Expert Answers about Land Rover Defender


  • Can you Use a Hitch Extender with the Thule Apex Swing XT
  • You can definitely use a hitch extender with the Thule Apex Swing XT, part # TH9027XT. The Apex Swing XT has 7-1/4" of clearance from the center of the hitch pin hole to the closest part of the rack. So, you only need about 7" more inches of extension. I recommend the Curt Extender, part # C45791. It fits 2" hitches and has 8" of extension. This will give you just enough space to clear your tire. I've linked to a video review of this extender below. Keep in mind that the use of any...

  • Lock For Original Kuat Transfer Bike Rack
  • There is an option for a hitch lock for the original (manufactured before 2021) Kuat Transfer bike rack that you can use other than the Anti-Rattle Hitch Lock for Kuat Transfer Bike Racks # HLT. The other option is a cable and hitch lock combination, with the hitch lock securing to the Transfer's existing hitch pin, and there is an option for 2 cable locks and a hitch lock, or 1 cable lock and a hitch lock: - 1 Cable Lock: Cable Lock and Hitch Lock for Kuat Transfer # # ATSCLK11011 -...

  • Locating Replacement Hubs for European Trailer
  • From what I could find there shouldn't be any difference between a European wheel bolt pattern and a US pattern. With that being said, you can verify this by measuring your existing bolt pattern to make sure it matches up to what we have available. I have attached a great article that explains exactly how to do this. In order to pick out the correct replacement hubs for your trailer, I recommend pulling an assembly and checking for the bearing numbers that are used. These numbers should...

  • Does Yakima Backswing Cut Capacity of Trailer Hitch
  • The Yakima BackSwing part # Y02483 that you referenced is a form of hitch extender as there isn't a way to add the pivot function without also adding length. This does add 14 inches as an extender and also does cut tongue weight capacity of the hitch by 50 percent due to added length. I don't know exactly how long of an extender you'd need but I would pretty safely assume that the 14 inches that this provides would easily be more than enough.

  • Brake Controller Wiring for a 2003 Land Rover Defender SW
  • The Universal Brake Control Wiring Adapter Ford, Land Rover, Lincoln, Mercury, part # 3035-S, will fit Land Rover LR3 and Range Rover within the model years 2005-2007. We do not have a plug-in adapter for the 2003 Land Rover Defender. That would lead me to believe that there is not a port under the dash of that year, make and model of vehicle. You will need to hardwire your Land Rover to accommodate a brake controller. You can do so with the Brake Controller 7 & 4 Way Installation Kit,...

  • Electric A Frame Trailer Jack Recommendation for my Horse Trailer
  • The Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack part # JET-5000 is going to be exactly what you are looking for. Same lift capacity and more lift range so it's an improvement. I really like this jack and find it to be very good and long lasting. I have included a video on it for you to check out.

  • Can Reese Pro Series RB2 Weight Distribution Head 58333 Fit Shank RP3214
  • Yes the weight distribution head part # 58333 does fit the weight distribution shank part # RP3214 that you also mentioned. It will still work as a ball mount without the spring bars connected as well. This would not affect any towing capacities either.

  • Recommended Roof Rack for a 2023 Land Rover Defender w/ Tracks Using a Hullavator
  • I would be happy to list out the Thule roof rack, with Evo crossbars, you will need to use a Thule Hullavator item # TH898 on 2023 Land Rover Defender but I have no idea what crossbars or rails you currently have. It doesn't look like you ordered them from us so I can't accurately answer whether or not they'll work on your Land Rover. This roof rack requires your Land Rover to have tracks preinstalled on the roof from the dealer. We don't have an option for a bare roof. Thule WingBar...

  • Are There König K-Summit Tire Chains for 285/45-22 Tires
  • I do have options but I spoke to Konig and they do not offer the König K-Summit K79 Tire Chains in the US. Instead, I recommend the Titan Chain Alloy Snow Tire Chains part # TC2327 which are one of my personal favorites. They are easy to install and offer the best clearance for vehicles with limited wheel well clearance. They will do a great job of providing extra traction in both snow and ice.

  • Comparing the Titan Chain and Glacier V-Bar Chains for a 2020 Land Rover Defender
  • The Titan Chain Snow Tire Chains w/ Cams - Ladder Pattern - V-Bar Link, part # TC2828CAM, and the Glacier V-Bar Snow Tire Chains with Cam Tighteners, part # PWH2828SC, are indeed incredibly similar. In fact, they are both made of steel, have the V-Bar design, and have the 4 cam tighteners. The only two minor differences are the Glacier chains are 0.01mm thicker in chain thickness (barely noticeable), and the Glaciers can fit a few more tire sizes. Of course, that doesn't matter much for...

