Hi,
Thanks for feedback and advice. The collars are still there, will try to remove the bolts now when I have bolt extractor. If it fails I could well end up in deciding that the bushings are perfectly fine :-)

Hi,
Yes I know, quite weird actually. But I tried all angles without luck. I thought there should be a small difference in height between the drop link mountain and lower spring plate. Will measure properly next time I remove the tires. might be something wrong, don't know if there are...

My car is a 2004 FL1 1.8
I heard a lot of users that are happy with the Delphi clones but never...

Hi
I'm having problems to remove the bolts for ARB, will try with bolt extractors. Can I replace the original ones (FS108207L) with a M8 13mm head rated 10.9 bolt? The others are expensive to buy over here.
Thank you in advance

Hi,
On my FL 2004 1.8 it's a standard M10x1.0. I attach some photos of dimensions as well plus the reason I removed the gear knob :) .

Hi,
I don't know but will remove gear knob tonight or tomorrow and can check. My car is a 1.8 Freelander manual 2004 facelift so maybe not the same?

Hi,
New drop links fitted, went smooth. The only hassle was not enough room on the right side to torque it properly.
Next is new ARB bushings.

Hi
To say I did it today would be to lie, but the last week or so I have replaced water pump allt belts including timing belt, new inlet gasket and rear drums and brakes. No big surprises more than some bolts that was very tight plus the previous owner stripped the thread in the head. After a...

Hi
After changing inlet gasket, water pump and timing belt my radiator decided to give up and start leaking. Not much, mostly weeping but have to do something about it and K seal is not recommended.
Have I understood it correct that I have to remove front bumper and then it's easy accessible...

Hello,
I have replaced the Lokuts (DYH100980) with new ones. After torrential rain I noticed the inner roof was damp. I removed everything and will now use the five remaining lookouts...
So before I continue, shall I use adhesive on the foamy sealant fitted on nr 3 here...

Hmm, sorry for stupid question.
Isn’t this seal meant to slot in and then clamped by the bolt between lower and upper timing cover?
Its a tad oversized.

Thank you Andy,
Seems I didn't read it through properly... so 30 nm plus 120 deg it is
I had to manufacture a plate to lock the flywheel and haven't had time until now to remove the bracket. Theres no room to use a torque wrench so I have to fine tune my wrist. Now I will assemble it all again...

Thank you very much, then I do as you advise.
The torque values are they 85 nm for the M12 and 45 mm for the three in the block?
Just like to verify I’m looking at the right values in rave.

Hello,
I have started changing the timing belt on a FL1 1.8.
After struggling with the flywheel cover I now have the inner bolt for the engine mounting left. (One of the two close to the engine block)
The extension rod start to twist so I’m afraid I will break something. I’m away atm so...
