Actually the gasoline V6 brakes fit 17” wheels.

IIRC the lower control arm mounts bolt to the subframe which is replaceable. Not sure on the uppers though.

A guy on Instagram I follow has his Disco 4 built like you guys are talking about.

Ditto especially with Lucky 8 coming out with a winch bumper shortly.

Lucky 8’s New Defender.

All LR3’s and LR4’s have terrain response and the later ones (2014-16) with the HD pack have TR2 IIRC and the later ones without the HD pack have a stripped down TR and are AWD (Not permanent 4wd) with no low range. The ARB locker would essentially make the system think there’s no wheel spin on...

Yeah I really wish it had a true permanent 4wd system.

That was actually powered off the Defender’s PTO as well.

No problem. IIRC they switched to battery power to conserve fuel through a real congested section of road.

That is correct it’s 27 miles of full electric power. I remember hearing about Land Rover testing that on the silk trail expedition. One of my favorite modern LR expeditions. https://expeditionportal.com/silk-road-expedition-2013-nears-the-finish/

The dealers think they won’t sell they also probably can’t mark them up as much as higher trim models.

I wish the front looked like the Sport, personally I think the front looks like the Velar and Defender had a baby.

Now that’s an idea. Or they could even sell it separately as their own version of a Gap tool. Although I think it can do some of the things you listed.

The only thing Ford about it is the factory it was built in and the money that originally developed it.

My point was more along the lines of the hardware being pretty much the same. Considering the vehicle has a almost completely new software and brake system I’m honestly not surprised the software has the occasional glitch. It’s like the early version of each major iOS or Mac OS update it almost...

I also noticed he said the braking in general wasn’t good which is not what other reviewers have said. They all have pretty much said it’ll stop on a dime. Plus he had the glitchy wade mode which makes me wonder if something either Pivi pro or BCM related is jacked up. I seem to remember reading...

Ironically it looks like a shop in Germany may be developing a roll cage for the Defender.

Just thought it would be good to point out LR doesn’t make the brake by wire system. It’s made by chassis brakes international who supplies the same basic system notably to Toyota and Ford as well as many other manufacturers. However the Defender has a hill hold function that should have kept...
