Yeah - not that impressed with the clutch claw. I was hoping to get the x-eng pedal lock but they don't make it for tdci defenders.

I highly recommend the Safe-T-Pedal, heavy, cumbersome, not easy to store but a great fit on the Puma and seems very very strong and secure. James

Alright so done a few things to the 130:
- canvas and sticks off ready for when the hardtop arrives
- blindo wheels fitted (turning circle is soooooooo much better now)
- dirt d-fenders fitted to hopefully stop too much dirt getting up the sides
- genuine LR raised air intake fitted
- cargo bear roof rack fitted (rack over the cab and I have 3x cargo bear roof bars to go over the hardtop at the back for the roof tent) - thanks Brendan Thumbs Up

Oh I forgot to add - front bumper has been replaced with a HD first four unit with square hitch receiver and the standard tow bar has been replaced with one that has a hitch receiver and a hitch drop plate.

I'm got a portable warn winch coming that will be mountable front or rear on these hitches.

Same as mine then an AFN from Portugal Mr. Green if it’s got the square hinges keep them well oiled both AndrewS and me had issues with them stiffening up.
Is the company your dealing with used to be called Daams ?

When you get the top check its square/straight before you accept it. Measure it diagonally to make sure it is square. Also bear in mind that the tub on the 130 may be out of square (I bet it is) if the tub is out one way and the top out the other way there could be 40mm difference corner to corner. I had a hell of a job fitting mine.

Grease all the latches, you may need to remove them to do this, its better to do it before full assembly as it will be a lot easier. The latches are heavy duty and will get stiff if left dry.
