A newby and some piccys of my 110

**gusthedog** · 16th October 2009, 08:54 PM

Here's a few piccy's of my fridge slide Drover. I didnt have the fridge handy but will post some more later on if you want to see it in the vehicle.

In this photo you can see the power outlet (grey) with the engel battery monitor attached. You can also see the board thingy I have installed and carpeted between the wheel arches.

In this photo you can see the fridge slide extended and my 'fully sick' carpentry skills in the form of some dodgy but serviceable speaker boxes, which are indeed carpeted by the way.

And finally, here is a piccy of my cruise control for Lightweight. Its an auscruise system (near 1 grand installed - the exploroz system for td5's is only 80 bucks - was I ****ed when I found out!). Next to the handbrake you can see my Tekonsha inertia brake controller for the electric brakes on the camper. Also note the third dial to the left - my tacho! And the ARB turbo timer to the bottom right. Excuse the fuzziness of the photo - It was a loong day!

I like what you have done with the speakers and the tie down points along the sides look great. Where did you source the tie down points from as I now have holes that need filling as I have just removed the rear seats.

I have just bought a 2000 model defender and am doing the same things with the rear of the vehicle.

Welcome, and thanks for all the photos.

There are a few posts here on Diesel Gas systems if you want to do a search. Some guys have has issues but not sure if this is on a TD5 or other engines.

Cheers
David

Rockyroad - the tie down points are just the standard landrover ones from the floor that I moved up to the sides when I installed the board. If you dont have them in your vehicle I spose you could source them from a wrecker maybe?

And cheers spudboy, have looked on the forum recently in regards to the diesel gas. Interesting. The thing I like the most about the diesel gas is that it seems to stress the TD5 a lot less than chip, intercooler and exhaust upgrades. I personally dont like the idea of removing the cat for example - Im a bit of a hippy and want to keep the emmisions under control. And the plus is you dont have to use it if you cant get gas.

And thanks for the welcome warren.

Will post a pic of gus soon

Welcome to the forum mate - and a particularly good looking Defender you have there.

Check out the NEVLRC section - we have a meal and a beer, coke, lemonade - whatever - every second Wednesday of the month - it is a great night. Why not come along and meet up with us next month
