Thread: Do you sleep in your Defender 110?

Plenty of storage under the floor, very solid and has the added advantage it takes about 10 minutes to strip it all out so you have a bare body to cart big stuff or clean all the dirt out after your big trip

I like the idea of this.
Do the sheets and planks bounce up and down on rough roads, or are they anchored down somehow?

Hey mate

The cross braces are retained by bits of aluminium angle, hence they can't slide backwards and forwards. The sheeting has been cut in to suit the shape of the body and with the added weight of the rubber mat, swag, camping boxes and other gear on top it's a pretty big bump to make it move, and if it does it's just a case of bouncing it back in to place

Simple as....wife and son snug as bugs, mosquito/snake netting under a tarp. Good enough in Malaysian jungle. No one here (with any brains) fits stuff like RTTs on the roof, not even roof racks for gear. The jungle pinstripes and gouges on my roof explain why.

Hi Jock,

Anymore photos or detail about the cages behind the seats? That is exactly what i want to do.

And are they speakers up the top??

Cheers

Steel tray is pretty good in a swag. Looking to get a canopy to keep the rain off and the mossies out. Lots of room.
