Morning Doc and welcome back 😘 Just a suggestion, I have a Puma Defender, I took it to ‘Audiofile’ who have a channel on here and had a double din conversion, the work is sublime and the attention to detail outstanding, it’s one of the best upgrades I have, to be able to have a lovely big screen and Apple CarPlay is awesome. I have also fitted the rear door strut, my one also pops off the last door card clip, anyone found a solution yet? I fitted my one with the main piston bit inside the door card as per the manufacturers website and not the supplied instructions, still didn’t work ☹️ Another good install is the Mudstuff heater deflector, easy install and makes a big difference. Next time there’s a meet up I’ll show you my beast. Kind regards Tony
@thedoctorsgarage Жыл бұрын
Thanks Tony! I shaved a bit off the rear door card so it doesn’t pop off. I think it a common Problem. I have seen audiofiles work and they may well be the ones I’ll get in touch with re: sound system thanks!

Hey love the build, just noticed when you showed the steering damper, you've put both the rubber bushings on one side of the chassis mount point, need one either side with a washer!

Some good additions. You should also consider Uproar products, which are superb quality.

Agreed Jason, Scott has become a good friend since I began buying his excellent kit, not cheap, but easily the very best on the UK market by quite some margin. ❤ Uproar 4x4 !

Your defender is very smart. Personally I would remove the "defender" bonnet lettering. All you need is front mud flaps and side steps.

Thanks. I really need to sort out the Defender lettering whether that means replacing or removing, still deciding!

Hi, I noticed your Fox Shocks are mounted with the body nearest the ground, this seems counterintuitive as most have the body at the top ? I recall Alive fitted these,so is this the recommended fitting ?
@thedoctorsgarage Жыл бұрын
Yes alive fitted them like this with the open turrets. Makes no difference which way around they are I believe. Also helps keep them clean for all the off roading I do 😂

More to the point, WHY do you have Discoverer STT Pro Mud tyres on what is clearly an urban tractor that never ever sees even a Green lane let alone a muddy, rutted track? Your losing even more money in fuel economy.
