WE BUILT THE LOWEST DEFENDER

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

I'm interested to see what you guys think of this one, it's massively controversial...
We had -3" custom springs manufactured for this little 90; we've built it to be a FAST road spec car adding many hidden upgrades and neat little touches. For some reason this particular Defender didn't look right sitting on a regular suspension kit.... we wanted to loose as much of the arch gap and create something unique.

    End of the day, the Defender is a very customisable vehicle and if this owner wants it that way, then who are we to turn our noses up. It just shows what can be done. And if in a years time he doesn't like it. Putting some taller springs back on it isn't difficult. I think it looks smart and will still turn heads.

    I think you just nailed it. It can always be reversed and there are a lot of companys turning them into Chelsea Tractors. Even Land Rover are doing it with the new one. ( Controversial) :D

    I like the look. One suggestion, if the idea is sleek and fast maybe go with a non-AT tire. One of the road tires that are on the new Defenders or Range Rovers might look even better. Pirelli Zero All Season maybe. Great work as always!

Looks classy and planted but if in the future you want it to look mean and with more presence replace springs and boom back to another look - another quality video along with quality work - keep them coming

    Please guys, have the customer come back and fit rear dislocation cones. Obviously not needed immediately, but the spring can lodge itself crooked and even force the tire off the bead. Or better yet, just get shorter shocks and put those nice shocks on something else. As for the isolators, you will find them on D1/D2s here in the US. Not sure if they're on D1s over there, considering you guys haven't run into them? Those Bearmach isolators are actually OEM replicas by the way, at least for the rear. The fronts are a bit different.

    Love the look of course but having those springs hang loose like that when unloaded wouldn’t sit well with me personally, maybe try shorter dampers that would at least keep the springs preloaded. I would go with a more road inspired wheel/tyre package as well, let’s face it it’s no longer an off-road vehicle there’s no reason to have off-road tyres.
