I love this content. It's such a breathe of fresh air to watch a Toyota owner willing to admit that another marque actually has some merit and reason to exist. Such a change from other UA-camrs I could mention, which I have long ago ceased watching. Yes please, customer rides are great. It doesn't matter the marque, Toyota, Nissan, Mitsubishi, Landrover, anything. I love your style of presentation and your open-minded approach.
I love “Rocket” honest and just a bloody good Aussie bloke and no bullshit that’s push from sponsorships! Never met the bloke but I think he would give you a straight answer! Keep up the good work
Great clip Rod. I have had the pleasure to meet both Ian and David Ashcroft. They are the go to over here in England. Back in the day Ian rebuild my 4 pinion differential form my V8 LR 90 in his home workshop before they moved on to the big time. Cheers Non Stick Nick
You can't not love a defender. Such awesome 4x4.
Apart from the shit paintwork oil leaks noise when driving turning circle of qe 2 but off road they come alive
Yes, more customer cars and rides please?
I started my 4x life in a series 111, 109 wagon converted from a van with the 2 1/4L petrol, slow as a wet wik, I know they have a bit of a bad rap, but I loved that thing and it never left me standing (or walking :)) have some good memories from that time. 110s, as I know them, are an iconic vehicle with lots of character. Never boring.
Great video mate🤙I'd love to see customer rides. But I particularly like this one because it's not the usual LandCruiser or patrol! Keep up the good work
I'd like to see a customers car that has a fault that you investigate, trace the problem and show how you fixed it. Or day in the life on a random day in the workshop. Meet the team in the workshop. Great video of the defender.
Chris 🇬🇧.
Great suggestion! I think we will give this one a go.
A very nice conversion. I have a TD5 90 with an auto conversion from a Discovery 2. It is like a completely different car and makes the daily drive in traffic a whole lot better.
Is awasome. Keep showing this kindostaff. Woah!
Love your channel mate. Doing a custom rig is a great idea to show it doesn't matter what People drive an auto can be done to any vehicle.
Well done Rod and thanks for the video. I would like a tour of your animal refuge on your channel.
Great video yes pls more customers trucks.😊
Will do!
Land rover is the most popular 4x4 over here in the uk have been in 110s and about to do full restore on a 90 that my brother owns being stripped to chassis and then built back up, great to see a 110 featured thanks rod
Another quality production young rocket ,some costings for conversion for the vehicles involved be great 👍
If anyone was wondering but it looks so factory fit because it practically is. Ashcrofts kit is modelled after the factory land rover automatic version that was found in the north american spec vehicles in the 80s or 90s I don't remember which.
Great more landrovers please
love your work rocket! keep up the content!
Glad to see you doing something landrover
Nice name drop with Ashcroft!!! Good to see the world working together
It would be good to see the reaction from the customer before and after the conversation on ther car's. Love your channel. Greatings from denmark, (a little north of Germany 😊).
Whatever customers cars you can get your hands on, Rocket,
the bigger the variety the better, just keep them coming!!
Gday, I’d like see more customer rides, also fitting the auto in the workshop, awesome content mate, Cheers
Love to see a conversion on a brand new troopy. Great video champion
Awesome stuff yes more of it please
great to see good job ...yes do customers rides
Did you park the Fender on the grass to avoid getting oil all over your car park? 😂
Keep up the good work mate 🤙🏼
I would love to see some of the auto upgrades you have for all the different 4x4s we drive. I'm getting the Nomad Valve Body, Alloy pan, Lock up Kit and extra trans cooler on my MQ Triton (work done at Wholesale Autos of course!) in January and all my mates want to know what's involved and how it's done so they might get the same done to their 4x4s. Content like that is not only really interesting, but also great for anyone who hasn't yet decided whether or not it would be good for their 4x4. Bring it on!
Love your vids, unique and interesting content!
Great job, Rod.
Awesome, My dad had the first Jeep in our area just after WW2 then he had the first Landrover, SWB he had 10 brand new ones all up.
Hi Rocket hope you’re well cruiser brothers did my transmission in my tundra with the converter lockout drives very nice thank you yeah these types of videos are great have a blessed day
Awesome to see the Landie,would love to do the Auto conversion to my Defender.
