			<content:encoded><![CDATA[I have a hard top with a full rear door and I would like to remove it for summer. Looking for a usable tailgate (lower tailgate assembly?) so items won't roll out of the back. As long as it's functional and not super rusty. My rover is limestone, but I can probably paint up any old tailgate to work. Thanks, Chris]]></content:encoded>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[Purchased this 1991 Defender 110 pickup several years ago with the intention of restoring it and using as my every day driver. Completed a full mechanical restoration/upgrade in spring of 2025. Every mechanical and electrical component of the truck has either been replaced, restored, and/or upgraded. Under 2000 miles on the freshly installed (new) engine. Over $50,000 in parts installed on the truck (just parts, not labor or refurbishing of existing parts). Engine, brakes, steering, suspension, drive train, and fuel systems are all new. Truck cruises at 85+mph, tracks and stops straight. If interested I can share the complete build spec details. Engine is a professionally built and installed (from all new and/or NOS parts) Chevy 250 in-line six, putting out 185HP. Setup for EFI (wiring and fuel lines) but currently running a 2 barrel Holley carb. Quick acceleration and a higher top speed than any Defender needs. Plenty of info online regarding the Chevy 250 conversions. The engine directly bolts into a Defender without any needed changes to chassis, bellhousing, or firewall. The Chevy 250 is a dependable engine that is simple and affordable to maintain and allows the Defender to easily drive with traffic.<br />
<br />
The only issue with this truck are the door bottoms, which have rust caused by galvanic corrosion. The doors are still fully functional but, I just want to note that this is the only corrosion on the truck. I have restored many Land Rovers and I always opt to leave all patina to any aluminum part, as long as it is not causing any usability or future maintenance issues. If you wanted this truck to be cosmetically perfect, the doors would need repaired or replaced (replacing would cost about $1500 with paint and would take about 30 minutes to install) and a paint correction would need to be done to the rest of the body. If you just want an honest truck that is mechanically sound and ready to drive trouble free for many years/miles, this truck would be a good fit.<br />
<br />
Need to sell to free up garage space for other Land Rovers projects so...if you are interested, please reach out!<br />

This was taking off a Series 3 109 station wagon some time ago and it's purpose/location has been lost to time and memory. I can't seem to locate any diagrams that show this specific part/bracket. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[Hello everyone,<br />
<br />
I am looking for advice regarding a Diesel all-in-one kit. I have recently come across several options online and I am unsure which one offers the best performance and value. Can anyone share their experience with these kits, particularly in terms of fuel efficiency improvement, engine cleaning, and long-term reliability?<br />
<br />
I am also curious if installation is straightforward for beginners or if professional help is required. Additionally, are there any trusted brands you would recommend or common issues to watch out for before purchasing?<br />
<br />
Any guidance would be greatly appreciated for a first-time user.]]></content:encoded>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[Hi everyone-<br />
<br />
I'm trying to install a new main drive shaft in my Series IIA 88 (1969) and I have the rear bolts off but I can't budge the front nuts, which attach to the parking brake assembly. I'm worried that I'm rounding them off. Does anyone have a clever trick they've had luck with? My next attempt will probably mean taking off the brake drum to see what I can access that way, but I fear I will have to resort to chiseling to try to break the nuts apart. Any suggestions are welcome! I've already hit it with Aerokroil and heat.<br />
<br />
thanks!<br />
<br />
