How we started:

We started with an ex MOD defender 90 2.5 N/A Diesel which is replaced by a 3.9 V8 with auto gearbox (ZF4HP22) and 1.6 LT230 transferbox.

First we ended up with:

Because we were not 100% satisfied with the result (competitors are all at a very high level these days) we decided together with Dieter Duytschaever from D&G 4x4 Tuning to change the truck completely!

instead of standard trailarms, springs and shocks we fitted a 4-link at the rear and a 3 link with panard rod at the front. Shocks and springs are replaced by 16" travel Airshox from Fox. Wheelbase stretched to 103".


4 link at the rear (on the picture mounted underneath the chassis but now mounted at the side, to keep everything clear at the bottom!):

Very sexy...

Central winch? details?
What tube diameter/kind did you use?

That right there is fawking bea.....utifull

Nice work :smokin:

Very sexy...

Central winch? details?

Thanks!

Yep central winch, which comes out just behind the roof to be able to secure the truck on slide slopes, and if necessary use it to the front or rear as "extra" winch.

Front and Rear will be 8274, and next to these there will be (if everything come together) an extra PTO driven H14 superwinch for the heavy mud or the fast hill climbs...

Total weight of the truck will be around 2000 kg (if the calculations were correct)

Steel 52 in diameter 48mm for the cage if I'm correct

I think I just achieved.

fawking SWEET!!!!I think the only thing i would have done differently would be to have trussed the top of the rear axle for the 4 link mounts...

Sweet Rig!

How dare you make me laugh out loud when I'm supposed to be on a grown up business phone call :)

And before you ask, no, I would rather not touch your Monkey!

Hendrik,

Good to put the pictures here also, instead of only LROC en B4x4.
You might get better tech info here.

fredd

I like the dash, and dude you will love those tires!

What size Ujoints are you running in your driveshafts?

I'm sorry, this is Pirate. You need to post real tech on here unless you want to get flamed. :)

Nice truck! Be sure to post your results.

Sweet truck:smokin:

Now its time to dance on the sprockets:flipoff2:

And out of the blue comes a project like this.....NIIIICE!:smokin:

What is your overall width, from outer tire sidewall to outer tire sidewall?

Awesome! Really nice. Only consern I have is I am almost sure the front end will over-power the airshocks.

And out of the blue comes a project like this.....NIIIICE!:smokin:

Yeah baby!

Who else is hiding in the woodwork? :smokin:

That dash is very nice. Good work.

I'm torn.
Yes, it's beautiful. Top notch craftsmanship. Great fab work. Nice engineering.
It just seems a shame to chop a Defender, regardless of the results.
If you're gonna build a truggy, why kill one of these?
Couldn't you have started with an S10 Blazer or Bronco II with pretty much the same results?

Did the monkey touching and modern dance references not suggest a provenance somewhat farther afield than Peoria? Defenders, while not exactly a dime a dozen, are substantially more common in Belgium than Blazers or Broncos:shaking:

GO AWAY. Your not welcome here. There are enough of your type f-ing up other boards.

Glad you all like the car!

Tech info comming up very soon, but now very busy on the truck.

Paintwork has been done today. Buildup will start next week.

keep you posted!

ignore the moron questioning the base vehicle you used. Buck said it best...can't wait to see more...Greg, how's your swap, I'm in shock mount hell right now...

X2. Super nice build.

Cool truck :smokin:

I guess kid4lyf didn't see your location :flipoff2:

What kind of trails do you run? I heard rumours that Sclayn and Bilstein are closed for 4x4's

I guess kid4lyf didn't see your location :flipoff2:

Yea, didin't notice that. I guess there are a plethora of these out by you.
As hard as they are to find here, it still hurts a little bit to see, though.
Like I said, however, beautiful job on it.
As for the asshat e-puzzies above, :flipoff2:
This is Pirate, if you're too thin-skinned to stomach that tiny amount of shit-giving, perhaps you'd be more warm-n-comfy here:

sweeet. Nice work looks like it's going to preform well.

I dream of gutting a SIII 109" for this type of project. Hope to stop molesting my poor DI one day.

Sweet rig. Are you going to compete with it?

are those bends welded in on the cage? it looks as though some of the hoops are made of multiple pcs in the same plane.

I just noticed that too when the thread popped back up.

Did you use poop pipe?

can you give an example (pic) as I don't really understand what you mean...

can you give an example (pic) as I don't really understand what you mean...

In post #6 the closeup of your bends show welds on each side of the bend like you welded in pre-bent portions. So I am curious if you used poop pipe or DOM or HREW.

Yet if you look at post #7, the same bends do not appear to have the ground welds and appear to be a continuous piece of tubing.

The instrument panel is so sexy, it should have a 35% warning:flipoff2:. I hope AFI's looks half as nice.

Looks to me like there are pre bent parts in a number of places. And the rear supports would be much stronger if they were straight pipe and connected with the tube coming up from the frame at the very rear. Parts of the cage scare me. Other than that, it's a real beauty!

I can see them in post 7 too. Definently welded in bends. Not sure why yet.