Thank u Rocket First time in my Life i seen inside Landrover and Good to see, Because All on Utube Just See landcruiser And patrol here in Australia I Like to see all 4WD car manufacturers and the prices Now Of the Landcruiser & Patrol Way OverBoard & I think lot of People are Looking for more affordable 4WD Thank u Again For the Video Mate Have a Awesome Weekend and Please Besafe & Take Care
First Fourby was a Series 2A ex Army Land Rover , although I own a Tojo Hilux I still love the old Landy , still looking at buying an ex military 110 to do up .
I love Toyota but I would really like one of these
yes indeed more customer cars and rides please
Great video as always :) for me personally I’d love to see some techy type videos I.e actually building the gearbox’s and cars, programming them etc, everything from things not going quite right to getting it perfect :)
Love to see a positive comments on the Landi. They really aren't that bad. Especially as we don't get all the Toyota etc options over here in the UK
Great vid, mate and I both had 110's in the 90's. His had hand controls and electronic clutch conversation to suit his disability. Noisy n cluncky they were back then old 2.5 TDi wasn't the best but, we had some great fun and got my mate into places he couldn't have gone otherwise. Unfortunately due to inconsiderate people, most areas now off limits, even with quads and there ain't no way he could walk them even if he wanted. Also get to see you using a Product from a Company you have me th nod on a few weeks ago 👍
Just keep doing what your doing.
There would be no Toyota reputation without Land Rover's groundbreaking work. I've got experience with both vehicles and I've had at least one Land Rover and no Toyota since 2009.
And even better off road.
Yes Rod more customers rides please
I love LAN ROVERS, they are good fun vehicles, owned 2 myself 😉
Landys are cool like that modes
my partner loves watching the Bush Tucker man who drives one all over the outback not sure if his still doing tv series but you can still find them on UA-cam
Hi. I'v got a stage one land rover it's the start off the 110. I'v put a 3.9 v8 with automotive out off the older range rover. That thing really gose. Very easy to fit. As the stage one came out with the 3.5 v8 so to fit that in was just making one gearbox mount and change front prop to a standard prop I love the truck. But a friend of mine hit a car with it. So now need a new shasise and a few other bits. Don't no when I'm going to get back on the road. Because I have a really bad back know can hardly drive. Great video . From Andy in UK
Yes please! Nice to see a 110 seeing as I watch from the UK. Maybe a Suzuki Jimny (if you come across one?). We love them in the UK
Great video Auto, I'd like to see you develop a lockup kit for the new Dmax.
Love it would love one one day!
This was great, show more.
I reckon they are cool!
My dream car
Nice work Rod. No elbow room whatsoever 😂. Where does the lever to lock the centre diff go?
Great work Rod. Nice to see a Defender featured for a change. What do you do to improve an auto Discovery 2? Cheers 👍🏻🙏🏽🦘
Len Beadell opened up the out back in Land Rovers.
I’d love to see some transmission dissections.
We used to have a Ford Territory that lost all its transmission fluid and destroyed itself, I would have loved to pull it apart and had a look inside, but the old transmission just got taken away I’m assuming for remanufacture.
The Auto transmission is a bit of a “magic box” and it’d be great to demystify it a bit.
I agree with you the older Land rovers were better than most things that were on the market back then but now they're making for cities not for the outback and they're making them with so much computer stuff that you need a degree to even change your brakes on some of these LOL
Love this shit, no bullshit
The reason why the centre console looks so factory is that it's a direct copy of the 1997 North American-spec (known as NAS) and 50th Anniversary Defender 90 console, which were the only two production Defenders to have an automatic gearbox from the factory. Most people just use a Discovery 1 or 2 gearbox and gear shifter, as the V8/Tdi/Td5 engine ranges were shared between the models and therefore largely bolt-in fitments.
Cover anything or everything, a viewer from the other side of the pond watching to see and learn more about other countries and their Off-Roading. I've sent links of you sending it on 4WD 24/7 especially when the one with your son. The look on his face priceless.
Have you worked with or on any of the AW-4 transmissions?
Yes we have done a lot of work with the AW-4 as they are almost teh saame as the Toyota 340
Great video showing customer cars. Keep them coming. Also fixes for common issues for other vehicals. Do you have a fix for the torque converter issues on Holden Colorado's?
I'd like to see a 70 series auto conversion breakdown. What goes into it, how long it takes etc.. Most don't know that you need to put a new cruise control in for example..
Tassie one too mate 👍👍
for the Australian army the land rover created the perentie
Hey Rod, great video, definitely more customer rides. Really anything that's different to the standard Nissan/Toyota conversions. Ever done a conversion on something like an Iveco Daily or a Mog?
