To be honest Teddy, I can't remember, but I think I just had to pay the cost to get it down and back. It would stall at the hint of an incline at low revs and was pretty useless offroad. It's much better now but still not as good as a 300TDi way down low in the rev range. Just have to keep the revs ...

Teddy, the replacement intercooler is essentially the same size as the original but of a substantially superior more open design that breaths a lot better. I've done about 50,000km with it and the chip fitted, but did get Bruce Davis to reconfigure the chip to provide more torque down the bottom ...

Teddy I have a Bruce Davis chip upgrade and I got the intercooler from Mike (Roverworks) in SA. I'm in Central Qld and the upgraded intercooler really makes a difference up here. I think Mike had a couple of intercoolers made to a special order and I'm not sure they are commercially available ...

Sicgq, I have one of the first 2002 upgrade model Defenders but still with Salisbury diffs. Done 76,000km and have only been back to the dealer for an ABS recall. It's been serviced every 10,000km by a non dealer Land Rover specialist and has performed faultlessly. It is fitted with Aerotech seats ...

They will touch on the top of the rear spring mounts and on the top of the front inner guards at full articulation.

Good idea to get the Disco rims offset though.

I have the same rim set up and tyres as Ben (IsuzuRover) on a Defender with a 50mm lift. Apart from having to cable tie the bottom of the front flares to the side rails, they rub less than 265/75's on Xtreme alloy rims.

Hope you find someting that works.

Defender Suspension

Currently have Kings coils with a 50 mm lift and Rancho 9000 shocks but this combination results in a very harsh ride and the suspension is very stiff overall. What do you blokes reckon is the best spring and shock combination for a Defender to give best allround performance. Any comments would be ...
