whoooooooooops nearly forgot about these
thanks for looking
well the axle cases and cvd's are fitted and while i was at it i thought i would try to do something different
so thanks to having too much time on my hands (6 days off :P )
i decided tofit a 2 speed tranny
to be honest i thought it was going to be more trouble than it was the only things i had to mod was the interior a bit and shorten the rear top links
so here are the pics
so after that decided to get the electrics mounted quite pleased with where they go and should clear most water
more bits to fit later
thats all for now folks
well done a few more bits yesterday so here you go
filler neck courtisey of ikke
rcmodelex bumper coursity of dave :P

Looking good! Nice wheel/tire combo.
I love the way those Mud Pluggers look!
This is one Great build Cossack!
sweet build, I like the front bumper
thanks for the comments guys its comments like that makes it all worth while
done a few little bits yesterday but still waiting on the shell coming back to finish the lights
I think i saw this driving around in my living room the other day, Cool to see you on here, Keep the updates coming !
really nice build! cant wait to see the paint job.
hi chris yep thats the one lol
i have sorted the gearbox out now with a new set of gears so sweet now
the paint i am afraid is going to be nothing special just the same again as i love the colour
got everything wired up now including 2 front fogs and a 3 racing winch
light buckets fitted
battery tray made
stumbled across this guy at the local market and with a bit of trimming i think he looks ok
then it was time to do the checker plate
now for the real pain of wiring 5 sets of lights

well here are the final pics before it gets wrecked tomorrow
here are the pics with lights a pain to get them but most turned out ok
indicators front only could not catch the rears
and finally rear/brake lights
thanks for all the kind comments from everyone and also making me welcome on here
regards ian
I can't get over this build!
What a top notch job!
Nice build! I've been wanting a set of wheels like those.
Everytime I see this Defender, I just think WOW Fantastic
Whats with all of the removed images?
i see them all my friend
Awesome defender, I'd be happy to have it parked in my garage
Better to seek forgiveness rather than ask for permission.
well finally got a few more bits fitted today
still have the new wheels and tyres to fit
Super work
well finally got the wheels and tyres fitted i think i like them
not sure how much they are going to catch so might have to chop the arches out and fit some dingo flares
well hopefully this is it (till rc4wd bring out some more bits i dont need )
thanks for looking and all the kind comments
cheers ian
The wheels look great,I have always liked your Defender as its different
Just WOW...This is so awesome.
