Disco 200Tdi in a Defender??

Thanks Stefan, forgot I had read that some time ago!!!!!!!!!!!
Have cut the side brackets off today and got the rad shell in place to see how much hight I need to get rid of. Looks like removal of the bottom brackets will do it, I plan to cut them off and get the locating pins out then drill the mounting shell and weld the pins in it.

Oh did u get the pics i sent over to your mobby?
graham2306:
Yes thanks mike, I did. Very useful. I have got the lugs off of the side and 'test fitted' it in to check so next step is to cut the brackets off of the bottom.

Well there is so much plumbing! I haven't decided exactly where to put the air filter yet, the old 2.5 NA one was knackered, case split, so I am going to use the Disco one. Thinking about putting it on the roof above the passenger and piping it up as a snorkel. Remember seeing a Royal Marines one done like it for deep wading. Havin g it well out of the way makes plumbing up the turbo and intercooler so much easier.
Power steering and oil cooler are plumbed in and have made up mnost of the bottom hose. Need to get some heater hose and some hose to make up a top hose from. Anyone know any good hose suppliers near Banbury???
It's taking much longer than I planned :-)
:) :D :D :D :)
