Has anyone else got an outstanding "To do' list?
These are the main jobs I have left to do on my 2012 110.
The blue highlighted items are already purchased or equipment, stores in my shed. I just need to get off my bum to complete these smaller jobs / modifications.
Yellow are the less expensive, easy mods that I need to purchase.
It's funny how you get a major lack of stimulation to complete small jobs, such as completing the internal wiring for my perimeter flood lights on the roof rack, or finishing off the Dynamating of the left rear passenger door!
I'll get out and complete some jobs today. Hopefully this will inspire me.
Best wishes all.

I have one, but it's in a constant state of flux. Things I thought were a high priority a year ago are no longer a concern. Sometimes it's good to get the ideas on paper than step back and come back later to re-assess.

It's because of you I'm sold on the extra fuel filter! I've never used one nor had a problem, but it just looked so shinny!
I'll use your build as my template ( along with many of your other mods oh Sensai!)

I've got a list but trouble is an item like

Scrub rails

Has meant I decided to go with powder coated ally rails this time so I have spent numerous hours building a rotary draw bender to form the rails. Have it working nicely on 25mm tube so now need to make a die for 40mm and 50mm tubing in order to make said scrub rails!!!!
But hey it's all fun in the end

And then of course the weather is dropping this week so all other priorities get shelved time for a reddie bash Tuesday night ! Bring it on!

Ken I think your list looks more like my "wish list". My ever growing "to do" list says things like..... Fix leaking p gasket coolant leak, replace stuffed rear a frame bushes, fix transfer case oil leak......:( Definitely a case of wants and needs for me.

This is my 'To do' list as of 6 Dec 16.
It seems to be getting bigger, but many jobs aren't biggies.
I'm held up by my knee ops and hobbling around.
I either have all the parts here now, or they are on their way, so hopefully I can start fitting bits and modding by next week once I'm not so sore.
I also purchased an Alisport Stainless coolant reservoir to swap out the OEM plastic unit. No chance of a seam splitting when inland, which I noticed isn't on the list.
I enjoy modding as much as owning the truck.
More to follow!

Rear ladder
Roof rack
Hi lift jack
Maxxtrax
Led light bars front and rear

Fuel tank guard
Front and rear rocovery points
Rear corner protection
Km2 tyres

Led interior lights
Front and rear lockers
In cabin winch control
Bas tune and intercooler and silicone hoses
Hd flanges
Oil lubed bearings

Wow. I feel like that it's been a five year process not one!

New list:

35s
Wider arches painted black
Hd axels
Ashcroft cv's
Glind shower system

I think I would be very happy with all that. The first two I will have on in two weeks. The next two in Jan. Then nothing planned after that

Have been running the Ashcroft Flanges now for about 5 months.
All good and backlash is reduced. Need to check and grease in a few more months.

Generally Defender owners have some sort of list, that as already mentioned is in a constant state of change and generally gets bigger as the "Defender bug" infects you more...
