I built it 22 years ago, and just fully stripped it back to bare chassis and rebuilt it again. This time with lots of ca ... |

I'll try and remember the 4th of Feb.
Last time I was over there, was in the summer with my other toy, which is sorn'd at the moment.
It is generally a good turn out with a great selection of c ... |

Just a little update regarding the noise I was hearing from the rear axle.
The best way I can describe the sound was a knock with a springy twang to it when reversing and initially pulling away, ve ... |

| Yes, it's a 110 in Corris Grey? (Did you mean the colour of my 110??) Or the colour of the Ashcroft uprated output shaft kit anodised sealing cup, which is red. |

| Isn't it something like 70% of all Series 1, 2, 3's etc and Defenders produced, are still on the road? |

Hang in there!
Sounds like this other dealer is being a little ambitious and greedy.
Funnily enough, I've just looked on Autotrader, and the majority of the Defenders in my filtered list are sti ... |

It is a strange market at the moment.
I just sold my TD5 110 that I'd owned for the past 11 years for more than I paid for it.
The replacement I was after had to be a 110XS TDCi, and I only want ... |

looks like it wouldn't have been long till that failed.
I cleaned the shaft this morning, and as you rightly say, not long left until complete failure.

I did wonder that?
Last week I was still a little nervous after selling my TD5 which still felt like the engine/transmission was the better combination.
However my 30mile drive back from my ma ... |

That reassuring to hear, I've made my mind up to replace it regardless of the condition of mine.
I wonder if some people don't hear the early warning sounds/noises and by the time the noise becomes ... |

The front drive flanges seem okay, I checked them when I replaced the rear half shafts.
