Did you ever find a 300GD LWB with the OM617A? If you are interested still, I am planning on selling mine in the near future.

I have side lined the sale for now due to family medical issues, just not a priority right now. Sorry to offend the defenders. I actually love them, but read my email to a craiglist responder. It's all how you look at things. Sorry to offend you, but the British are not known for their...

It has been for sale for a really long time, not sure why. One thing is, why spend the money on an engine swap and put a jetta gasser in it. Crazy.

Thanks Bhos, Those are 33x10.5 on 15's.

The Evolution continues: 50 mm lift installed, roof rack, bike rack and almost finished my modified saddle tank veggie kit conversion.

I paid about $18,000 plus put in about $9,000-$10,000 in repairs and upgrades.

David, Nice to see your rig comming along. I just started my veggie install, the rebuilt engine is still not fully broken in yet but by the time I finish the intstall it should be. We need to wheel these two:safari-rig: legendary rigs together someday.:safari-rig:

That Ironman package is very subtle, he he he :Wow1:. I think I would buy it and drive around with my fat belly just throw people off!

The best place to get a clean RHD G is Japan, I know you can import them to NZ without much difficulty. It would worth doing this way as converting would be quite expensive comparing just buying a RHD.

Thanks for the tip on where to get one. I just placed my order. Mine is going in my G Wagen, some would say sacrilege but I happen to like Defenders also!

Anyone in the US sell the Mudstuff products? I need a mini mud pod but I don't want the hassle of buying from England.

Sorry, just saw the pick up only option.

From what he describes suggests his G is older than 1992 if it has the plunger style levers next to the drivers seat. There isn't a center diff on this model. The newer style are electric switches that activate a mechanical locker, the style I pictured here are completely mechanical.
