Technical Info
Below are a few details of our defender chassis -
Bolt on gear box crossmember as standard
Anti-roll bar brackets front and rear
Main legs are in pressed pieces as original made from 2mm steel with 3mm stiffeners fitted and spotwelded internally for added strength where outriggers and suspension mounting points are fitted, effectively giving you 5mm of material where most needed.
Bolt on rail for rear tub mountings
LH & RH steering damper bracket welded on as standard
All tapped holes redrilled and tapped, excess galv removed
Riv nuts fitted for front & rear mud flaps, power steering pipe clips and step (plus fuel filter TD5/TD4)
TD5 Rear crossmember
The TD5 rear crossmember is the same size and shape but has the large hole
for trailer socket, and the tow bar mounting holes are slightly different. If you have a Dixon Bate adjustable towbar we supply a bracket which re-aligns the holes or you will need to fit a Land Rover 110 TD5 tow bar, Part No. LR006310.
You will also need to buy 2 off ANR 4164 Rear Suspension Upper Link Bush (A-frame) to fit the new M16 bolt (provided)