Love your channel, have you ever done a 105 1hz? I love my 105 and a 5 speed auto would be awesome
I work at a defender shop in the united states. I was hoping you hand another option for us. I have done abou 10 of the ashcroft conversations. They are well set up kits.
Yes please, would love to see a GU LS swap
Also the landrover defender 130 the longest wheel base which is less common now
Yes more rides good to see what use work on. Have u done auto upgrade on nissan np300 . If have what have use done
Maybe an R mod would be good to see.
110 autos are cool, have to say that as I'm doing mine... :-) Not sure I like the centre console, but hey ho! it's based on the NAS version. Mine will be a little different, better though as still able to have the cubby box in.
They didn't even use the 4 bolt converter plate & V8 converter? But still an awesome idea & kit for the defender owners 👌
thank you for your detailed video
what put Isuzu engine into discovery 1 out Dmax with auto
Show us everything Rocket
You should try driving a truck cab or single cab whatever you want to call it the seating position is alot different or one of the 200 or 300tdi models the seat can't go as far back as the one in this video
Would love to see an auto conversion on an n70 hilux 🤙
What options are around for the 100 series cruiser? Upgrading the old 4speed auto to a 6 speed auto in the V8 petrol would be awesome.
Hey Rod, thanks for the vid of the under appreciated Defender. Is that ZF gearbox the 8-speed version similar to those used in the BMW 3 Series and VW Amarok? If so they are great gearboxes.
No Ashcroft use the 4 speed ZF transmission.
On a more positive note, longer and more detailed videos regarding the transmission change would be good
it should have diff covers, because steel on diff housing is very thin ;)
i have a disco 2 td5, do you think its worth upgrading the transmission? its an auto already but would a better transmission make a difference?
Does anyone know where the rear sliding window monsoon/ wind deflectors are from??
Might be the first to travel the tracks they are probably still out there broken and rusting after the driver was picked up by a landcruiser.
Thats coming from a brit who knows a landcruiser is the best 4x4 by far 😉
Do you have a dealer / agent in the UK for early VDJ78 auto conversations?
How would you improve a ZF box that’s in a 96 Range Rover 4.6 v8?
Hey Rocket, what will it cost me for wholesale automatics to upgrade my valve body in my PX3 3.2? and can you do a ride before an after in a PX3. cheers
What oil do you use in that transmission? I've got a 2014 Puma with the same transmission but I don't have that compushift display. I'd like to add that as well.
thinking if you have a auto for a 300 tdi defender as ive done 360km on the same r380 box thanks
Hell yeah customer rides.... But quick question, do U do manual conversation? Got a Holden trailblazer which never came manual.....
Very difficult to do electrically as the engine management system won't function properly when it can no longer see the transmission. I'm sure it can be done but very costly and difficult.
they are a not a bad wee engine not to hard to get up to 200 hp and around the 500nm mark
Do you do a Cummins engine conversion for landrover defender?
Do you do Landrover defender conversions for LS V8 engines
but will the conversion stop the axles breaking , or was that just your droving methods ?
does this also work on the aussie army perentie?
hi Rod, love to see more of customer rides regardless of make and model. have question....my son has a 91 rangie still with the original transmission oil cooler in the front (long cylinder shaped one) would Wholesale have an aftermarket transmission cooler and will Wholesale remove and fit new one? Thanks
We have a brilliant Heavy Duty Dual oil cooler that would work well with the ranger. Here is the web link: automatictransmission.com.au/shop/universal-dual-cooler-kit-3-8-9-5mm-barb/
@@WholesaleAutomatics thank you for the information. With rangie I meant 1991 Range Rover Classic. Will this unit still work? thanks again
Can you fit an auto to an ex army rover with the Isuzu motor? Love to see that off road..
Yes we do John, check this video out:
ua-cam.com/video/_1ZNGBxwXdg/v-deo.html
Can't i get convert to 6 speed automatic for 2008 puma 2.4 Defender 110?
You can but far more difficult as the engine has no way of giving us an accurate torque load at any given time. We will have something far more advanced late this year but the 4 speed is 100% reliable but with 4 gears very tall in 1st and 2nd gears.
Zf4 speed? With lockup and cooler? The one out of the disco 1 and 2?
Yes correct, 4 speed ZF auto with lock-up and super large oil cooler. Not sure what variant Ashcroft use sorry.
What's the rough cost of the auto on the Defender? - was thinking about it myself
About $20,000 AUD inc gst Fully Fitted as a 4 speed overdrive.
