series front door into 98 Defender

[Brad110]

Can it be done?

Whats involved?

What tricks are there for young players?

catches/ hinge positions?

I want to go back to 2 piece doors without window register problems but will still leak like a real landy.

Regards

Military 110 doors just look like Series3 doors to me.

[Jock The Rock]

Pretty sure Series IIIs use the same hinges as on a Defender

I've seen it done before

I'll try and track down a photo of a mate who fitted them to his Defender

Yey will fit though you will need to change the door lock receivers etc..

All the best,

Yeah, should fit but lock is different, should be able to maufacture something to make it work.. Military 110/Def doors look very similar (the door top glass is angled) not so easy to get hold of and prob cost a bit more.

The doors will bolt straight on, but the easiest swap will be if you get series 3 doors complete with the lock and striker mechanism.

Make sure you use the anti-burst type lock of the later SIII. The early tongue type locks don't meet ADR on the Defender.
