K2 Design and Fabrication Ltd was formed in 2016 by Dominic King and Duncan Oakes having seen the need for well made bespoke parts, custom builds and general engineering solutions.
We specialise in the design and production of custom metal parts. Our primary focus is in the automotive sector and in the majority bespoke items for 4x4's such as bumpers, roll cages, side steps etc. if its made of metal and fitted to a car then its almost guaranteed we have made that item before.
The skills, techniques and equipment do off course lend themselves to the production of literally any engineered item. This has seen us do extensive work in both the agricultural sector (producing feeders and tractor attachments) and also in home improvements with the production of bespoke balconies, gates and railings etc.

This thing is sick!! You deserve more exposure
Thanks for the kind words
Spectacular
It’s quite a thing 👌🏽
What size and thickness of tubing are you using, where do you buy it
Various sizes and thicknesses depending on the application
Yes! Great build guys. I would definitely be interested. I’m in Alaska so shipping is pretty tuff. Let me know.
That’s a long way to ship parts. We have shipped to Hawaii
Hiya bud your exhaust manifold is a work of art I take it that it's equal length runner's on it, my whippets are the same with biscuits and the cheese block they can be flat out sleeping and I've only got to pick up the packet and walk across the kitchen and they are there with the same look on their faces 😂😂
Thanks for the kind words. There not exactly equal length but quite close. Some people says it’s a waste of time, but it won’t be any worse for being equal. There a great mate to have around, I can’t imagine my day without a dog 🐶
Stunning job!
Many thanks, we definitely try
Hi mate just wondering if you could help me on something . Ive bought some custom an10 oil cooler lines from pioneer 4x4 and the id of the steel fittings is 9.5 mm . It seems concerning . What do you think anyhelp appreciated. Also looking forward to the disco build i love your work its awsome . Thanks
What’s your concern exactly? AN10 is the most common go to size for oil pipes. It all depends on its exact use. I use AN12 for the turbo drain.
Fantastic tune
Couldn’t agree more
Be careful that you're not snapping at your alpha dog who's punishing bad behavior in another dog with angry posturing and/or chomps near their face. If you undermine them and scold them in front of the dog whose bad behavior they're trying to correct. You can cement that behavior in that dog as being okay and you might not even notice the bad behavior, if you're not a dog ...or Caesar Milan. When that happens. Do the Dog Whispered "kkssst" and the guilty one will slink in posture and have a guilty look on their face, but the alpha will meet your eye. Probably with a confused and agitated look on their face., waiting for a command.
Interesting
🫡Wow You sir are talented and meticulous in fabrication
Thanks for the kind words. Years of experience and some serious OCD 😂
Great build can’t wait to see it complete!
Thank you. Hoping to get it sorted and be out shortly. We have plenty of plans for it this year.
were you trying to make the pipe runs as long as possible😄 good clean welding though
The limitations of the vehicle and the locations of the turbo and intercooler sadly determine the length of pipes. We try to keep them short but sometimes slightly longer pipes are just unavoidable. Thanks for the kind words about the welding, we give 100% to everyone and everything.
9 months later… still in suspense. Dyno video?
It’s on the list of things to get done 👍🏼
You already know the numbers. I'm not even interested now, seeing that you do click bait videos. Cool truck at least.@@K2DesignAndFabrication
We actually don’t know the numbers yet. We had an issue with the Dyno
I'm also looking for an OM606 engine for my 97 F150. Does it have torque at low RPM?
Yes, it’s brilliant. Whatever happens don’t put to bigger turbo on it. Something with lots of lag ruins drivability.
So nice 👌👍
We are doing another build now that will have a walk around at the end
Looks amazing. Just bought a D2 and starting on the journey!
There a great car that is underestimated 👍🏼
Great job guys! Really impressive stuff. Huge fan of the Disco 2 as an overlander. Affordable, capable, repairable and it looks amazing!
This car was simplicity at its finest, but pure quality and perfection.
whats the info on the front bumper? looks great. Amazing work.
Not sure what your referring to regarding front bumper.
If these hit the shelves they’d hit my basket shortly after. Beautiful discovery made that bit better by those
It’s a stunner alright 👍🏼
Gday mate. I have watched a huge number of fabricators and car projects on TH-cam over the years and I have to say I am thoroughly impressed with your quality of work, detail of explanation and work processes/ethic in general. You are incredibly talented my friend and an inspiration to budding fabricators. Thanks uploading the video in all its glorious detail. You have another subscriber! Nick from New Zealand
Thank you for taking the time to leave such a nice comment. It’s nice to see that the hard work and dedication we put into our builds comes across on the videos. We have some interesting content coming on the discovery 👌🏽
That is absolutely mint buddy, really want to do this on the back of my 110
We can build anything. Drop an email to the office for a generic price list
That looks awesome, you should be properly proud. I shall definitely be looking to get a pickup bed with drawers off you in the future. Design & fab are obvious givens with you but I'd be very interested to see how you finish the interior of the discovery. I'd be looking at a disco 2 body chop, possibly with a rear window and some room behind front seats.. keep up the good work and the videos please. Gareth
Thanks for the kind words, we take our work very seriously and try to build perfection. We can do body chops, we have done a few. Feel free to drop an email to the office and I can get a rough estimate sent over to you. Cheers, Dom
That is awesome! I love it. I am tempted to order a set of the boxes and the water tank - only problem is that I have the same roof rack with a tent on top and I find that the roof rack needs some internal support which I have not worked out how to do exactly - so I am afraid that the boxes you designed might not fit once I provide the support the roof rack needs...
