View on 110 Mods

Hi, quite fancy a 110 being sold at Tim Fry Landrovers and whilst I have some experience of standard defenders, the following are new to me in terms of how well they fit with defenders

so if the following was fitted to a TD5 110, any views on whether this is good or bad, effect on perf and consumption etc

GKN Over-Drive, JE Engineering Stage Two Tune,Alloys

Thanks for any advice Sweatysock

2016 Defender 110 Puma 2.2 XS DCPU Fuji White

I had a GKN overdrive on my td5, never hardly used it but was good when i did you really felt the difference. Personally just stick with a remap as i tended not to use the overdrive with my td5 mapped

Check that the over drive works ok ( only works over 30mph ) but if you do lots of distance using dual carriage ways or motorways well worth it in my opinion.

I have a 110 TD5 with a GKN overdrive. I use mine pretty much all the time above 50mph as it drops the revs to an acceptable noise level. When I read about them when I bought the 110 I think it's meant to drop the revs by about 25%. Basically I use it like a 6th gear. It does work in 4th as well but I just change up to 5th.

I've not had any issues with mine but I read that they're very expencive to repear or replace (not even made anymore i belive) If mine broke I'd probably just have it taken off.

I can't help with the tuning question other than by saying....I'd love one on my 110!!! Strong people are harder to kill and generally more useful!

I can not help with your specific questions. However one of the guys I do business with does speak highly of Tim Fry.

Not sure if that is of any help

Ditto Leeds' comment... I get a lot of stuff from Howard at the salvage yard at the top of King alfred way, he's head helpful.

Havn't used the shop for a while, but used to a lot, and again, helpful.

The ideal set up

Je have been doing that tune for a while, usually a standard refueling map + larger intercooler. An Overdrive is on my wish list. As Thor says drops rpm making a nice 60mph quiet. An overdrive fitted is around £1500

So you have around £2500 of goodies free
