    Great episode, I really love seeing the driving clips in the beginning as they get me excited the most. Also I really like the intros of people with the music clips. This definitely spiced it up even more!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🏁🏁

    Well…
    Like so many of these build channels… they not only serve as a promotion channel for the public but, also could serve as a FREE engineering course in car manufacturing… for the layman … wich I find incredible useful, as a none professional… thx 🙏🏻

    Does the Snap-On guy have his own parking space Dave? - You should get them to sponsor a build for you, they can pay you in spanners ! Another great episode, I’m working hard to save my pennies for the Wolf build, but Daughter just got married, Wife wanted a new bathroom, they just don’t understand my Land Rover disease. ❤️ Mahker…

    Nice build, quality work. I'd trade out that chevy engine for a TDI though if i had one, someday. Keep up the great work!

    Always nice to see your truck on the Chanel, thought I was going to have to swap the front axle due to the sump issue, but as normal Dave and nicky work there magic and fabricated something to sort it out👌the attention to detail on the build top class as usual. Carnt wait to hear her running 👍

    Said at the time the dry ice machine was a little bit twee for working on a Defender unless its internal trim.
    Looks like you have come round to my opinion.

    Do you use a enclosed box section attachment on the blaster?

    Hello everyone
    Is that possible, I want a 300TDI with the suspension of the TD5 screw springs and a galvanized chassis. Total conversion So better axles, better brakes and new interior.
    What kind of Land Rover Defender do I have to bring you to convert, of course Left Hand Drive for Switzerland and for the Dominican Republic ??? a TD5 or a 300TDI ???

    • @wearemahker
      @wearemahker  Před 10 měsíci +1

      Bring me your 300tdi donor and we will do the rest sir.

    can you skip the silicone couplings?
    At the throttle body, why not use vibrant system?
    easier serviceability.

    • @wearemahker

      We have looked into this previously but getting hold of the lt1 TB bolt on clamps was very difficult.
