rubber hose is used as a bumper so not metal to metal,(on the little ear, lever, whatever you want to call it)

Not to long ago I was reading where someone used jeep mirrors, (from a cj7 off of e-bay?) and used a similar bolt system. Anyone recall or have a link. I have the Can am mirrors and after a little dust, cant see anything. Dusted over and cloudy even when cleaned. Thanks

Hello, been reading up trying to find a good solution to my heater always blowing hot. I have checked to make sure the selector switch (hot-to -cold) is moving and it is, but even with the heat off and the vents closed, it blows hot. Has anyone found a way to close the line with an additional switch or value. On this 101 degree day i almost cooked. Thanks

I have had mine replaced twice. I remember someone that found a replacement switch, but the face was plain, no window logo. keep us updated with what you find. Thank you

Welcome. look forward to posts and questions you may have, we are all here to learn.

found additional instructions for my plow at -BRP installation instructions- type in part or kit number. Hope someone can help. Good luck.

Hello,

On my old Commander i used a rear wiper/washer unit from an old mini van. The part was cheap and worked great. Good Luck

Just a quick followup to a question i had earlier. Here what i had welded up and mounted to the rear of my defender. For now a Harbor Freight 3500lb winch. If i really need it and use it i will upgrade to a larger winch.

parts list and photo showing how it installs.

Hello All,

You can add the park brake to 2019, and possibly older machines. Depending on the brake pedal, you replace the pedal or  add several parts (lever, clip,bushing ,spring) and install. I just did mine for the cost of $32. I found the link on Facebook, Defender Nation, or Cab Nation. Cant take credit for the mod just passing it along. Admin, i hope listing the other sites is permitted. I could also list the parts needed if necessary. The other site just has such a good write up on it i dont think i could improve on it.

Thank you

I believe I found one from a welding shop. I will keep you posted

Anyone know of a "bolt on" rear winch mount or bracket. One that sits higher in the rear than the receiver type, hold a 3500-5000 lb winch. I have a kfi tube rear bumper and don't need or want a complete bumper set up. I have seen several for other brands but not the Defender. though i would ask before i start a build. something like this =

DirtRider, bet on the snow...what part of Utard ? I am Salt Lake County area. Show off that 2020 when you get it.

I have a 2019 xt hard cab and have taken a 1/4 inch rubber mat from Tractor supply ( or any farm type store) trimmed it to fit the floor and placed it like a floor mat. Haven't  ridden the bike since but it has got to have some affect on reducing the noise. I am also planning a sound reducing material behide the seat area soon. I will let you know how it works.

Wondering what everyone is using for a am/fm antenna I have a "ssv works mrb3" overhead console. I  was told there is a hide away antenna, but wonder how well it works. Thanks Scott

Any one find an alternative to Can-Am's roof rack. While i really like the style, just think its a lot of money for what it is.

Hello,

New to Defender but not Can-Am. Have had several spyders in the family and past commanders. All were excellent machines, hoping this one will be also.

2019 hd10 cab model. Had a canvas top on one of the commanders but really looking forward to the hard top with cold Wasatch mountain winters. Yes i will ask a lot of questions, and hopefully I can answer a few as well. Thanks in advance ,2

Name 2dogbed,( one of the things that drew me to the defender was the larger bed for the dogs)
