Modifying a Land Rover Defender 90! - Part 3

[@TheSlimedshady]

Fantastic shiny bits 👌. Great channel. I hope you tided rust up the chassi we’re the gearbox member fits.

[@anonymousonlineuser6543]

Cool beans. You have a lot of cool trucks in the shop. It would be great if you could do a workshop tour and show the vehicles your garage is currently working on. It is interesting to see different mods and set ups that your customers have on their trucks.

[@lifes.projects]

They look amazing mate. When you opened the first disc I thought yeah thats big and when you said its for the rear i was like OMG!!! 😳

[@giuseppecazzavillan9733]

yesssssss more videos to fuel the defender addiction

[@Sharktooni]

I had my volume all the way up at the beginning and wow, nearly had a heart attack today haha

[@richardsadler8226]

Watched Sam and juice motors from the start and watched every episode he has done in turning these defenders in amazing cars...

[@squashedflyracing2310]

Love those calipers n discs..watching these vids is making my heart bleed my poor 90 keeps talking to me to spend some dough on her.. cant wait for the next vid.

[@davet9655]

Those calipers and discs are stunning.😍😍

[@richardsadler8226]

Them brakes look awesome mate and can’t wait to see what this build is like when you have finished it Great video as always Sam Looking forward to next instalment.. At this rate your gonna need a bigger workshop soon Keep up the great work mate

[@themartiandefender2128]

Love those calipers, just need a 💚 edition now !!

[@steenjinks7359]

Love your videos man. Just noticed that huge bit of rust on the chassis at 5:36 when you brought the first part of the exhaust under the Landy. It doesn't look like surface rust to me, it looks like serious rust that would potentially be an MOT fail. Seems crazy to be doing all this work when the vehicle isn't 100% structurally sound.

[@juicemotors]

It definitely looks worse than it is, we’ve tapped it and made sure it’s safe, legal and structurally sound. We’ve also given the chassis a full wax protection package 👌🏻

[@giff1669]

Appreciate your enthusiasm- looks like you enjoy your work 👍

[@juicemotors]

This isn’t work! This is a whole lot of fun, mixed with some difficulty 💛

[@urbanjungle9600]

Wow those brakes look awesome!

[@TheAlfiejohn]

I really have to stop watching these episodes as I know my car is in parts in your workshop. It is costing me money the more I watch as I want it all for my car. Great work Sam all the upgrades look amazing. How good will a 3 inch sports Exhaust sound. 🤔 can’t wait to see how this finishes. Still looking out for mine as well.

Finally someone who knows how to pack wheel bearings. Congratulations.

[@husq2100]

Actually the correct way is with oil...

[@WestCoastVisitor]

@@husq2100 No it isn't, as per manufacturers service instructions.

[@andicog]

Not sure what stringy grease he's using though? Looks like some sort of marine grease by the way it strings.

[@andicog]

@@husq2100 you can convert the hubs to run in oil by changing the rear grease seal to an oil seal and removing the half shaft oil seal from the stub axle, this allows Diff oil to reach the bearings but they usually run in grease on Defenders.

[@juicemotors]

I run Castrol Spheerol, it’s rated for extreme pressure and is totally WATERPROOF! 💧 amazing stuff that’s perfect for Land Rovers

[@jm7499]

Loving the yellow big brake kit! With the larger calipers is there any need to upgrade the master cylinder or booster? Cheers

[@juicemotors]

You’ll need a double diaphragm servo but that’s it!

[@garymitchell5566]

Great work looks awesome, could you give me a breakdown of the cost please. As I would like some of these jobs done on mine.

[@bealzibub4002]

Surly the Smokey engine and rusty chassis should be sorted before bolting all this stuff on?

[@juicemotors]

Smoky engine? It’s an 18 year old diesel Land Rover.... rusty chassis has been fully wax treated post works

[@bealzibub4002]

@@juicemotors you can’t just wax over rust. Under the gearbox mount is a really common area for rotting out and yours was no exception as can be seen when you fitted the new exhaust. Rust needs treating properly and the area painted before any wax treatment or it can just accelerate the problem. Also, one of my defenders is a 17 year old td5 with almost 150000 miles and it certainly doesn’t smoke like that so maybe it needs looking at a bit 👍🏻

[@juicemotors]

We use a wax and paint mixture which is specifically designed to tackle direct application to rust. We steam, degrease, sand and prepare the chassis’s on a weekly basis for this treatment. There is certainly nothing wrong with the engine in this 90, the smoke you see from the exhaust is a mix of loosing silencers, a new exhaust, sealants and a non serviced engine starting up for the first time in over 2 weeks after having heavy surgery. It’s perfectly healthy and drives flawlessly

[@bealzibub4002]

@@juicemotors fair enough. Having been a panel beater for over 20 years it’s not the way I would do it, but if it’s working for you then fair play 👍🏻

[@cordellej]

i got myself a set of used stock land rover 4 pot front calipers . im currently working on a mazda rx8 build im thinking if putting the land rover calipers on the front of the rx8. the rx8 is a relatively light car compared to the landrover defender ( puma) so if the mounting points are suitable i will be building a set of custom caliper brackets and seeing if this would actuallly work

[@jamzalmarri]

Great video. Them breaks are MAG! Where from? Please a link would make my precious happy. Thanks in advance.