  • Recommended Bike Rack for Electric Bike on 2023 Land Rover Defender
  • I would love to give you an exact recommendation on a bike rack that would work for you but unfortunately I cannot as there are simply too many variables. For example, there are many different types of Pedego Bikes and there isn't one rack that works with them all. The rear spare tire is also going to be an issue, you'd need to measure the distance from the center of the hitch pin hole to the outside edge of the spare tire. From there, you can compare this to the dimensions we have on a...

  • Parts Needed to Complete Towing Package on 2020 Land Rover Defender D110 with Factory Towing
  • Unfortunately we do not have towing components like a hitch or wiring that have been confirmed to fit on the 2020 Land Rover Defender yet, but if your vehicle came with the towing package included you should already have a hitch and wiring present though. If you actually just need a ball mount and hitch ball that fit into the receiver, then it looks like the D110 comes with a 2" receiver. For that I recommend starting with something like the Curt # C45230, which can be used for trailers...

  • Recommended Roof Rack for a 2021 Land Rover Defender
  • We do not have custom roof racks for the 2021 Land Rover Defender, so you will need to use a universal roof rack. For that, we have the SeaSucker Monkey Bars Roof Rack, part # 298-SX6000B. These use vacuum cups to mount to the roof and provide you with round bars. They are 48" long and have a 150-pound capacity, but make sure to check your owner's manual to ensure that your roof can handle that weight. I've linked to a video review of this below.

  • Towing Mirrors Recommended for 2022 Land Rover Defender 110
  • Although there isn't a custom mirror like the # L054FR Longview Slip On towing mirror available, we do offer a universal fit option that could work for you. If your stock mirrors are between 4-1/2 and 11-1/2 inches tall, you can use the K-source # KS3990 universal-fit mirror. K-Source uses a unique ratcheting strap system to attach to the stock mirrors which results in a very tight fit with minimal vibration. The dual pane mirror provides an excellent field of vision, so you'll always...

  • Replacement Quick Grip Mount For Thule Ascent
  • Though we do not just sell the rubber that slides over the grip we do have the full piece. The Replacement Quick Grip Mount Assembly - Thule Ascent, Atlantis, and Force Cargo Box - Qty 1 # TH05738 comes with everything that you will need and it fits the following racks: Ascent (TH602, TH603, TH604, and TH605) Atlantis (TH685, TH685BXT, TH685XT, TH686, TH686BXT, TH686XT, TH686B, TH687, TH687BXT, TH687XT, TH687B, TH688, TH688BXT, TH688XT, and TH688B) Force (TH623, TH624, TH625, TH626,...

  • Is There A 12" Hitch Extension I Can Use While Flat Towing?
  • I do have a potential solution for you, but I do not have an extender that will measure exactly 12". At least nothing that will be rated for use while flat towing. I do have a 14" hitch extender from Gen-Y part # GY89SR. This is rated for 10,000 lbs towing and 500 lbs tongue weight. It is recommended to use an anti rattle device like part # e99007 when using an extension. This will help to reduce any additional play at the hitch. You will also need a second hitch pin like the # e98880. Please...

  • Recommended Sidewind A-Frame Trailer Jack That Can Be Operated With A Drill
  • At this time the Trailer Valet JXC Trailer Jack w/ Footplate and Drill Powered Option - A-Frame - Sidewind - 5K # TV94FR you were looking at is the only sidewind a-frame trailer jack that can be operated with a drill using the included attachment. The # TV94FR is a great option for your EPro Travel Trailer weighing 4500lbs as it has a 3500lb lift capacity, and since it is only lifting the tongue weight of the trailer will operate very easily and be reliable for years to come. I included...

  • Will the Kuat Sherpa 2.0 Work With a 2023 Land Rover Defender W/ A Rear Spare Tire?
  • Yes, the Kuat Sherpa 2.0 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 2" Hitches # SH22B will work great with your 2023 Land Rover Defender with a spare tire on the rear. This bike rack also will give you the ability to carry up to 2 bikes that weigh up to 40-lbs each, has a tilting feature to let you get into the rear cargo area of your vehicle without taking the bikes off, and will work with bike wheels that are up to 3" wide. In the video attached you can see this rack mounted onto a 2019 Jeep Wrangler...

  • Which Titan V-Bar Tire Chains Fit Tire Size 255/60-20
  • Yes, the Titan V-Bar Ladder Tire Chains part # TC2828CAM are a fit for your tire size of 255/60R20 and would work great. V-bar chains are really great in icy conditions too since the v-bars break up the ice. I would recommend tensioners too like the part # TCMA2. A single set of chains on the rear axle would give you decent traction but having them on all four tires would work best.
