What have you done to your Freelander today

[JRNORWAY]

Picked up a 2003 1.8L FL 125miles away from home with my L series FL. Towing 2 metric ton wasnt as bad as i believed it would be. "Struggling" a bit on the steepest hills, but overally not a big problem

How/where did you bolt it on?

 

[ZDomZ]

No it isn't made from a defender......

It passed the mot last week so no running issues... Just waiting for the end of the month to tax it!

I guess I am gonna have to do a separate thread on build your own light bar.....

They are clamped onto the rail beneath the trim in front of the sun roof in the same way that a fiesta or Astra roofrack attaches.

Synergy 2 box was fitted yesterday

on setting 2 the beast even feels lively now and the acceleration black hole on taking up drive from standstill is gone.

just need to get a tool to remove the MAF screws so i can put the Pierberg one in

Is there any special name for the "Torx with a hole" ?? I have a set of these hollow torx bits but they dont fit the se screws ................... Grrrrrr

Yeah I know. Was kinda joking (scrap metal??). Won't do it again...

Bound to raise hostilities between the group factions I don't foresee trouble on the level seen in Syria, but those 'military' icons will be gunning for you.

Hehe Lucky for me most of them seem to have a sense of humour.
