulkhead conversion for a bit of legroom - cut it away and put a bar in. I'll have to look in and see how you're getting on with yours if you post anything else. I keep going to do videos, but can never be arsed! All the best 👍🍺

You should video it even if it’s just a record for yourself. I watch my own videos to see how to put it back together again after I’ve taken it apart!

Many thanks. It’s coming along slowly. I hope to get it back on the road soon.

Haha yes your right I need to do this again

Hi thanks for the reply. I’m glad I did take it all out as a novice it gave me so much more room to work with.

Thanks
