Hi AJC, how do the noise levels compare on the road? I currently have the old style BFG ATs and am considering swapping to the STT Pros.

Dinitrol/Stone chipped the rear 1/4 chassis on the 110

Had a slight Dinitrol incident with the Shultz style cans.. turns out that with the spray tube on the gun being slightly blocked caused a build up of pressure in the can....But....I hadnt screwed the gun on properly and ended up with around 1/2 the can all over me.

Luckily, just my T-shirt and work trousers...Even more luckily for me, I had put down an old tarp on the floor....just as well.!
Still managed to do the job on both sides.

While under the car, I checked the rear pads, not low low but about 1/2 way worn.
Checked the rear discs and down to about 10/11mm thick. (thats with the lip on the disc)

Spotted a split in the fuel breather pipe. Sad 1999 Defender TD5 110

They are noisier but they're going to be unfortunately. Doesn't bother me, can't hear it over the radio anyway.

Will this interfere with the function and use of the front passenger Dear God handle?

2000 miles further on down the road now, were you playing the game of "I remember that year" as you were coming up to the "millenium" I was trying to get the days date on the clock on the day itself but missed it!
