    What’s your current go to tire?

    I drove the Hercules Terra Trac AT in 215/85 for about 30k then 2 sets of the same in 235/85. They were a smallish 235 with more rounded shoulders than most AT tires, like almost an inch shorter than BFGs. Nice enough for daily driving and the occasional forest trails of western PA but not...

    Carling Start/run switch

    Good point. The older I get, the more I like simplicity.

    Carling Start/run switch

    When I did that in my Disco due to a faulty security system, the only bad side was it could be started in gear causing the truck to lurch forward/backward. That can end badly very easily. I don't know if a Defender has the same safety switch, but it's worth considering.

    Help in Lake Stevens, WA?

    Hi all, Is anybody here in the Lake Stevens area? My college-age son is living with my sister-in-law there for the school year and is having issues with their older Jeep Wrangler. He's learned to be handy growing up with rovers, but my in-laws have no tools to fix their Jeep. Let me know if...

    I’m building a 109 from my friend’s parts bin, so that will be a perfect addition. Let me know the postage, and I’ll send it along. We can pm all the particulars. Thanks so much.

    Thanks! Sadly, I’m on the opposite side in Pittsburgh. I may be able to figure something or I can cover the shipping if you don’t mind the hassle.

    Old Style Dash Top (10" Vents)

    Do you still have my address from last time? Maybe I need to set up a frequent shopper card with you.

    If you have to take an entire Defender axle with good 3.54 gears, I’d go in on it for the guts inside as I’m trying to convert my 109 to the easier gearing. Happy hunting!

    Old Style Dash Top (10" Vents)

    It looks like I might need that dash after spending the day working on my truck. I’m in for it if you still have it.

    +2" rear braided stainless brake flex lines for a D1?

    Thanks for the suggestions; both sound good though the Redhorse stuff is certainly a bit dearly priced. I was thinking about having some made locally but I just saw Trevor at Rovahfarm has a complete set for around $65. We’ll see.

    +2" rear braided stainless brake flex lines for a D1?

    It would seem you can't just buy the rears, but I already have the fronts. Anybody have a spare pair looking for a new home?

    I would gladly take the 3 round amber and 2 round clear tail lights. And if those 2 black lights to the right are license plate lights, I'd take 1 of those, please. Shipping will be to 15228 for reference. Thanks! Greg
