Help very quickly please - Defender Steering wheel

Hi all,

I have been offered the following:

Sports steering wheel for Defender - Colour Grey. (Will also fit onto steering column of S2a & S3)

355mm (14 inch) diameter outer ring

This steering wheel has the "Peg" type indicator cancellation feature on the back of the mounting boss.

Fits all Defenders except those with ABS brakes or Traction Control, as these vehicles have different splines on the end of the steering column.

This steering wheel was made by Land Rover's steering wheel manufacturer, but has never been offered as an option by LR.

Makes the steering much easier.

--------

I have a Defender 110CSW 12 seater 1991 2.5TDI Right hand drive english Spec. Will it fit my steeering wheel? I have to ask as it is going to cost me 60 pounds sterling and I want to make sure it is right. Will it fit easily?

Andrew,

There are two types of Defender column - the early/CSW type with a small column, and the Tdi/non-CSW type with a larger diameter column.

The early type is fitted to: 90/110/130 pre-Defender (so before Tdi engines ~1990) with the 4-spoke wheel 1998-on Station Wagons (including CSWs) with the 2 spoke wheel with the fat removable central section

The Tdi type is fitted to: Defender Tdis and Td5s except Tdi Station Wagons post 1998. 2 spoke wheel with a removable oval badge to access nut.

There's no difference between those Td5s with or without ABS or TC, it's done on Station Wagon/non SW. The Tdi type (larger diameter) is compatible with Series columns - Dad's got a 2 spoke wheel with the removable oval badge on his Series 1. I've got a Td5 CSW type wheel on my 1988 90.

If they say it will fit a Series column, then it's compatible with the Tdi column, which should be fitted to your 110 - easily checked by the existing wheel.

Hope this helps,

Martin

Martin, Have read with great interest all about your 90. One question: There are some pics of a half cut down rear door you put on but say it didn't work. I thought of doing the same. Can you please tell me why it didn't work and what you have now? Cheers Richard
