    Propshaft IRD

    Hi, Check also the front diff mount, which is known to fail. Sometimes fixing a part will put a lot of stress on a failling part. For bolts they should always be put at same place, there is a lot of force on them, and with time they are bent.

    Freelander 1 Aftermarket CV axles

    Hi, You should use GKN axles, If you have budget issue put an used one. Don’t put aftermarket, they doesn’t last more than 1 or 2 years on common vehicule and can be less than that on a 4x4 because of the heavy angles. You can also change only the side that is broken with GKN parts. Regards.

    Clutch pedal

    I don't like clutch hydraulics, if the pedal behaving oddly once, it can happen again any time soon. If you know how to shift gears with no clutch pedal, it's ok. But it's better to get it checked by a professional.