[@blythewarland6688]

those brakes are awesome when will you be selling them and what sized rim is needed?

[@rberkel1]

What are you gonna fit for a master brake cylinder? Those new cilipers look awesome but you need a new master brake cylinder to match the increased fluid volume in the calipers unless the pistons are the same diameter ...

[@juicemotors]

The master remains the same, this kit is only suitable for double diaphragm servos. If you have a single diaphragm servo you’ll need to swap it out for one off a puma 110

[@gavhuddy]

Wow, the exhaust and them brakes/ calipers- amazing kit! Any chance of you doing a brake kit for the old D2 TD5?

[@juicemotors]

🤔 maybe!

[@nickweetman316]

Brilliant set of videos and very timely as I'm about to start on my 110 TD5 as soon as t'intercooler arrives. Where did you get the condenser from? Is it the same as the Puma version. Can't easily find a TD5 specific one.

[@ianashton886]

Brake fade definitely isn’t going to be a problem !!

[@defland110]

Hi, great report. concerning the brakes, what is the brand and where can we find them? do you need rims larger than 16 ‘?

[@juicemotors]

They’re our own brand! We can supply for 16s 😁

[@paul.i3606]

I wonder how the master cylinder will go with them?? Will it bottom out before full clamp is reached?

[@juicemotors]

No sir, this kit is designed for stock master cylinders but the servo has to be a double diaphragm unit, if it isn’t it’ll need to be swapped out

[@bugsaint]

Another great vid Sam, this one would be a Max Power centrefold :) Interesting you're fitting Genesis exhausts, been looking at them for a few months. Very interesting indeed...

Amazing keep up the great work. A question thou on mud tyres and steel wheels. Do you use balancing weights on front face of wheel? As I've never seen any on your builds.

[@juicemotors]

Thank you! We certainly use wheel weights on the inside front face. We also use galv weights for steels 🙂

[@juicemotors]

I use Castrol Spheerol - it’s WATERPROOF!!! I felt like Einstein when I found this stuff, can handle extreme pressure and can be fully submerged. Perfect for Land Rover wheel bearings

[@kpsupernut1]

I always wonder what the consequences of BIG changes might be 🤔 Those discs look epic, but surely they will put proportionally more strain on the mount holding onto the calliper? Are you just relying on the fact that LR over-engineered it’s axels to start with, or are these best fitted on HD axels?

[@michaelleigh2446]

somebody's got a super truck there, will the standard brake servo cope?

[@juicemotors]

It must have the double diaphragm servo to operate correctly

[@497adam]

Nice overspray on every other vehicle in the workshop.

[@erhardt1477]

Well... I get it ... your excited 😂 ... Question... how much will all this cost ..?🧐

[@ccnamasake]

@juice are those break discs usable in a disco 4?

[@ThePaultap]

The build is going well so far so well done!. I don't like to sound negative, but wouldn't it have been an idea to have washed the car fully before you started, that way any body work that needed addressing could have been spotted and your painter could have worked on minor dings when he was painting the windscreen frame.

[@juicemotors]

We can see corrosion a mile off, the paint bubbles on areas that need attention 💛

Confused here.. When you pulled the shaft oil ran out of the bearing.. so, inner shaft seal is gone thinks me.. then when you pulled the hub, the spindle and plate looked brand new? So has someone fitted a new spindle with no seal?

Hub seal gone leaking diff oil to the bearings. That’s the ABS ring 😇

@@juicemotors Thanks for the reply.. I have edited my comment at the end it said "with a deal".. should have said "no seal". the fact the oil was so clean and the plate/spindle/bolts all looked so clean made come to this conclusion?

Are drilled disks a risk for a Defender? Won’t detritus get stuck in the holes if used off road? I understand venting and groves, but does the drilled element add a degree of risk? Not criticising, I’m genuinely curious.

Pimped out and used off road? I very much doubt it.

Hi i have a mahoosive appoligy to make to u . I said that cars will fail the mot if the emmisions equipment has bn deleted or disabled . It is illeagal to tamper with emissions control equipment but as longs the vehichle dosent emit more than the legal limit of harmfull gasses . I was told that cars were failing mots for it . Like i say it is illegal to tamper with any emissions equipment but the vehicle if under the emissions limits itl pass its mot . However i was told by dvsa that they are trying to make it so that cars trucks etc that have bn tampered with will not pass an mot . Its a pity this is the case as these emissions controls strangle an engine . Uv got that landy sounding great and i bet itl be much more powerfull too . Thats quite the exhaust that u fitted . Looks and sounds great . Massive brakes too . Ud wonder if such vehicles should have these brakes as standard . . I dont want u to think im a hater and a trouble causer im really not . I just dont want folk getting in trouble . Ps have u ever heard how the last landy u rebuilt is getting on . It would be cool to find out how its performin for its new owner . U do great work .

Not complaining because I rlly like the design and colour but isn’t a rotor that big and callipers that big slightly a bit overkill for a TD5 I know you can get all 4 wheels spinning but still it doesn’t make it much more over 100mph like I said I really like the design

[@juicemotors]

Hi William, the brakes aren’t just to lock the wheels, we want progressive braking to stop in the shortest distance whilst retaining maximum control. These brakes bring the Defender to a dead stop quickly and give a great deal of confidence to the driver behind the wheel. You’ll have to try them!
