    Defender is a winner. Ive had mine 3 years now. They aren't perfect but they are about as good as you can get in the utility class. Mine is 2016 hd10, epi mudder clutch kit, 29.5" xm310 (thanks sxsblog!) and s3 heavy duty spring kit, SYA warrior riser kit. 2000 miles
    Damage in 3 years:1 twisted tie rod, 1 axle boot, 1 belt

Cause what you guys do and the review you guys give out are great for ppl looking to buy 1 of these.

Next, a bench seat ? If I wanted a bench seat I’d buy a 570 ranger. The lack of a factory roof is also being pretty cheap.
