Building TUBE GUARDS for my Discovery 2 - Beater Truck Build Continues w/ Custom DIY Fabrication!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 21 май 2023
- Welcome to another episode on the Beater Truck build! We make some custom tube guards for my 1999 Land Rover Discovery 2 TD5. While some scrub bars would have been far simpler, or just some flares, I decided to push the boundaries and my skills and makes something a bit different. I'm super stoked with the outcome, enjoy the video!

Thank you all for being so patient with getting this video out! It was a massive project and I hope you all enjoy seeing all the footage condensed a bit into a long video rather than multiple videos. I am so pleased with how the guards (and the video!) came out, it pushed my skills and the finished result speaks for itself. It's been a while since the last video and RUclips will punish me for that, so a like and a share is much appreciated!! Enjoy the video!

Where's all the new videos
Where’d you go bro?
Anymore vids coming mate
we need more landrover vids come back!
Hope to see you back soon mate, missing the vids 🤘, hope all is well 🍻
Mate, that looks epic!! Great work, I love these sort of projects.
Really good idea dude. Subtle look, & better looking than brush guards.
And the longer videos are definitely welcome, your home garage fabrication work is an inspiration to other owners who have limited space like yourself.
Thanks mate, really appreciate it!
Hiya mate, even if you’re not up to making a full video update, I think it’d be awesome if you could do a community post showing how the beater truck and Hundy are doing.
This is the channel I always come back to every time I’m looking at buying a discovery
Also, it’d be awesome to know how you’re doing as well
Hope everyone is doing well mate looking forward to another video once you get the chance to edit some new footage 👍🏻
Have you got any more episodes coming up I enjoy watching your channel 🙂
Looks mint mate! Great work Tim!
So satisfying to watch both of you work !
Cheers
Can confirm, they look even better in person😍
Test run done, time to make another set for another D2 👀
Looks absolutely killer!
looks so good. really has me wanting a disco. love the work
How’s the build coming on buddy? Missing your vids! 👍👍👍
Absolutely unreal good work mate 👌
Hello from the states. Great work Tim, awesome video. Love to see the progress and all the hard work you and Ilsa did. You should be proud of your great results and an awesome video. Can't wait to see the next episode. You guys keep up the great work.
Thank you! I’m very pleased with it to say the least!
Looks unreal mate! Good job 👌🏼 I’m keen to see what you do with the rear now
Thanks! The rear is going to be similar, however I have some spicy plans for the back that need to be completed before tackling said rear guards!
Great result. Looks awesome. Going to use this for my own build.
Thanks!
Awesome video , really enjoy following your progress , keep up the great work.
Awesome mate, what a sick Idea.
Looks so sick. Nice job!
Looks bloody amazing, very different to what we see over in Aus!!
Great job love it . I have stock D2 myself. Always looking at new ideas.
Awesome wheel guards. Congratulations
It looks very cool! I'm looking forward to how you'll make the rear wheel arches!
looks rad.
Keep going with the teamwork and mods

The guards look awesome! Nice work!
Cheers!
You killed it!!!! awesome job
Mate looks bloody good!Nicely presented and has given me ideas for my Jeep build. The first video inspired me to get my ass into gear and get into it. I can say it passed an Ashley river run over the weekend with flying colours. Look foward to more videos to come - Josh
I think yous done a brilliant job of it 👍🏻 and appreciate your sharing and dedication that goes into creating something different and the content you put together 🙏
Thanks
Thanks for your kind words!
That's a super nice job! They look amazing and fit the look. It does need gun metal or just a black paint but that's the easy part👌🏼 nice job😍
Longer format to see more of your work in detail is appreciated!
Thanks, yep some darker paint is definitely will be the go. Have a lot more barwork in the pipeline so will respray it all once it’s done
So good to see something different and they look sweet as.
Beautiful work 🚀
Great to see what you and Ilsa (hope I got that right) have been up to. Looks too good for a ‘beater’!
Any videos are great from your channel. Stoked to see some more progress 😎👍.
Thanks mate, appreciate it!
that looks sick af well done
Well done! Cheers
Looks excellent Tim and Ilsa!!! Unique I would say! Your ideas and engineering are superb!! I spy the HD rear bumper under Lando, so the Beater truck must be receiving more love soon!! Get it done!! More Monday uploads please. Also, when is Matt coming back?? Legend!
Thanks! And yep, that along with more goodies are coming up in the next episode! Soon hopefully, right now the focus is on the beater however! We’ll be taking a look at his build later in the year!
Absolutely awesome!! Keep up the great work.
They look sick, quality video!
Good to see you back and fabricating looks awesome
Thanks! Really enjoyed this project
Best looking disco flares i have seen to date.
Thanks!
Awesome idea and a great execution I kinda want to build some as well
Bro that looks so good and is insanely functional! Great job!
Where you gone dude? Miss your videos !!
Nice work !
Bice job man, you have worked hard to get such a flash looking discovery
Epic work mate, looking great
Looks so rad dude I love it
Looks super cool/different. Nicely done 🤙🏻
Not bad for an old beater ! Nice work mate
Thanks man! Need to see some on a certain D1 😉
Hey crawler79 this is a banging idea! Stealing this for my D1 V8!
Keep it up dude. I just started following as I have just brought a disco 2 as well. Great motivation to get into mine!
Good choice mate! Enjoy 👌
That’s a lot of work bro! I would have used seam sealer around that join with the guard.
Nice work man looks flash as!
Wow looks awesome. Haven't seen anything like it before. I like it
Haha thanks, wanted something functional yet a bit different!
Looks mean bro. Looking forward to seeing it finished. Awesome work both of you guys. All I can say is keep that shit up.❤
Good job. What a mish.
Thats how off road vehicle bumpers & side steps began.

