    New here and enjoy the vids and jobs 👍🏻
    But please wear safety glasses, air lines and grinding etc with that rusty metal is an accident waiting to happen. I know being young is like being invincible, but you only get your eyes once 👀🙏🏻
    Also paper masks would be an idea, look at your skin, that’s going into you lungs D’oh !!!

    Got my hots for a 2003 disco 2 currently on sale in my neighborhood. But the engine head on is cracked - wonder if you have any idea on how bad that is to change? Your head swap on this defender seemed to be somewhat extensive for a hobbyist... Though you seemed to manage it easily... Twice ;)

    If you are thinking of doing this, really test it all out with a hammer first. It can go either way. It might be bad further forward, or the exact opposite :o) This one is really good, I would have grabbed some 3mm steel sheet and only replaced the middle section. Outriggers are fine, the top is fine. Pop some tubes in for the hitch and weld on some tow hooks. Also, personal recommendation is Old Man Emu shocks. They have decent sized rods. They are so good I just sold mine for half price second hand. Decent :D
