My 91 range rover classic has a solid frame ( 300,000 miles ) my wife's 94 disco 1 has a solid frame, we also have a 96 disco 1 ( spares dept ) with a solid frame, when we looked at changing the 94 disco for a disco 2 we looked at quite a few all with rusty frames, what happened did LR cut cost and buy cheaper frames?. we did think of putting a disco 2 body on the disco 1 frame but not sure it would work, anyone found a solution to this problem, as a foot note I had a 71 RRC many years ago and that had a rotten frame as well.
Thanks for the update, it's the classic Land Rover snowball effect. I'm trying to see what I can afford to put in my Disco 1 to replace the tired 200tdi, I'm hesitant to go to Td5 and I'm currently looking at fitting an American V8. There are no cheap options apparently!
In the UK, the (os) drivers side is nearly always more rusted than the passenger side (ns). It's always weird to me. Plus, my defender chassis at the front is still black from the shop, (1994) but the back is non-existent, hahaha.
Its a shame that there are no before and after performance figures to see the numbers other than a subjective opinion on the noise. Personally, I doubt that there has been any gain over the stock system as both have the same cold air intake and the foam filter in the canister would put me off immediately because they generally don't work, either filtration or flow. The stock air box will probably be excellent at flow and spend money on a K&N panel filter, you will have great flow, filtration and durability with 1M mile warranty and 40,000ml cleaning routine. You will also find its probably less prone to ingesting water should you go wading. I would have retained the stock filter box, fit it with a K&N and then insulated the existing box and ducts with closed cell insulation to retain the cold air. That package would have improved horsepower and torque.
Absolutely nothing like a great induction noise! Drove a little Caterham 660cc once - with its tiny turbo - was the most fun I've had on four wheels in a long time! Had the widest grin on my face everytime I floored the throttle!
I had a Forge hose kit on my old Smart Roadster and that helped the engine note too, it was a nicely made kit. I really believe a nicely tuned induction note can sound better than an exhaust note, less obnoxious for people outside too.
T wash or an etch primer. Epoxy primer or a DTM epoxy and 2 pck semi gloss black. Please don't paint it in garden furniture paint.. They are cheap for a reason..
Excited to see this progress with your Defender! I’m hoping to use Hammerite on my Galvanised Chassis too so will be interested to see how you get on 😃
Please treat the Chassis with T-Wash before painting galvanised metal or the paint will fall off! I tried Fox shocks on my 110, they are rubbish compared to Koni Heavy tracks!
Thanks. People either seem to love or hate the Fox shocks (most of the negativity I've seen has been due to a lack of durability). But I've got them now so I'll give them a go and may switch to Koni if they're no good. At least it'd be an excuse for another video 😄
Yes, I suffer from that Paddock shopping basket syndrome. Just need a heater cable for my '89 110. GBP 1500 later..... Never mind, my therapist has prescribed medication and therapy sessions and says I will be better in no time. Looking forward to following this story.
DON'T paint over the fresh Galvanizing, it will 'throw' the paint after a short period. You either need to leave it for a year to weather. Or treat it with an acid first. There are products sold for this but honestly don't paint it without doing something.
@@user-fz8ep5ey4v What a stupid moronic thing to say. If he just goes ahead and paints over the galvie then it will flake off within weeks. Maybe you get a kick out of watching someone make a big mistake, there's a name for people like you, narcissist.
@@TirsbaekTV I kindof thought you would know as you generally know more than most about stuff anyway. I would've hated to see a future episode where you were having to sort out a common mistake. Even if this discussion was to help just one of your followers then I feel it's worth mentioning.
I think a lot of people who are interested in land rovers are also interested (possibly secretly) in Jimnys. I'd like to see how your land rover sensibilities view the jimny.
