Welded rear diff?

How does the 4wd work on a freelander with no tc? Am I right in thinking that the rear wheels only get power when the front start to spin? Is that what the vcu does?

If so then could the rear diff be welded? It would be awesome on an axel twister if I could be lol

Any body else thought of this?

you will be wishing you did not

Reason why?

I'm not actually going to do it but just thought I might be a good mod for a serious off roader who doesn't really like defenders or discos or range rover classics lol rot boxes

Only useful on a non road car.

No serious off roader would by a gaylander. They are ****.
Lol **** boxes -------see what I did???

It would be a pig on the road and tbh I suspect it could probably classed as dangerous.

No smart person would buy a gaylander either. FL2 maybe as they're good on road having sat in one but not for offroading

Well it seems they get more traction than some other Landys ....:fencing:

But no, you most certainly wouldn't want to weld up the rear diff, ours will only use TC in mud pulling a load, never in snow unless you give it a footfull in 1st..

Find that hard to believe, even more so when a large number of them only seem to run 2wd.

Havent you boys got some chassis's to be welding up

no nothing left to weld to but 2wd welded diff mm

i thought scool yard bulling was left behind when we left school oh wait i know u secretly want a freelander and are not man enough to admit it thats why u need to put down those of us who actually have one

these tratter boys could not afford a decent freelander, (LOL) thats why they pick on us
it is too wet and muggy outside for them to do any welding. tokeep the body work together.

ours is riveted ?

My gaylander loves the dirt track so watch out ya`ll !

bumder!

The tratter boy's don't like to admit that not only is the Freelander better on the road but better in the slippery stuff too, and we don't have to be welding the chassis every time it rains!!
