Defender 130 Galvanised Outrigger Pair

Galvanised Outrigger Pair for the Defender 130: a pair of galvanised chassis outriggers.

Panels for vehicles that get used: Defender door frames, wings, bulkhead sections and floor panels, and the aluminium and steel panels for the later vehicles. Defender panels are mostly aluminium on steel frames, and the steel frame is almost always the part that has rotted. The 130 is the long wheelbase crew cab and pick up, and it carries its weight on the rear axle, which changes which parts wear first.

Fitting

Labour guide: about 4 hours welded. Land Rover changes specification mid production, often by VIN rather than by model year, so send the VIN or the registration with the order and we confirm the part against the build data before anything leaves. It takes two minutes and it is the difference between a part that fits and a return. We are an independent Land Rover specialist and parts supplier. We are not Land Rover or Jaguar Land Rover and are not appointed by them; the model names are their trademarks and are used here to describe fitment. Everything we sell is chosen for vehicles that actually get used: towed with, loaded, driven through water and parked in fields, rather than for the brochure.

Which version to buy

Galvanised is hot dip galvanised after fabrication, inside and out, which is what stops the rust that finished the original. Painted is supplied in black primer and top coat for a correct appearance, with cavity wax recommended after fitting.
