Might have to get the steering looked at as the steering is off centre and a bit more free play than I’d like, worse than my previous Defenders.

Ya have any pictures of the new rims and tires?

Fitted new wiper refills, replaced a front parking light globe and it blew again I think, might even be loose wiring. Bought new blackout light for front. Replaced headlights with some old LED’s that I had which has made a world of difference, but considering Stedi as replacements for these as well.

Hi Greg
Koni raids. Put them in at the factory setting, first impression is they're a bit soft but will try them on some dirt roads before I make any adjustments

Good on ya I went with koni raid HDs on my 87 110. Haven't changed them on the Perenties yet. Been very happy for the past few years with them though.

I’m going to stick with my current setup as there hasn’t been any problems as yet. But good to know as the more knowledgeable you are the better.

Regards,

Greg
