Series Land Rovers, Options
Over the years, Land Rover offered a number of dealer options for Land Rovers sold in North America. Among the more popular were free-wheeling hubs, winches, the Canadian made Kodiak heater, and overdrives. This page links to scanned images of a number of advertisements and instructions for some of these options.
Should you have copies of any old promotional material for other Land Rover options, or fitting and operating instructions, xerox copies or scanned images would be greatly appreciated. Much of this material has been lost and few copies continue to exist. Parts listings and diagrams help other enthusiasts keep their equipment functional. Pictures of various options, where any other material is unavailable, would also be very much appreciated. Paper copy can be sent to Dixon Kenner at 538 Kirkwood Avenue, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, K1Z 5X1, or images (jpegs preferably) to dkenner@gmail.com
