Rebuilding a neglected Land Rover Defender 90 - Part 9

[@peterhuijsmans2148]

I love your work. Not always my taste but that is what a Defender is, you can make it as you like and enjoy it. There is so much you can do to customise your Defender and that is what I like, no Defender is the same.

[@ridgerunner420]

Very sharp. The wheels and tires are great, and the arches look good. You’ve saved a vehicle from going to the junk yard, and built it into a very capable utility vehicle that you can drive daily. Love it

[@Mothership110]

Castor correction radius and trailer arms would be a good idea, and prop spacer, rool bar extension and larger bump stops. Dont forget to adjust your 'lock to lock' hub bolts, otherwise you'll reck your tyres on the radius arms

[@TheCaterham6]

No end on the spend...excellent series thanks Juice Motors.

[@ewanstewart8011]

Loving the new workshop! Great space and light. Fantastic looking arches and wheels would love to own it!

[@TheDarrenc1973]

You have so much passion for what you do... so nice to see....

[@mickymouse3491]

Your new workshop is looking great. Congratulations 👍👍👍

[@chrisg4270]

Looks fantastic. The workshop looking fabulous as well. Loads of room. 👏👍

[@davidwhite4915]

This Landie looks cooler and cooler and cooler with each video. A superb job

[@73xug0]

This is actually amazing. Was going to buy a Standard Defender a few months ago but looking at this series, it's a wonderful project to commit to.

I think it looks amazing, can't wait for the next episode.

[@christhejock5618]

New shops looking good 👍👍

[@elliottsmith8387]

Loving the look of this Defender and can’t wait to see it progress further. Plus the new workshop is looking awesome, much better space and lighting for filming videos too. Keep up the good work.

[@juicemotors]

So much more enjoyable to work in too! Thanks for your comments!

[@rossstapleton]

Congrats on the new work shop! Nice space!! The defender is coming along class mate!!

[@jamesray3920]

Using a bottle neck jack on axle will help open up room to remove & install springs 😊

[@mikesmith-yc3os]

absolutely amazing job Sam well done !!

[@TinyTruckingTV]

Another episode and gone again so quickly ! Love the weekly updates and my how this formerly unloved D90 improves each week

[@gordonhalliday2925]

That is looking so good. Would love to see what you could do with a 130. Proper overland beast. Awesome matey keep them coming.

[@RogerM88]

Time to upgrade the brakes too. Nice build.

[@matthewwhitney8103]

Everyone's got a tip . I bet none of you could do what he does 😂. Great videos mate keep them coming 👍

[@juicemotors]

Legend. Everyone’s an expert... 👀🤣

[@ridef0rlife]

Like. There are a lot of professionals in this comment section

[@johnirons9223]

Feels like weeks since your last video!! Thank God it's here!! Could you blacken the wheel weights, think that would top those wheels off beautifully!!

[@andrewellison1203]

Absolutely brilliant job you have done on that Land Rover not too high hi absolutely superb how much would you want for that motor

[@themartiandefender2128]

New workshop looks immense !!

[@kcw9313]

Looks insane - love the preview here

[@pardeepkoasha8075]

Looks fantastic mate. I fitted exactly the same tyres with Mach 5 wheels to my dcpu this weekend. I went for the spectre spats but with standard suspension at the front and -2 at the back. Fantastic job on this 90.

[@PS56]

I’m loving your new workshop, it’s so much brighter & we can see much more detail, I was nearly going to ask if you’d got a new camera, the wheels, lift & those wide tyres make the landy look way more aggressive, I can’t wait to see all the front end upgrades you’ve got planned, great work again 👍

[@ThePaulHerring]

She’s looking a beast already. Videos just keep getting better ⚡️Thanks Sam.

[@martinewest5640]

I would like to see all the underside cleaned derusted and painted before all the cosmetics added.

