Hi everyone, for those who would like to customize the rear of their Defender, here are : the .io file to reproduce rear bumper, hitch and exhaust pipes by @harrygee the corresponding bricklink .XML file inventory

sweeeeet !!! and already an 8 cylinder engine in 1999... I did not know this model. I had stopped with the technic cars to the model 8860 of 1980 (but knowing that several models were out, such as 8880, but without looking closely), and had discovered the evolution of Lego Technic gearboxes only with the release of the bugatti 42083 of 2018.... so thank you for this update ! Good luck for your work on V8 btw (this work led you to this old memories isn't it ?)

Nice V8 quite in the spirit of the original model ! Good job ! About the exhausts, they are a creation of @harrygee here and I also find that they could have been great on the stock set ! As for the friction of the rim with the Ackermann pimp 1.3, I think also that this problem doesn't appear if the Defender is put on the ground. Indeed a slight friction can appear if the wheels are not put on the ground. The wheel is set up naturally without applying too pressure from my perspective. And thanks for the comment on the bull bar (the fact that the stock set did not include any bull bar allows the community to customize this element as everyone wants) ! Do you plan to post other pictures of your mod ?

hi everyone, this thread seems to be one of the most complete concerning the modifications of the 42110 (thank you to those who make it live since 2019, but I'm surprised not to see in this topic any pictures of modifications of the initial L6 engine into V6 or V8, while keeping the initial scale of the engine. Hence my question: is it taboo to not use the classic 2850b cylinders to upgrade the Defender to V8? Those who prefer the classic pistons should close their eyes, here are the pictures of my build. I'd be happy to read your comments based on @jb70 MOC-31299 (pimp v1.2 with Ackermann and new gear ratio - so almost v1.3-) with add-ons/mods below : MOC-71508 V8 by @Legotyres MOC-63618 hunting lights by @Ginger-ninja MOC-81368 bull bar by me doors locking mechanism by @DrJimbo improved by @Some Belgian LEGO Fan exhaust pipes, rear bumper and hitch by @harrygee

Hi everyone, I'd like to share with you the bull bar I designed, inspired by the great work of some of you on this thread (bravo and thanks to you guys). Free instructions are available on Rebrickable : MOC-81368 In a nutshell what I propose here : - design close to bull bars installed on the new defender (version 2019). - 2 versions : standard and with lights. - bar to hang the winch hook. - continuous bar hooked under the chassis by support on the 2 "white technic liftarm thick 1x3".
