Awesome video - but the cracks and the perishing on the tyres would have me changing them. Hairlines in the tread and the sidewalls.

looks like I'm getting bit of oil coming out the middle of my rear nearside wheel. could this be the seal?

[@trailerfitter2]

+Michael Barnes yes it could but make sure your brake system is not leaking.

Great vid! Did you change the battery of the smoke detector that was beeping in the background?

[@trailerfitter2]

yeah, they changed the whole lot because it was faulty. >.....

just had to do the back end of my 2001 defender had to replace both axles and half shafts because of wear on the splines is it worth doing the front as well as i still have some backlash when changing gear and also sometimes when i release the throttle. Most garages i go to say all defenders do this so can imagine how pissed i was when my truck went bang and i lost all drive in the middle of a busy intersection. Also are you on patreon would be happy to put something towards these awesome clips you do nothing else on you-tube comes close

[@trailerfitter2]

Drive flanges can go at the worst time too. We regularly change them on the latest Defenders that work for a living. Old Land Rovers are worn. Working land Rovers will show up weaknesss and they vary depending on work they do. Yes we are still on Patreon. Watch this weekend's video.