[@NAMIBIAFOREX]

please link where you bought the arches and hood will be super helpfull if you link where you buy the parts you install

[@elvisd66]

Love what you're doing i have a 89 getting ready to follow you

[@connalmurray-cassel8716]

Great vid mate!! Keep up the good work

[@janmalliaazzopardi5342]

All those toys 😍 Loving the series 1 and 110 , hoping you are going to build them someday

[@gibsonethirty2836]

G'Day. I only have 3 things to say. 1) Please look after your back. I didn't and was medically discharged from the army with a prolapsed disk by doing something similar, lifting to heavy an Item up off the ground and on to a Unimog tray. Lower the lift to an easier position to put the wheels on yeah. 2)WOW, mate, the workshop...AMAZING. You now have plenty of room and builds should be really enjoyable now. 3)Britparts........yeah nar... the less said about them the better. Mate you will soon learn that one is best served by staying well away from Britparts as much as humanly possible. Very few and far between are the "parts" fit for service from Britpart, more so with any part having a rubber component too it. Other than that, looking good. Thanks

[@whitacrebespoke]

I had shitpart 2inch lift. First MOT after fitting the MOT man failed it as one rear spring had a bow in. Old man Emu or standard springs since.

[@juicemotors]

Hey 👋 thanks for the thoughts and comments 😁 as a Defender specialist, there are many items from Birtpart that get a bad wrap, and for good reason. I know what parts are unusable and what parts are good to use, personally I’ve never experienced bad reviews from their suspension but have when using Terrafirma etc. The workshop is much bigger now!! So you should see some very cool cars start to roll off the production line 😁 notes about my back, I’ll make sure to take care 🙏🏻 Best

[@thomasfmitchell]

LOOKS AMAZING!!!

[@adamchant2590]

New work shop look well cool 😎 👌 can't wait for the amazing builds out of there 😉👍

[@MartTheMadScientist]

looks epic dude an i love the wheel offset looking forward to seeing the rest of the build

[@kevanharding9716]

Lookin good ....lovin the workshop 👍 ,good to see doggo helpin out too.

[@anthonyward7406]

Great video as always. Look forward to the next one 👍🏼

[@tp13827]

Love this video. Cant wait to see the final !

[@markpeacock6345]

I am no expert, but you might want to look into a wireless microphone. Cheers.

[@ElmerJFudd-oi9kj]

Oh yes please let him do that!

[@juicemotors]

Understood & ordered

[@mudpanther6079]

Was literally going to say the same , hes sorted the music audio already but now i find im turning it up when he's at a distance

Mud Panther #MeToo

[@graemehunter5403]

definitely

[@edwardmilsom4760]

Hi Sam, I can see where this is going and I think a good mod that will benefit this build will be fitting the "Mud Shields" from Gwynlewis4x4 , and I'd like to see what they look like 🤔 I've decided to go with standard lift with Fox shocks, Eibach springs and tubular turrets. Getting there and I'm going for Buzzweld as well.

[@jamespb93]

Loving this build! Would love to own a defender. My Grandad owns a defender 90 that be bought from Severn Trent before he retired from them and it's still running strong. He's also got a 1992 3 door Disco that is going strong too. The other day he told me he needs to sort the rear sliding windows as they are rattling around just like on this 90. Told him I'd show him the video when you get round to sorting 😉

[@Jabber-ig3iw]

I don’t normally like big wheels and a lift, but damn that looks good.

[@simeraine]

Absolutely fantastic videos. Love the look of the truck and always look forward to the next one. Keep it up! Mines going in for a 2" lift imminently and also deep dish modulars 🤙

[@BunnyTJ]

That looks so cool I love the aggressive stance!

[@TheCynabal]

Golden doggo!! liked and subscribed! awesome landy build too :)

[@EsBeeQue]

Mate I loved it, just confirmed that I will get an old defender and make it up like yours..👏💪

[@MultiSwatts]

Such a nice setup, the workshop is so clean and bright unlike mine 😂 love the defender starting to take shape now

[@GeordsYouTube]

Top content as always, the wheels look the business!

