Urban Truck alloy levers? Not getting anything out of this, I just did my research for my own needs and these seem the go. There are also other companies that offer alloy levers but the only come in one color unlike with UT which gives you the choice to spice things up if that's your thing.
Another option is Croytec but they're a bit expensive and the transfer lever will require some work to fit on. Another option is try getting SVX levers. Another option is Heritage or Adventure levers if you can get them... I hope this helps. Let us know which route you went and post pics! |

Hey there
No, I'm looking for the OEM levers that are fitted to the last run of Defenders, Have looked to find a set of decent SVX levers, but unsuccessful and even enquired about the @control Pack' from Overfinch (which are a beautiful bit of engineering!), but those were cost prohibitive. I just need to replace my cracked set and would prefer the latest new kit from Land Rover direct. Any thoughts? |

I just fitted the adventure ones, best option in my opinion, factory look and nicely made.

Thanks guys, apologies for the late reply, my 90 was written off shortly after my last post..I lost motivation to live
 
I t-boned an idiot who turned in front of me without signalling , ended up cracking my chassis and the insurance company simply wouldn't pay the repair bill, cheaper to pay me out. As for HOW the gear leaver cracked, we live in some extreme temps here in the middle east, mid 50's in the summer and it causes everything to perish with time, unfortunately. Anyway, replaced the 90 with a 110 recently, so will look to replace the selectors again. Thanks for the advice and apologies again for the late reply. Eugene |

Eugene, sorry about the write off, but good to hear you replaced one by another.
I hope with that kind of temps there you have at least a car port to park the truck out of the direct sunlight. 
Eric You never actually own a Defender. You merely look after it for the next generation. http://youtu.be/yVRlSsJwD0o https://youtu.be/vmPr3oTHndg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GtzTT9Pdl0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ABqKPz28e6A https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rLZ49Jce_n0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XvAsz_ilQYU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K8tMHiX9lSw https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dxwjPuHIV7I https://vimeo.com/201482507 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZSixqL0iyHw |

Thanks Eric. Yes, carport at home, but unfortunately parked outside when on site. Am about to invest in some ceramic window tinting which is worth the expense as we've seen on our Range Rover this last year.

Hi, I fitted the Croytec one on my 110 didn't have to fiddle with the transfer stick as someone had mentioned. Perfect fit and you have the option to anodize them with different colors. They ship to UAE.. How do I know? I used to live there..

cheers Arsath, anodizing would have to be the route to go, because as you know, with high temperatures, the levers become difficult to handle when hot.
I see Croytec sell the gear stick, but the transfer option is for the entire linkage as well as the lever? Or did you simply purchase the 2 levers individually? Cheers for the advice 2014 Defender 110 Puma Station Wagon 2024 Ranger Rover Vogue HSE |
