Fitting Simbars Disco rack to Defender

by Stuart 1. April 2012 07:28

OK, you may have noticed the Discovery has gone and in its place is a shiny Defender.  With mrsm now in possession of a Freelander 2 (which I have to say is a beautiful car), I could buy a Defender as it would not be the main family car.

On advice from previous owner and from the noise from the rear mounted spare wheel each time I went over a bump, I bought a Britpart rear wheel carrier.  I had this fitted as I was getting some other work done anyway and new I wouldn’t have time.  Ian at 4X4 store kindly welded up my knackered rear door at the same time.

I had researched in advance and found this information on fitting a Simbars Discovery rack to a Defender wheel carrier was hoping to do the same.

What's this all about?

Not the top gear website but one nothing like it. 

Been through a few "what this is" and now settled on my (Stuart McLean's) general blog - mainly about cycling but occasionally anything else chucked in.

I also occasionally write some technical stuff which you can find here.

I record most of my bike rides on runkeeper so you can see them here if you're really bored!
