I opt'd for the path of least resistance and went with a bigger tire. However I am talking to Delica Works who has made a replacement transmission with custom 5th gear. I think I'm going this route when I can get some money saved. I also took on a project 1991 Defender 90, also grey market

I've seen some adds come up on some of the Delica groups on facebook. I don't think it's the same product, but similar and coming out of Asia. Similar price I saw, I didn't ask about shipping. If I can find the link I will post back here.

Yes. I had to re-use some of the stock bushing in the front because the new Bilstein bushings on the top post would have spaced the shock down another 1/2" and I could barely get them in there as it was. Also the post is like the exact diameter of the hole it mounts in, so you almost have to get...

I've bottomed them out a couple times with casual driving and not much weight inside. I would definitely get the alternate model I mentioned (shorter) unless you are doing leafs and/or lift. Probably perfect with 2" lift. I may just get the shackles or maybe the short shock. I really like how it...

Polytrol is pretty amazing but didn't last very long on my exterior plastic.

Just off amazon, common lamps. Be careful of one's with large metal heatsinks, they can short and melt. These are plenty bright in my opinion: The dome light uses both the 28 and 31mm and I think the red door lights were also 28mm https://a.co/d/8U64Bfc And I replaced my offroad (bumper)...

Just a road report. I lost one of the screws holding 1 clip already. Maybe I forgot to tighten it or maybe it shook loose, but the rest will be getting some thread lock this weekend. Bummer is I lost the screw cap cover as well

Previously I repaired the analog factory inclinometer, although my repairs seem dry there is a hairline crack in the face and it started leaking. Maybe the oil inside expanded and cracked it or maybe I didn’t notice the crack before. Either way I decided to replace it with these X95 GPS gauges...

Averaged $40 on shipping. Some a little more/less. Definitely be careful shipping to the great white north or see if they have a friend across the border.

Good bad or otherwise I took a lot of what I read here and decided to try the Bilstein B8 5125 Series. I have a stock 1993 L300 4D56 4x4, and it still had the original shocks. What I was looking for in this thread that I couldn't find was stock dimensions. I'm measuring by tape measure &...

I had 1 person back out, of 4 others interested. Including yourself you should have 3 interested now. Look a few posts back for my list. I think I also had a DM from someone that didn't post in the thread.

Thanks everyone. They are all sold at this point. This cost me just under $1000 to import 4pair. If someone else want to finance it it seems like there were another 4 people interested at least. Message me and all send you all the info. After all was said in done it averaged about $285 to...

I'm working down the list above, and waiting for payment. Please check you PM's from me, if you are next on the list I will message you.

AFAIN, these are the only size from Airplex. Also, I didn't mention previously I guess these are specific to 87 and later models L300

I was centering it around this tab, but then I realized you can pop this out and move it. So then I just lined them up where they look best. Was also hard to get to this screw, but spinning the mirror forward helped quite a bit
