1989 Land Rover Defender 90 Right Hand Drive 2.5l petrol engine with 5 speed transmission. It is 4wd all the time. Been in the US since Sept 2014. I have all the proper paper work and it has been registered in TN for the past year. Has approx. 130K miles on it. Importer told it me motor had been rebuilt at some time, although could not provide any documentation. I did adjust the valves and the top of the motor looked very clean. I've replaced most of the suspension parts along with new bolts/nuts when possible. Differential has a little leak, a few drops after driving a lot, no other drips on ground. Tons of new parts. I have purchased over $5000 in parts, many of which I had imported at a cost savings of several thousand. The stock petrol has a little over 80hp. Previous owner had a/c installed, but I never had it charged. Compressor does turn on and I replaced both electric fans for the condenser. 2" suspension lift with BFG KM2 285/75/16 on newer defender wheels. Also has full size spare and matching new tire. Paint is dull and faded, you can see the color difference where the side decals were removed.
Some of the New parts:
5- BFG KM2 285/75/16 tires
Terrafirma 2" springs
Terrafirma castor corrected front radius arms
Terrafirma rear rose joint radius arms
Terrafirma shocks and steering damper
All bushings, ball joints, driveline u-joints,etc.
SS braided brake lines
Front seat covers
Locking console box
Brakes were good, so I did not refurb but did replace rear wheel cylinders. Have all bearings and gaskets to replace axle bearings. Have all bearings and gaskets to rebuild front swivel pins/ball, except the actual swivel balls. I have bought tons of the nickel and dime parts that needed replaced. Only has two jump seats installed in the rear, but I do have the other two.
One pic shows a little rust in the rear frame member, and another pic shows one of the outriggers had some termitesand someone put a piece of fiberglass on it to cover it up, ...Has the fold down steps at all doors, a little rusty, but still work.Ordered new door gaskets, but they didn't have the corners molded in, so the gaskets on it now were justcut and allow water to leak into the doors.
I've put probably 2k miles on it since all the new parts were put on. Cruises at 55mph.
I have tried to describe the vehicle as accurately as possibly, but with any old vehicle, it is sold as-is. I prefer the winning bidder to come pick it up that way it can be inspected and any issues can be worked out before final sale. If you do wish to buy it and have it shipped, I would do so, but it is sold as-is. vin SALLDVBD7FA384941
