Land Rover - Wing Removal

A quick video to show how easy wing removal is on a landrover defender, this is not a definitive guide but gives you an idea what work is involved. This took roughly 2 hours with filming, most bolts need to be cut off!
I've removed the wing in preparation of carrying out some bulk head repairs, as you can see it's rather rusty! Next video will be bulk head repairs!

Thanks for the excellent video it's given me some guidance of how I am going to get mine off and tap out a dent

No worries, glad it's helped 😏

[@chrismitchell45]

Fantastic! This is next on the list. I’ll strip the wings off, then tow it to a welder 😂

[@mozsmancave2331]

It's an easy enough job just a bit awkward 🤣 why not have a crack at welding it yourself? 😉

Great video, hope your not gonna eat both those cherry bakewells 😂

[@mozsmancave2331]

No mate sorry 😅

How do you disconnect the side indicator?

[@mozsmancave2331]

All I did was remove the indicator and remove the bulb holder from the inside as I have standard 200tdi indicators on mine 👍🏻👍🏻

@@mozsmancave2331 Mine's a 1997, ex-MOD and the side indicators are half the size of yours. Does the lens slide forward?

[@mozsmancave2331]

@@gavinbroad1743 I think there's a clip on the top of the unit, I think if you slide a small flat blade screw driver or a feeler guage in a press the clip whilst pulling the unit out it should come out.

@@mozsmancave2331 It did and needed a push forward. Only moves an eighth of an inch, but then it can be pulled out. 👍

Typical landrover rust 😂

You mean everywhere? 🤣 Still going now 2 years in but it'll get there

@@mozsmancave2331 I’m doing a defender just now, just ordered a galvanized chassis, trying to find either a one piece pressed steel galvanized bulkhead or a stainless steel one…. I’m going to be galvanizing nearly everything 😂

@@livingoffgridinscotland you can have too much galvanized parts 😂