These boxes are not for sale yet. We modify the gullwings here bespoke to the vehicle. We could modify some gullwings and make some boxes but we need to have the gullwings as part of the kit. The tank was really made as a bespoke one off also, so sadly we would need a car to reproduce. All of this is possible. If you would like to email The office at info@k2designandfabrication.co.uk we can get you a estimate sent over Cheers Dom
Dreamcar 😍 are there any supercharged 205s out there as im partial to a supercharger over a turbo. I also lost the rearend on my 1.9 on a set of bends back when i was in my 20s i didnt damage the car luckily so got it lowered 40mm the following week which kept the rear end in check but it really sacrificed the ride as it was stiff as afterwards which caused alot of squeaks from the plastics . I loved that car
Maybe the 205 I’m building could be supercharged 🤔
@K2DesignAndFabrication ooh I like that's sounds of that , for me it's the constant extra legs a supercharger offers through the band that appeals to me especially with such a light car as the turbo on boost may be a little vicious on the torque steer. It's just my personal preference as I'm sure a turbo would produce more bhp and torque. Unless you combine both 😮😁 fantastic work btw thats a beautiful car and such a dream car for me . I owned 3 back in the 90s-2000s tuned one on the standard engine to 150-60bhp but unfortunately blew it up and thus kept the other 2 standard. Have you upgraded to the gti6. Gearbox? I didn't catch it iif you had the vid. I estimate you'll be about 230bhp, 180 torque
What did it make? Unless I missed it on your videos you never announced what this made at the dyno???? Love the builds and fab work!
Not revealed the power yet, that video is still to come. Thanks for the kind words, we try our absolute best with all of our fab work.
@@K2DesignAndFabrication eta on the update video? I'm curious 🧐
We are waiting on a Dyno repair
I didn't think trucks existed in Britain🇺🇲🤑
This was a U.S important that a friend brought over and we purchased from him.
Tell us how much?
These are built bespoke, with enough interest we could produce some off the shelf but at this point we’re still looking at numbers.
how much?
Drop an email to the office with what you would like and we can get a price to you. Info@k2designandfabrication.co.uk
Absolutely top tier work lads love it ❤
Cheers, definitely really glad with how it came out.
Hell yeah!! Nice setup.
It drives really nice 👌🏽
Always have dreams of doing a turbo build on my 106quiksilver GTI
I nearly bought a quicksilver after I smashed up my 205
@K2DesignAndFabrication my mate back in the day had few problems in his red 1.6 rolled it 7 rolls don't a tight lane! The quiksilver feels faster then 1.9 as did the saxo vts swap 106 bit more modern but they still fall apart, replaced everything rear beam lower arms wheel bearings coil pack new starter motor alternator list goes on with little french cars! Had nine 205 gti's last one 2011 was Miami blue k reg power steering & air con 1.9 should never sold it bought it for 500quid with bent valve new head worked nice, was lowered look nice!
Nice job mate, I’ll say 256 bop😄
Close
What epic build🎉
We have some more content about to drop 👍🏼
*Im sure you get this question all the time but i dont see it in the comments. What fuel milage do you get with that setup ?*
It’s hard to say. I found it definitely got better as long as my right foot didn’t get to heavy. I’ll do a test and come back to you with my findings shortly
@@K2DesignAndFabrication That would be great . Thank you !
225bhp. Great welding skills.
Thank you for the kind words, we give every build our absolute best.
Go for it i would like to see the welding!
Very nice job of the manifold.
Thanks you. I always tell people it’s like the most rewarding puzzle you can put together
Not seeing this titanium downpipe on your website...?
This pipe was made completely custom for this car, using this turbo and manifold setup. Unless you had exactly the same it wouldn’t fit. We can build them for anything. Drop an email info@k2designandfabrication.co.uk we can look to get you one made.
What a fantastic job you have done here. Love the breakdown.
Thank you, we do try to keep making everyone keep getting better each time 👍🏼
That’s a sweet lookin tray mate 👍👍🍻
Welds are perfection
We do try 😂
Great job Dom, incredible attention to detail and for such a special car! 👌 I’ll guess at 240bhp
Thanks mate.. Its nice to work on such special vehicles, maybe not as late as 3:30am next time 😂 Check out the last video, there’s a power reveal..
Au top bonjour de la France
Love the outtakes at the end. Never work with children or animals!!! I'm looking forward to seeing you weld it up.
I’ll look to do a weld up video 👍🏼 Yes dogs are very challenging to work with 😂 but a lot of fun
Astra gsi turbo exhaust video soon???
We need a vxr Astra 🤟🏽🤟🏽
I think Dom 280hp 150hp plus 40% for turbo plus hybrid turbo plus cam
Watch the video of the merge collector I reveal the power
Tidy job! 250+ hp would be great!!!
I’m thinking it will be close 👌🏽
I think ya could be doing intercooler pipes on a mazda rx7 fd3s😁
We’re ready when you are 🤟🏽
290
Possibly 🤔
Great content shows lots of work and time put in to the build
Thank you, this really doesn’t show the half of it. This is over 100 hours up to now
Brilliant this k2
We definitely try , glad it shows 😃😃
