Cheers Dinnu. I think my approach will be to remove theses. rub back/treat/primer/paint/reinstall and then when the back door gets done, the whole rear end can become the same shade of blue. 1999 Defender TD5 110

On the left one, you need to drill the 2 rivets on the horizontal capping as well.
On the right one, need to remove the bolts for the spare wheel carrer.

Few pics on the build thread of my old 110dc from when I swapped the rear 1/4 panels and threshold strip

Its quite a daunting job but quite straight forward when you get into it

Thanks Paul. I guess made easier by not having a top section on the rear tub to remove the panels?
I think I will have the issue of the x-member tabs on mine are external to the panel, whereas yours are behind the panel 1999 Defender TD5 110

John, wonder if you could slide the new panel sideways, from the door opening area to the edge. But understand that you do not want to find out that it does not work after cutting the old panel off! 1988 90 Hard Top, 19J Diesel Turbo, Shire Blue - Restoration ongoing

John,
With yours being a TD5, does it not have the rear body mounting bar behind the body on the rear tub (with all 10bolts in) like my TD5 and Marsie rather than the 5 individual tabs on the outside (each with 2 bolts) like the old older ones?

If so there shouldnt be anything stopping you removing the panel with the top capping still in position

[Edit] just looked back on the first page and noticed you have the older style rear crossmember.

Hi Steve.
Mine is a 1999 TD5, so one of the early ones Sad and thus the external supports 1999 Defender TD5 110

There are 2 different TD5 rear mounts
Early type mounts on 5 separate tabs on the outside of the body and looks like the pre td5 style but is actually a removable mounting bracket held with 4 M8 bolts to the rear crossmember instead of welded tabs on the pre td5

Later style is a continuous angle iron type mounting on the inside of the panel which also bolts to the rear crossmember with 4 M8 bolts

The later style was done to "tidy" the rear end up but in reality caused a mud trap that is more prone to rotting out the alloy panels and not as easy to wash dirt away 2000 90 TD5,galv chassis, d2 axles ,Bas remap , alisport intercooler , d2 transfer box , side windows-more to come-much more!! *GONE*