[@teameliteuk2023]

The defender is looking sick love the mods, it’s going to look a beast when it’s finished. Great work keep it up 👍

[@jeffsmith771]

It's coming together just superb

[@matttarling6347]

Looking champion matey,looking forward to the next👍👍👍

[@gunder3]

As an expat living in Melbourne, thanks for the vids.

[@wihanjoubert2797]

Looks Awesome mate. At the end of the build, could you do a video summarising the prices of all the parts/accessories/services and where you got that from? Would be amazing.

[@mykweb]

This is savage. Looks amazing. Making me want a td5 now.

[@TheAVIANI]

Excellent content as always!! Keep up the good work!

[@petermurphy538]

Never wanted a land rover more great content as always 🚙🚙🚙

[@MackGB3506]

Pubs have re-opened and theres a new video .... YES!

[@Oilatumify]

I bought 5x those wheels and tyres the kms painted the lettering white looks great

[@mlt5371]

Wich wheels did you buy? I cant find them in the Internet.

[@RupertBear412]

looking good mate - if you re going to off road it might be worth getting some sort of clear wrap to protect the paint

[@Ricky-cl5bu]

Nice job

[@optimeenergy2869]

Sweet ride man

[@markb1487]

It's all personal opinion, especially with the comments here.. But the hard work can't be faulted.. I did my apprenticeship at Porsche many years ago, then main dealers, then 2 garages myself.. Great work. Great video.

[@juicemotors]

Thanks Mark! I appreciate your open mind, it’d be a boring world if all of us hD the same opinions! Thanks for your support! 💛

[@LucaPepe-fv7bh]

hi congratulations excellent work I wanted to know what size the mudguards are and what brand?

[@Defender-Guy]

I suggest the wheels be balanced using the stick-on weights inside the rim. They look much better and are a lot less likely to be dislodged during off-roading. They can also be painted to match the wheels.

[@jetpacjimmy]

Yep, looks better all the time 👍

[@christopherspencer3124]

Great video, would love to see some on the series land rovers too. Do you sell these land rovers when you’ve finished them?

[@jm-garage06]

Awesome looking project. Can you please confirm what make and model the front bumper is. Loving the content. Cheers.

[@martinrothwell8966]

Have you checked the full articulation when on full lock? When the back passage side wheel is fully articulated, full lock to right, does the front driver's side touch the bodywork? Will you need to change the speed drive? Looks Good.

[@WhiskeyGulf71]

Going for a Bowler Tomcat kind of look with those wheels & arches !

[@felixcoutdoors]

Do you sell the land rovers on after or keep it??

[@cheesepizza87]

By the sounds of things a lot are “client” cars, not sure whether he’s part of a father an son business (in LR repairs) but specialising in defenders

[@mlt5371]

Wich wheels are those? Ich cant find them, but they look great! I love to watch this rebuild! Looks great !

[@Soufiane.R]

Great content as usual, the tires look pretty dang cool.

[@tomashervert1465]

Hi, what is the size of the wheels? Thank you

[@stephenellis6651]

What size of wheels and tyres did you fit?

[@darellkettley6622]

Great work loving the new wheels 👌

[@davewhite1975]

Great progress on the build . What are you ding about the gap between the inner front arch and the wheel arch ? It'll fill up with mud , road dirt and water thrown up by the tyres and will cause premature rot , which we know these vehicles suffer with .

[@juicemotors]

Factory shaved arches to have the liners

[@rrp38dse]

Another great video and content, keep up the good work! A tip: now that the workshop is bigger and it has echo, it’s hard to understand what you are saying when you are away from camera. You should consider getting a microfone 👍🏻

[@juicemotors]

Ordered 💪🏻😎

[@RoadhogRNA]

Very Nice Job!!!!

