new to this forum , not to landrovers ex army driver , driving defenders . will try to get my head around this so I start making sense

 

Most of us here in the US would like to be driving Defenders.... welcome.

 

im here in western australia I drive a 99 v8 disco low ks , 235/85 16 muddies , 2 inch lift < for now > dual batts uhf big spotties engine bay air compressor arb bullbar roof mounted dvd player hooked up to the deep cycle batt and a few bush scratches < or story scratches as I call them > and I did the lot myself , and I do landscaping for a living , and I wish I was driving a nice new defender

 

When you can get to it post some pix of your truck, plenty of interest here for dual batteries, heavy duty mods, etc.

 

ill post some photos soon , the dual batt is 115 ah in a batterty box hooked up to an anderson plug . so I can take it in or out . It sits in the luggage bay . The car side of things has 15mm wire with the other end of the plug going through the roof lining , down behind the dash through a gromit and connects to an isolator and then to the drive batt . the isolator odviously seperates the batts wen engine off and connects for charge when on . it has a monitor that ive put on the dash wich gives me voltage on both batts . And you can with a button hook up both batts for 15 seconds if your drive batt is flat and you start off the other battery . Very good set up that wasnt a kit . the good thing is I can take the batt out for showers etc and jump other cars if need be . Sure everyone knows this but as Im new to this forum im trying to get used to it .

 

MAN I WANT THAT DEFENDER! DAMN the US gov.
