It's a bit hard to work out what you want but, from the last bit, I gather you WANT to do donuts & get it sideways.

Maybe replace the 200Tdi to start with if that's the case.





Are you after freewheeling hubs?
I don't think it's a good idea in a Defender as you'll need to lock the centre diff to get the car moving :).

yeah it is a little bit of work but i think its worth it, i brought sum years ago but they ended up being the wrong ones it came with a mini spool to permitly loch the center diff AVM did make them , i know the little tdi hasnt much grunt but its enough i have a VT clubsport for when i really wanna go nuts Im just getten sick of being teased for not being able to do donuts an stuff

If you can not handle the heat, get out of the fire:angel:....

getting teased by toymota and datsun drivers comes with driving a Land rover, but we give as good as we get.

4wd systems sell the avm ones for the defender but if they cant get them you will have to order them from avm(brazil)

why do you want to donut a defender...especially when you own a club sport:confused:....

each to there own I suppose...personally I would be taking your mates that tease you off road and show them what an swesome off road machine you have rather than ****ing it up....doing lamearse donuts;)

ha squatdog I understand what you going through, my previous 4x4s where part time 4x4 and it was so much fun ripping it up in the mud and big padocks, sand and fish taling, that is some thing I miss when out with toymotors and nissans but at the end of the day I don't have to get out in the mud to lock the hubs in. the hardest thing about owning a rover is that it is harder to get parts for but with a bit of home work you can out do the other 4x4s for less money and less mods, so stick it out mate.

Why bother with donuts? its lame, as Dullbird said, the Army used to do them to get recruits.
