    Plasti Dip or paint plastics

    No actually experience with the plastic dip on my defender but I’d be leaning towards a vinyl wrap.

    Buying new defender max

     Not much comes from Canada these days maybe a shelf shortage might also open some folks eyes to another problem we have in Canada. Hope you guys get your toys sooner then later.

    Half Doors

    Can’t wait to see how the door build goes for ya. I’ll be starting the same thing in a few weeks. Been putting it off since last year. My only issue is adding a window that will open. Do you have any plans or thoughts on that???

    Buying new defender max

    If your thinking doors and hard windshield with wipers then cab unit is definitely the way to go. Its insulated and sealed and better noise reduction my 2 cents. My 19 HD10 isn’t factory cab but my next one will be. if your somewhat handy then most the aftermarket stuff is more time the...

    Keep replacing fuel pumps. 3 pumps in last 3 yrs.

    My 2019 defender has also made the sound from the pressure relief valve when my tank gets hot and pressurized. It’s done it from day one so I’m not to concerned. Usually only notice it on really hot summer rides when I pit stop or park the buggy. I just pop the gas cap to shut it up lol. I’m in...

    Rear Bumper

    Ya I chose to mount my rear winch inside trailer hitch. Seems pretty strong the little i e used it. I think it looks wicked in the bumper but for pulling Polaris and Honda’s around I’ll stick with mounting to something that can’t break off. Plus this way I can also take it off to use on anything...

    Light Bar Install - HELP

    I’d run a second aux fuse bar for additions or mods requiring power like that. Much safer way to go plus no cutting or splicing  with factory harnesses. I try and keep everything isolated when I can. Hard to really say without knowing what group of wires your talking about. If your trying to...

    The Must-Do List for the Can-Am Defender

    Lights were a very must for me. Oh those yellow lights had to get upgraded. I actually chuckled to myself the first time I turned them on at night. Darn you brp.  Kolpin gun holders were a very cheap and easy mod. Doors for winter use. rear winch and wired remotes were also a must for what I...

    Rear Bumper

    I wouldn’t recommend using as a tie down for trailering your rig especially with the factory plastic hinges. Have a look at them and I think you’ll agree. Tire nets is the way to go all day long plus not putting load against suspension. Regular straps well maybe not the fastest or cleanest...

    Half Doors

    I also got the can and doors added tape to latch posts plus weather stripping to the parts that were bare around the door. No noise at all. Will be building uppers for them real soon.

    2021 Defender Knocking and stalling

    Glad the second dealership was able to get it fixed and extend your warranty. Guess you know where to take it next time.