Thanks!!!
Love it and would love to do something similar in my d1 bush truck
Sick video man!! Good job on the guards youve done well!
Thanks mate!!!
This is the best fab job I have ever seen! Absolutely amazing work mate 👏 I'm going to attempt this on a 3rd gen 4runner maybe
Thanks! Send me a photo once you’ve done it, would look rad on a 3rd gen!
Looks great!!
@26:17 it looks like the tap is getting quite tight, if you do a 1/4 -1/2 turn back out every 1 turn in it will cut off the burr that is forming and make it easier to tap in and you can focus on driving it in straight
Well done looks savage👍
Absolutely love it, appreciate the video.n
Looks awesome.
keep up the good work chap.
Fan from the UK
Thank you!
Love your backyard work...real cool work, and lots of it...yer mad and that's cool, and you are very lucky to have a woman like Ilsa (sp) beside you...she must be mad too🤣
those look so sick
Looks awesome mate 👌. Definitely neater than scrubbies and better than nothing.
Thanks! To be honest, I reckon they should be stronger than scrubbies, nothing worse than seeing scrubbies fold in and still push a guard in!
@@Crawlerer79 yeah definitely where the support is. Its in a better spot to take load over scrubs that are bolted at bullbar and sidestep.
I never ran scrubs on my old 4.8 Gu. I did on my 1990 hilux and they paid for themselves couple times. My current Gu has scrubs but keeping it low key touring more than tough tracks.
After seeing your work when i get to the stage of a tough build again id definitely go your option over scrubs.
Congratulations on reaching 10K subs, Tim! 😄👋
This discovery will look crazy different when dun one of a kind
Interested to see what you will do on the rear
I personally like my brush bars on some cars not all look good with it them I will agree
But this looks pretty dan cool aswell
You should open shop on these custom parts you make
Carnt wait to see the before and after shots when finished
Really enjoyed the video mate. Inspired 👌🏻
so sick mate, makes me want to buy a welder and tube bender and make some barwork. keep it up
Go on!!
Brilliant!!
Awesome 😎
good work mate i like the longer video 🤙💯
Hell yea looks mean man. Bit better than the old garden edging ay
Drilling and welding on crash structures ……… ya must have a good wof man 😂
Where are ya Tim? I hope all is well! Would love to see some more content.
Top Job, bit more substantial than the moulded plastic tat that we see And get in the UK. Mine fitted by the previous owner, fell off, was only held in with self tappers. Now have conveyor belt rubber on, it bends or rips the rivets out, when I kiss a tree or the ground. No structural damage.🙂. Owning a order landrover is all about been a individual, rather than been in a herd of donkeys..., sorry jeeps 🤣. Love the content, 👍
Mate that looks amazing fair play!! Great video! Bet you can’t wait to take it off-road!!! 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼😉👍
Thanks mate, itching to get it out and about!
Love your work mate! Cheers for sharing! Any issues passing wofs with that guards?
wow its cool.
nice job needs a 3" tube bumper too match.
Nice job . ;)
Looks awesome. I got my first ever Disco a week ago. Love it so far but it really needs a locker. What's the cheapest option of getting a locker in it?
Nice! Cheapest option is a TRE locker from Aliexpress, or a Detroit auto locker. Have seen both work well
Круто.. Жду следующего видео
Good job Tim! Can we get a honest review from you for our welder? Our welder can definitely do something for you😄
Sure! Flick me a message on Instagram @timparkin19
Looks wicked longer video still isn't long enough 😂 love the content brother
Haha cheers mate!
Dude. Hope all is well. Missing your content. Hope all is well.
Rust-Oleum antique pewter is a pretty good darker metallic gun metal kinda colour
Yay trucks!!! ❤
hey man. looking to make some tube flares for my rig. what bender is that looks sick as
Love the guards and longer video. One question does the welding to body affect wof and require cert?
It definitely will but im not sure its even certifiable because of modifying the crush points. Im also wondering if he’s planning on keeping it on the road (legally 😂)
Thanks! And yes, technically any welding to any structural component of a vehicle requires cert. You can modify crash structures such as crumple zones once the vehicle is 15 years old if okayed by your cert man first
Did you need to get it certified for the fender work when you trim it to fit bigger wheels?
Will need to be certed if I decide to keep it road legal
Great informative video.. just curious are you able to do a rough price up on the cost of this project? i completely agree with your statement on how scrub bars look on discos, i am REALLY keen to go down a similar route as yourself. i have an over 2 tones of steel scaffold bars from an ex scaffolding business will they work fine you think? LOL. All the best dude hopefully catch you out in the bushes to make the trucks ends meet one day!
Hey when are you putting out another video?
Looks epic! What brand/model pipe bender do you use?
Cheers! It’s a TLP pipe bender from TopmaQ
When the next video of this D2
Be awesome to see it finished
