Cheers any special equipment needed or can I just jack it up and set to with my spanners.

Normally just jack up and support with axle stand and away you go with spanners and socket set.
but on a freelander 2 they are coil over type so will need coil spring compressors and a few other bit & bobs
best to ask over in the freelander section on the forum

Welcome to the forum

Be careful if yer do the work yerself. There's a lot of compression in the srings, waiting to release if yer let them go. I would guess a garage would charge 2 or 3 hours labour + supply of parts. A tire fitter place would be cheaper.
