I came here to hear the sound of the horn ☹️☹️☹️☹️

Block of wood on top of the trolley Jack works great 👍🏼

I’ve got one off those seal tools he does a few different ones and an A frame tool (which is how I find his listing)

Toyota Land Cruiser ❤ , the beast !

Having owned both and USED both in the offroad application in Africa , I know which one is best and which one does not break , which is very important in large open places , defenders are better suited to european conditions where help is always only a few hours away at most . Dependability is paramount offroad , not electronic trickery and yes , the last ones (puma 2.4 and 2.2 ) benefited from electronic trickery , where the Toyota has manual front and rear lockers , with central locker available in low ranger 4x4 . Take out the abs fuse in a 2007 to 2015 and you find how singularly useless the central diff lock system is when oppsing wheels are short of traction . Diff locks front and rear dont suffer that problem . Do I enjoy the old defender , yes , do I want to own one again , no not really , do I want to own a Land Cruiser 70 series , yes , most definately once my Range Rover hits depreciation write off point , a brand new , zero km Toyota LC 70 series is in my driveway . I think that in itself speaks volumes , I have never before had to depreciate a car to zero to be able to get out of it , thats how bad LR products are these days .

Off. His. Noggin.

My '96 300tdi has been "on the limit" for the past 3 years here in France which seems to have similar limits. This year I used some of that injector cleaner in the fuel and I "turned down" the deisel pump. I turned the pump screw 1/2 turn because a few years back, a new bigger intercooler was fitted and the garage boosted the pump to get more power. The MoT tester said it was well within the limits. I also changed oil and the deisel filter so what actually made the difference, I don't know.

Why not go to the supermarket. Do your shopping and then check your oil when you've finished. Surely easier than emptying the garage?

The landy saw your other landy, got upset and gave up. Second hand landy's are a gamble. You dont know what the maintance was before you had it. It has done well considering landrover never galvernised chassis. Most modern cars last 100, 000 miles. It is time. If you have time to rebuild, keep it. If you dont have time, give it a chance of a new life by letting some else rebuild it. Best of luck.

Land Rover is my dream Car Produk..😍😍😍😍

I used heat, and only got 4 burns 😂 a better finish.

I did what you did just this morning while working on ball joints.. didn't mean to, wish I hadn't .. next time I'll only use a hammer to break the bolt free...I put it all back together painstakingly, but that last part with the thin metal clamp (that I didn't have) cost me an hour of heavy duty brain power trying to reseal the boot to the bolt.. not my proudest moment .. now seeing this, I'm relieved, but also a little more butt hurt for the time I wasted today. Thanks

Wolf id best and if you dont put on the back door you are fine. Very strong and really good off road. I have had some problems in the past off road with the steels

Very good 👍🏻

What about oil syringes?

Slowest auto manufacturing line I've seen.

I believe that the old one have imperial threads on pipe, and the new one to td5 is metric.

2:18 - connector to wing loom; how do you separate it?

They got it right the first time! Automotive perfection.

Never knew about vls, its interesting who is compliant

Same in the UAE. I can understand why it’s good for the locals, but still a shame when a nice wadi track is covered.

I may have missed it but who is funding the road building/improvement?

Some Councils in Australia dug up potholed bitumen/tarmac in places and graded the road, because it was less costly to maintain.

Good discussion on the dichotomy of change/development… I feel the sadness. Hope the locals see good change, and avoid the bad

Cool thumbnail 🙌🏻

Great story Will, it is so true that there are two sides to infrastructure improvements. It was a real eye opener on this trip and on others I've been on. Seeing more traffic push into the Kalahari and Namibia also gives me mixed emotions. It can't all stay as it was, and improvements for the locals is key, but I do always feel we are losing just a little more of the wildness that makes this planet such an incredible place. Cheers!

Maybe use some wire to tighten it a bit better?

Hello Chris, I am looking for the type of connectors for the power window and door lock (2007 defender) that are located on the wire loom in the car.... so not on the door. Can you tell me where I can find those connectors or an OEM number? Many thanks, Toine from Holland 😁

These armchair mechanics piss me off, there is nothing wrong with replacing the boot as long as the joint is in good condition . If the joint is bad it will still fail an MOT new boot or otherwise, the way the joint is tested is to put a fairly long bar underneath to check for movement and new boot will not stop that. He has also greased the joint which will extend the life of the joint. As long as the boot has not been split for an extended period there is no reason not to do this.

You've given me hope!

I'd take the defender anyday, I feel they are fairly reliable based on experiences shared by Defender owners from africa and as you have mentioned it's the all wheel coilover setup and full time 4x4 system that makes us like them even more. A td5 or a 300tdi would be great pick for me.

Didn't they undergo a galvanization dip, what a shame🙄

Great video. I had watched it before, but only now Do I actually need to do something like this.. Would it be just as easy to purchase all of the parts from a 2002 onwards and replace the gearboxes with those ?would I be able to use the same motor ? LHD 1988 LR90

Do you find that cap system to leak around the pivoting swivel that wires connect to? Or is this where the coolant should leak from if the system is over full?

Where did you put the plus side? Under the seat or is there an better pole?

Hi mate ive just put a tdi engine in my td5 defender . And im struggling to get the glow plug light working. It lights up when i earth the yellow and black wire but i carnt get my head around how to make it work with my simplified td5 wiring loom any help appreciated thanks

You are the real deal man, taking the Land Rovers out with a PURPOSE. Sending cheers from us and our 300tdi in Montana!

You lifesaver! ❤

i love this series! please do a walk around at the defenders

Fantastic video! Great to see the trip from your perspective. Hard to believe it has been a year -- it feels like 10!! 😆

Love the “working title” 😂 6:17

wow..good luck team

See the trailer of the professional documentary ua-cam.com/video/k1ZcaPCgr6A/v-deo.html

I heard whether it is true or not Scotland built them as well

I watched the video but I don't know if the answer to my question is in it. That's why I have to ask for help. I have a 300 TDI ROW (lhd). I want to fit a main harness from the td5 because it has a lot of features that I don't have on the td5, but mainly ABS, which is not available on any TDI harness. So the question is whether the td5 harness will fit the tdi, especially if the engine connectors are the same. Or if there are any incompatibilities TY

I'd guess the OEM are friction welded. Total guess.

Hi! Thanks for the video. I have alloy wheels, nice looking but trickier to change. I think the best options is the steel standard. Regards

Hi, Hopefully, you're still monitoring this channel. I'm relocating the rear heater, fog light and hazard switches from lower right (steering wheel) to a central console as per the video. Can you explain the re-wiring steps that use existing 300TDI wires into TD5 switches ? For example, fog light only has 2 wires (white and white/green trace), but is this just straight plug and play via 5 PIN connectors to the right 2 terminals only ? Similarly for rear heated window. Yours, frustrated amateur !
