Hi guys, I've got a Discovery TD5 and I'm planning on removing the body and turning it in to a 100" defender trayback using all the running gear and chassis from the disco TD5. Just wondered if anybody has done this before and what issues I'm likely to encounter?
Areas I'm unsure of are removal of unrequired electrical systems for example air bag suspension, ace, alarm/immobiliser.
Also not sure if the vehicle will need to retain the ABS system for future MOTs as it's going to be road legal using the original identity of the discovery.
Discovery TD5 as a challenge truck, issues?
