    Offroad Recovery Gear Questions

    Mu $.02 worth; Just having a kinetic rope is fine if you are going where someone else might stumble across you. Otherwise you need to get your self out or take your phone for maybe a long walk. My vote is for an electric winch for self recovery. Tell all your friends and family that you want one...

    Land Rover Defender Setup’s

    No, it came as a 4 petrol(2.25l), I put a 200tdi in it. I'm not sure, I think the 6's were around 65-68. Definitely 2a.

    Yeah, my 109 is leaf springs. Probably different fitment. I like the head on pic gives a different view of the protection.

    Re leaf springs, aren't 110's coil springs? Not seen but 1 of them in the last Century.

    Thanks Bjoern, I've not seen that style before. Can you take a pic of the mounting point, please? Needs holes drilled? Works on leaf spring vehicles? Friend selling them?

    Land Rover Defender Setup’s

    Interesting, not sure I like it. I mean it looks the part, just not sure of its functionality. I still have the stock steering arms. Over here in the desert there are plenty of chances to knock them about. Some folks have gone to putting on beefier arms. However once bent you can't straighten...

    Fire proof travel safe

    I dunno about vehicle safes, I have a well known safe in my closet which I am happy with until the last fires in LA. I saw a guy go to his burned down house and pick up what was left of the same safe and everything inside was destroyed. I'm thinking the best thing is to keep it on you.

    Want advice: Best Storage Solutions for a Compact Overland Rig

    Depending on what you want to store I suggest buckets with lids, Action Packer boxes from Rubbermaid and Nanuk or Pelican cases. The one caveat is if the container is too large it will be difficult to put in/take out of the vehicle due to weight.

    Raised breathers

    Bjoern, The only thing I would suggest is if you have letter stamps and it's important to you to imprint the code in the bracket.

    Ideas and help

    Welcome Harvey. My best advice is to take your camping gear and go. Moab is not nearby so forget lift kits and big tyres. Go find a local club to go on local adventures until you learn how yer car works and what you might want to take with you that you don't have already.

    Pots and pans (and kettle?) - nesting, compact, not crazy expensive

    I had a similar style kettle. the one thing which made me get rid of it was the constantly open spout. I just kept getting the inside dirty during non use. I even made a plug for it but without a tether.......

    Is my Range Rover Sport suitable for road trips?

    Upgrades and tools/spares are entirely dependent on where you plan to go and your repair knowledge level. Least is you should be able to change a fuse and fix a flat. I was with a group of Rovers in Death Valley one year and one of the Rangies broke a pipe on the suspension. No one had a means...

    Pots and pans (and kettle?) - nesting, compact, not crazy expensive

    Doesn't take much! Once you get the fire going you can drop more sticks down the throat. GO NAVY!

    Greetings from the West Coast

    Angel, I do all my stuff on a laptop so phones may look different. There is a How To tab just below the Overland Bound logo in the upper left corner. When I click on the Forums tab across the top and scroll down there are all the different topics to post in. Click the one you want and at...
