    Welded prop to vcu. Will it work

    Cheers. The welds looked pretty good. My dad did it and he use to be a welder. I am getting the odd bang from the rear diff. The mount is totally shot and needs changed now. Tested it in the snow and it pulled easy

    I now have 4x4. No vibrations up to 60. Just a slight noise from my wheel bearing. The rear diff centre mount needs changed as there is a bit of movement but all seems good

    Welded prop to vcu. Will it work

    Freelander heater

    I have a 99 freelander 2.0 td and the heaters are crap. I can do a 20 mile trip and its still cold. They do blow hot air but its not enough to warm the inside. Is there any tricks to sort this out. I'm sure there is info on this but I'm on iPhone and search doesn't work
