Well today saw a new air filter and plugs getting put in. It looks like the new fuel pump from Lucky8 and the tune up has solved the hard start issue I was having(fingers crossed). I've been one happy camper since I found out they could get all the repair parts for the ROW 110's.

More work on the seats 90% on that solution. I'm hoping to have the fronts done this week. Then I have duty all weekend so not much else will get done till after SCARR.

 

Of course 2 sets of speakers showed up so I need to finish up the door panels to take them.

 

This is my absolute favorite year and colour scheme for the 110. Beautiful truck!

 

Robert thank you Sir!

Had a few parts show up from my friends at Lucky8 LLC

A complete LED marker light kit with the flasher and new mounting hardware by WIPAC. No more bad bulbs and worn out contact issues for me. Nothing better than having lights that work I really like that the kit comes with a new adjustable flasher so I can get the turn signals working just right.






Then like many Defender owners I love the look of the Heritage Grill, and like many others I hate the price of it. Even used they seem to be around $300. Luckily Justin at Lucky8 came across a much more reasonable option by BritPart for me. A stainless steel black powder coated Heritage style Grill. I can't wait to get it on the Defender. It looks great and the best part was the price.

 

That looks good!

 

Thanks Juan

 

looks great. good to hear that they found something
this is where I bought for custom.... customcargrills.com - Custom Car and Truck Grills - Mesh Grill Sheets and More!

 

Thanks for that link Dusty I forgot we had talked about that.

 

New britpart Heritage grill going in. Thanks again to www.lucky8llc.com for getting this ordered in for me.


Old, crusty and broken....




New and sexy....




The two side by side....





A few notes. For the britpart heritage grill to go in, you will need to drill out the rivets on the Land Rover badge on the grill surround. Also if you have the british anti-theft secondary hood lock it has to go as well. You will also have to add 4 new small holes for mounting on the top of the grill surround. Nothing difficult just good to know going into this. To use the original plastic mounting lugs I found 1/4 20 3/4" long stainless steel socket cap screws and washers work perfectly. You will need a total of 8 screws and washers for this. I will update once I get the top done with sizes for those.

For now a few teaser pics.

 

So I put the Boost wheels on that I brought back from SCARR with 235/85/16 General LT tires. Not as aggressive looking as the MTR's but during the day to day driving they should have much better road manners. Also I have the MTR's on my old wheels to throw on for off road time. I'll be re-doing the Boosts when I spray the truck and do something about my ugly lug nuts at the same time lol.
