    Clay, I was referred to you by some folks in San Jose that advised you make a rear tire carrier for Defenders that also mounts a pair of jerrycans and hi-lift jack.

    If so, is that item still available? Can you provide photographs and pricing.

    Thanks John

    Hi Clay, Are you in soCal? Im in Orange county and in the middle of my 300 tdi swap and I need to look at a finished product. Are you a tdi truck? If not, do you know where I can go to look at one? Also, did you find a ZF? I have a used one with no history. came with my motor that claims to have 80K on it. Bill Jarrard 949-295-1922

    Clay,

    I'm so sorry I never saw this pm, let alone never responded. I'm sure the answer is of no value now, but I hate for you to think it was ignored. I do have the seat skin for the center seat. I actually have two as I picked one up in the UK and stuffed it in my luggage to experiment with before doing the final cuts to the frame. Sorry again. Hope all is well and thanks for everything again. - Dave

    Will do. Sorry for the delay in reponse as I am knee deep in close. I am open to hear about any positions including roles in industry as that it was my currently position is in. I am not looking to kill myself in climbing the ladder to partner (tried that at McGladrey and the 2008/9 economy took care of that pipe dream. Looking for a steady pace now that I have 2 kids under 3 and realize it is for the most part in the hands of the employee to manage their work schedule. As far as doing any offroading I will have to get the household settled before even thinking about setting out for the mud as the wife will kill me. I will give you a ring when I get settled into NC in April. I still have a 90 build to title and sell in CA and my time hear is fast approaching an end. We are going to try to finish up the Gen III conversion this weekend as I need to get the car out so Nick can work on his Gen IV. I would have gone the route of the Gen IV but he had the 3 sitting there already tested in his truck with the drive lines and everything. I couldn't resist.

    Clay,

    My wife tried to get something over at Grant but the office seems to be in a transition at the moment and I am not sure it would be a great place to be anyway. Another Audit Senior Manager is leaving so who knows what that means. I will call a friend in Audit and see if he knows of anything.

    You are not far from me then. I live just on the other side of 540 from Brian. Looking forward to having another Rover in the area. Have you looked into the Uwharrie Safari in April? I know i will be going, I will see if Brian plans to go. I know a couple of other guys that will be there.

    Ready to see this conversion. I would like to make this conversion in my 90 or Disco at some point. My number is 704-999-0297, Give me a ring when your around.

    Hi Clay,

    I reviewed an older threat regarding your plan to convert the 1994 rear taillights to a 1995/97 LED. Have you completed this project? I am seriously considering this as my next project but I want to understand what the challneges were ahead of time.

    I see you are in San Diego. I am looking to get involved with a local Defender group (I am in Orange County) but have not connected with anyone yet.

    Brian,
    I actually just applied for that position but if there is an employee referrral that than would be even better as your wife would get the $$ if any. I will send you my resume to the email below and she can let them know "at her advice" I went to indeed, looked up the position and log on to Grant Thornton completed the profile ;). By the way what is your wife's full name so I can have it handy when asked.
    Clay

    It will be nice to actually see another Defender on the road as there are so few out here.

    Actually i might know a lead. I know there has been some openings at Grant Thorton. I am pretty sure they have openings on the audit side. My wife is a tax manager there. I am with Martin Marietta in their tax department. I don't know as many people in assurance, but there is always something available around here.

    If you want, my Wife said she can pass along your resume. My Email is below.

    Vince,
    I may have one from the first batch. Is your truck a NAS and what year? I can be reached at 858 349 4358. No relation to the Safari Guard but that did influence the design.

    Hi clay,
    Have you got one for a 94 defender soft top preferably with a hi lift mount and perhaps room for a Jerry can or two? What's the price ( I'm in L.A. Area)and when will one be available? Looks great and reminds me of old safari gard model. Any relation?
