Great one! It's always a pleasure seeing the Defender climb so effortlessly!

[@lror]

Thanks man im glad you like it 👍

[@psychology2217]

The sound of that green monster makes me soooo happy 😃. I don’t think most people appreciate how well you negotiate that clutch mate! Cheers

[@lror]

Thanks mate, I too enjoy her tick over noise 😊

[@steely1neverwane]

I haven't seen one of those X-links for probably a decade. It seems to work well. Great video fellas.

[@lror]

Thanks man. Yeah the xlink works real good, changed the 80 completely.

[@luke_atthat]

[@Cicada4WD]

Good line up and mint tracks 👌

[@Cicada4WD]

Love seeing the 80 wheel. Such a beast 💪

[@lror]

Hey Steve the 80 is a beast with a good pilot.

[@ansilvlog307]

Great video 💪❤❤❤❤

[@hsvh3hummer942]

So sad I’ll never get the chance to wheel with the Big LS Pooy again 😢 Great video though 👍

[@lror]

All good things come to an end. Im sure his new patrol will be a ton of fun and he wont shy away from many tracks anyway.

[@offroad4x462]

Great video.

[@lror]

Good times 👍

[@karlgee3252]

Great video and good way to start Sunday morning. Just wondering where are these tracks?

[@lror]

Thanks mate, tracks are in Menai

[@haydo5l292]

Hey mate quite question know the first hill at the top have you seen the old cart I am been trying to work out what they used to do out there awesome videos to mate keep them coming

[@lror]

thanks mate, yeah ive seen it but im not sure exactly what it was for. Most likely they used to mine something or other in the area.

[@haydo5l292]

@@lror it's awesome how they would of got that out there

[@totobyafrica847]

Your front suspension setup is absolutely incredible, the stability you have is quite impressive. Have the stock radius arms limited your travel at all and would you consider the superior arms? And do you have any experience/ thoughts on the X-deflect torsional sway bar offered by Foundry 4x4 in the UK? I've been trying to find a solution to revive the on road manners of my D110 as now it's my daily driver (engineered for 35's) but when travelling to the tracks on 37" creepys it's quite a nerve racking experience on the road.

[@lror]

Thanks mate, when i designed the placement of the coilovers it was more for stability than max flex. The diff end is almost over swivel balls taking away potential articulation but giving stability. Which was a good compromise with 14" coilovers effectively giving me around 12.5" equivalent in the old setup. The superior arms would probably allow easier movement but running the older narrow RA's in wider mounts does work well. I dont have experience with x-engineering sway bar but they do look good and i like how easy they would be to disengage and re-engage. I just wonder if you have to be on a perfectly flat surface. Haha when i ran creepy crawlers on the disco i found on road at around 20psi worked well but offroad i needed to be around the 6psi mark to get them to work well.

[@totobyafrica847]

@@lror Oh I thought it was a kingpin fab kit? I must've missed that in your previous video. I've actually recently purchased those swivel balls they were a bit of an effort to find but I'm quite keen to fit them on! I've sent them an email asking about it too, they're around $750 +GST and import fees from the UK. I don't have beadlocks unfortunately, I've only ventured to the 8 psi but I'm extremely impressed with them so far. They were great at Yalwal on the rocks, I haven't had the best luck with mud though but I guess that isn't the intention of the tyre. The treps do look quite appealing.

[@lror]

@@totobyafrica847 no it's not a kit but custom made to how i wanted it. I wasn't aware of kingpin selling coilover kits, i only know of 1 Land Rover he did front coilover conversion on after i finished mine and thought that was custom as well. He is also doing his own 110 with rear coilovers and i think he will do the front as well. He does nice work so if he is doing a kit for you its probably going to work well. Yeah nice, how are the creepys holding their bead at 8psi for you? I had trouble with mine at 10 psi without beadlocks.

[@totobyafrica847]

@@lror I really do need to say thank you for the reply's, especially on your previous walk-through video! I can't state how helpful these are. I'm not the most familiar with the Kingpin kits unfortunately, I assumed they were a kit as I keep seeing the red 110 posted all over HMLR. It seems like he's able to get a similar level of articulation to an X-Link I'm curious about the stability though. I'd love to be able to take the time to learn and fabricate myself but I'm a bit restricted tooling and workshop wise. I'm currently living on a Navy base and we are offered a workshop it's not really suited to the time intensive tasks unfortunately. And my D110 has a disco 3.9 donk fitted which is quite light, I didn't have any issues at 8 psi although I was being extremely cautious and it was really just to see if I could bag the side walls (I don't know about you but mine are stiff as shit), more of a one off than anything. It was just a playaround at the yalwal rock gardens as I'm local to the area. I'm definitely most comfortable with them around 12 - 14psi. My Dad has a FC101 with 36" simex's and he hasn't had any issues at all running similar pressures though he's quite a reserved driver. I've always assumed that it may be due to weight? With both of our Landy's coming in quite light. Again thank you for the response!

[@michaelnoyes4817]

Great to see you back at it, when are you sharing your how to vids?

[@lror]

Thanks man working on them, hopefully not too much longer.

[@grantwatts681]

So essentially the Patrol and Cruiser have heavily modified motors and suspension just to keep-up with the Defender.

[@stevenwilluweit3411]

Another great vid, were the Patrol and Cruiser auto

[@lror]

Thanks man, the Patrol is auto while the Cruiser is manual with tc reduction gears and 5.38 diff gears.

[@PietroH53]

It seems as though you just set the revs at 800rpm and point it!! And it just goes....

[@lror]

Haha i wish it was that easy... Just close my eyes and hang on for the ride 🤣

[@jasonlavelle3293]

You guys should t up with 4wd 24/7 for a weekend trip

[@lror]

Maybe one day, it would be fun.

[@mrtango4034]

[@roquettedu76-yt-77]

De 2:31 a 3:32 c’est le défender

[@markvreeswyk747]
