Nice job as always. Would benefit from mudflaps and some rustproofing though!

[@martincunniff4514]

Brilliant love 300tdi engines take them anywhere super reliable if looked after great work guys

[@glennbayley5863]

That has turned out to be a very nice land rover nice work gentleman. 👍👍🇬🇧👏

[@MrNippon510]

Not a single penny in hand to afford these kinda machine but watching as if trying to get one tmmrw .😢. But it is a pleasure to watch..

[@shropshireladoutdoors743]

Nice upgrade but could do with some more tlc and clean up the underside and suspension

[@patrickflanagan8008]

My sort of Land Rover, absolutely great. You do top class work, well done.

[@robertminato2706]

i loved this build!Well done.

[@exileinderby51]

Great conversion and I want one! Enjoy your break.

[@jerrygreene7139]

Thanks for showing the puppies! I really enjoyed this build being an old Army guy! Don’t know if you take requests, but I would love to see a build on a L322 or Classic Range Rover. Enjoy your break!

[@teamshedracing1599]

Excellent video as usual guys. Would you consider a short one showing how to adjust the mechanical fuel pump (more in depth). I have a Disco 300tdi with a boost pin and ring but feels like it lacks a little. Thanks again for a great series

[@stuartdenty3163]

Exudes quality Sam. Great content too. Thank you.

[@lesthiele4921]

That turned out perfectly once again, you seem very happy with what you do, enjoy the holiday, best regards from Australi.

[@ScoutTheDefender]

Great following the project guys! Nice video

[@garypoulton7311]

I am about to do this on my MOD 110, am going with a long bellhousing R380, great videos, and hope I am as pleased with mine as you were with this 90. Have a good holilday

[@ant8121]

Certainly done a lovely job guys

[@stuartjones7032]

Great build Sam!

[@hammyh1165]

For a basic usable Landy you really can't beat a TDI . I love my own one and am currently building a new engine for it so it can get a few more decades of life.

[@islandblacksmith]

lovely machine!

[@pauldent3059]

That engine sounds sweet

[@grantmckendry3323]

Great work. Those that know will know. Much prefer seeing mods like these than the usual bling people keep adding to their defenders.

[@kserumgard]

Awesome video, more please of the wolf/defender upgrades 🤙🏽

[@squadmeta]

Excellent job. 300 was my favourite engine but so many were lazy from the factory, I've adjusted a lot over the years but like you say you need to know what you're doing and how it works. A combination of clicks, angle, and some sanding. Go too mad and the EGT's go through the roof!

[@alfonsschilmoeller9225]

alles schön und gut ich wäre mit dem reinigen des Fahrzeug angefangen Unterboden Trockeneis strahlen Rost entfernen und versiegeln Bremsträgerbleche ersetzt usw.

[@caprimen]

Nice work - but can you do a short video on how you adjusted the fuel pump but in greater detail .

[@tim8505]

Nice video! The previous owner might have already done that on mine... Is it possible to find out how much turns he did?

[@deadbird699]

Love the channel!! What happened to Big Red really looking forward to seeing the 40s! The biggest Rover ever!!!

[@juicemotors]

We’re having BIG trouble with suspension angles! Think I’ve sorted it, December it’ll be finished and aired!

[@kerly900]

Great video guys! How many turns did you apply to the injection pump after yellow marking? Was it 1.5 turns? Thanks.

[@stevenmwamba58]

I really love what you do...i ve been working on my defender for some time now and I would love it to come out like they way you do your...but it' just unfortunate that am low on my budget🥺 what do you do with those parts you take out when doing the conversions...i would love to reuse the parts 🙏🙏

[@christopherastbury-mg2iz]

Fab Videos Lads, very informative and full of energy, enthusiasm and fun. I have a 1987 110 V8 with LPG conversion. Due the poor availability of LPG in Northumberland. I have bought a complete Disco 1 MOT chassis failure. I aim to take out the V8, and place in the 300TDI engine, reconditioned gearbox, transfer box, etc. What do you think? 😊

[@Jason-cl8hk]

Nice fan! I forgot to ask, how’s your new Service Manager from Harwoods working out - enjoying the role?

[@laurentfisher4284]

Excellent very nice job 👏👏👏👍🫡

[@simongriggs4351]

Have found you guys in the last few weeks love the bild. All ways Keep them under Rapes then its what was that 😋thanks have a good holiday

[@graham-martin5847]

i just wanna set about the whole thing with a sand blaster i am ocd when it comes to rust lol

[@keith6360]

What's the transfer box ratio? 1.4 or 1.6?

[@philipsgeorge9374]

Why not a LR4 discovery next

[@transitpassenger3948]

Finished it!! Sаm, what kind of yellow scooter is flashing around you?) I would really like to see a custom Defender 130. Hello guys, it's great that they finished it, I thought it would be for a long time! )

[@juicemotors]

It’s my Piaggio Ape! A great tool for shows riding round!

[@sf017s4]

Is there any issue with the air box sitting directly above the exhaust manifold? I spose in UK it's probably needed to warm the air lol. Respect to you all, may She Rest In Peace eternally. Long live the King.

[@whosyourmate8292]

What's this called? A drum. 🤣👌

[@williamamorim9897]

@Juicemotor do you sell to Brazil I want to buy one

[@CaptPegg]

What fan is it?

[@jonarnejorgensen1179]

The fan mounting is crap. :) I did the same to my RRC. The blades flexed at some point and the blades hit the radiator, breaking the fan blades and the radiator. It is much better to mount it with a little distance to the radiator, in case the blades flex. :)

Nice Job!🤜 Revotec sistem cooling?…

[@erhardt1477]

Well… One more question… Is that road legal in the UK with bolts and bits sticking out of the bonnet ..?🤔

[@malikkhan8979]

It is as it's a classic.

[@John-dz5dv]

A great conversion. What are you going to be doing with the actual car the engine came out of? Putting a newer engine transplant in? That could be interesting to see, what engine would you put in?

[@TheProco2020]

I’d like to see a restomod, would a BMW engine fit and a leather interior but leave exterior?

[@John-dz5dv]

@@TheProco2020 Or just leave everything standard n just do the engine mod. A real street sleeper

[@TheProco2020]

@@John-dz5dv True but I like the idea of an exterior that shows some battle scares and you’re not afraid to park up anywhere and maybe push some gates open, with a luxurious interior and all mod cons.

[@ricksehfeld3092]

Hey when will we hear from you again?

[@juicemotors]

We don't have a video yet but are swapping an LS soon!
