I hope they do, but want one that does not flex back into the exhaust stream, so one of nudge t's stiffies may just do the job for the new one that will last longer than 1000kms. This new 90 has to last me at least the next 20 years or so, then I will probably not remember it, where am I?

Had three replaced under warranty, but warranties don't last forever. I haven't fronted LR for a replacement since warranty expired and there is an argument that the mudflap isn't fit for purpose and they should continue to replace them however what are the chance of that?


Watching to see if Nugget can come up with something.

I'm having trouble uploading the information and pictures but if you look for "melting mud flaps" in 90 110 130 Defender County section,Shatkins has a solution posted on the 23rd October 2015.

If you are thinking of making a steel guard/cover to go around the edge of the mudflap would be interested in a set. If you need a mudflap to work with i have one to lend out.

Rear Disc Brake Stone Guard Reinforcers - Stiffies for short!



Defender Rear Disc Brake Stone Guards are veryimportant, stopping stones hitting the discs. Unfortunately they arenotoriously prone to cracking and in many instances, coming completely looseand damaging the ABS line.



This is a real issue for anyone heading bush oncorrugated dirt roads. The problem first surfaced for me with the 110 in theform of a very very annoying squeak. Luckily I found the problem just before theycracked all the way through and did further damage.

The 130 has not fared any better after just onetrip?..

One fixing point cracked completely off and oneother badly cracked. Clearly these would not have survived another trip.



A genuine replacement set is around $145 per pairbut Nugget Stuff now have a solution for just $50.

Laser cut from 2mm steel and zinc plated to stoprusting, the Nugget Stuff Rear Disc Brake Stone Guard Reinforcers are easy tofit and stop the vibration which causes the originals to fail

Because they fit over, and use the originalfitting points, the Reinforcers work with already cracked guards and can be fitted by anyone with a10mm spanner, 5mm drill and a tube of silicon sealant.

Supplied are 2 zinc plated 2mm thick steelReinforcers and all nuts and bolts. All for just $50 per set from Nugget Stuff, Mulgo and British Car Components.

Have bought a set of these ........plan to fit them tomorrow ..........do I need to remove the wheels or do the guards come off with the wheels still on ......I think they are held on by 3 bolts ......