[@chriscaton1760]

the new workshop is epic!!🛠💪 whats the story with the series one 80”, any plans for it🤔

[@neilmeredith7045]

The 80" will probably get the full Kahn body kit treatment, air ride, a candy flip flop paintjob and the obligatory tow bar delete.

[@jimmcdougall3750]

Hi putting bigger wheels and tyres on, will you have to change the speedo. The new workshop looks great don't get it too dirty.

[@Smilojack]

Solid content 👌 , new sub from South Africa

[@yrigoyen0108]

Can you please tell me the size of your wheels?

[@donaldridley7826]

When you put the big tyres on did you think to lower the hoist to reduce the manual lift?

[@petermiddo]

I was there, screaming at the tv I watch youtube on, "you know that hoist has got a down button???"

[@balajiiyengar4]

No offence, I liked the original wheels, the beauty of a LR is when it looks original and classic in my opinion.

[@juicemotors]

No offence taken, I also liked the original wheels... But also I prefer the new wheels

[@janmalliaazzopardi5342]

New wheels are killer! Can always revert to original if you want so no harm done... just awesomeness 👌🏻

[@grahamwest1079]

Workshop looks full already ha ha. If I had a hoist I'd certainly lower it to fit the tyres as I know how heavy those are you need to look after your back.

[@juicemotors]

Think I’ll adopt a different tactic next time 😅 I’ve lowered the lift before but I find my back is at more risk as I’m bent over trying to lift etc. Think I’ll grab another person to assist

[@Martyntd5]

I'm not a fan of those arches to be honest and I think the wheels are a little big with too much offset for a daily driver. At least for my tastes.

[@juicemotors]

Martyntd5 no problem Martyn! I think it looks great! The world would be boring if we all had the same opinions 😁 thanks for watching! 🤙🏻

[@Martyntd5]

@@juicemotors Yeah, I agree. I think it's the body-colour of the arches which looks odd to me. I've got a 90 in exactly the same colour - is it Epsom green? ...and it does have matching arches - I think that was standard on the county models? Anyway, with big boots I think I just prefer the look of contrasting black arches. It's all a matter of taste. Loving the yellow shocks and springs though. :)

[@gen1c8rs88]

@@juicemotors I would have chose a 16x8 -25mm wheel 😏😋😉

[@russellfranklin1525]

Do you have to get the speedo adjusted when fitting this size from standard?

[@harleycg75]

I have 265/75/16 and speedo is 5 to 7 mph out now

[@elvedinsaliji3257]

U ar great men nice work

[@Simonandisla]

Looking nice. What are you using to fill in the gap left behind inside the wing from when you took the old arches off ?? Like the shocks n springs and bumper looks grand 👍

[@michalis7134]

@Juice Motors what brand are these wheel arches......btw NICE JOB MATE

[@riccardopaleari]

I'd like to know that too| Best arches I saw around so far...wondering if they look good on a 110 with Tibus portals

[@harryjones94]

Yep - body coloured arches do it for me.

[@telfordpetrolhead]

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again it’s scary how this how I’d build my dream build that may change a little when the roof rack goes on but so far it 💯 me

[@filippomariaberio317]

Love the super gaz look, but does them handle good? Wonder which kind of wheel are those…wolf? Thanks, beautiful build as usual. Keep going with this incredible works.

[@bikerman6907]

[@andirobi2180]

[@MrCocopops2000]

The build looks great, keep it going. Also for future videos can you list the part links so if someone needs to look at them or buy them it's much easier?

[@chrisgreenwood271]

I think it may actually float with those tyres fitted 😀

[@craigmackenzie4719]

Got a question I fitted the same 2 inch kit to mine ... I’m running standard radius arms is that fine for 2inch ?? ... I have 2 inch spring spacers to fit take it to 4 inch will I need 3 degree radius arms for 4 inch ? .... truck looks sick love the colour too

I get so exited when I see new videos loll
