Thread: Defender 130 Rear cross member towing question

The filler is just behind the rear door, it goes through the cabin behind the back seat and through the floor into the tank with a transfer pump to push the fuel across to the main tank.

I've got that - didn't know it was an LRA tank but I suppose it must be.

Problem for me is that the sill tank seems to makle fitment of mulgo sliders impossible... !

You will see from the pictures that I had to trim some steel from the tow bar section that runs forward to the Chassis.



As for sway bars.....their over rated! I do have Dobinsons Springs (+2"), poly air bags and twin revalved Bilsteins on each corner of the rear...

Yours is an Australian made and fitted Land Rover tow bar identical to the one on my '98 130, the UK made/fitted bars are as Juddy posted above.
