D'oh, didn't think bout the bigger tyres,lol

this dont make sense, just measured mine, front tyre to arch 155mm front, 145mm rear from arch to centre of tyre/wheel was around 500mm on both

well whatever, Im happy, just finished a day at our woods, although the freelander is still at home as brakes need bleeding Im driving the vitara, but I digress, met my other woodland buddies, and thought it would be a good time to measure ground clearances at the lowest point the defender was 8...

I forgot to take before and after pictures, but took measurements from one rear tyre, before it was 105mm from top of tyre to top of arch, and after it was 135mm which is weird as 40mm has been added, but its sitting on uneven ground so maybe that's why

I cant see how any of the replies have been made to make you feel unwelcome, perhaps you could let me know if I've missed something, perhaps we all should have said, brilliant deal you got there mate, then after you'd payed the same again on another service, and found out from others it was a...

after purchasing a lift kit from ses88 it's taken a few days, but finally fitted freelander lift kit - YouTube

my landy garage £225 service and mot, think I gave him a £5 tip,lol

this maybe a really silly question, but if your getting the wheels back to normal by fitting the camber bolts, and you have changed nothing else, why do you need the tracking looked at?

yup, camber bolts to the front wheels

yeah Im not going to worry at the moment, the tyres that Im running a quite new so would be crazy to change them at moment, will wait till I need to replace, the freebie will be riding 40mm higher anyway so lets see how that copes, (when I get it finished)

even though I'm married to a Yorkshire lass, I'm unfamiliar with the northern word of chew:D it's horses for courses, our private track leading to our woods is so rutted I'm scraping the bottom of the car, which although I'm not too worried about the car, I don't want to "chew" the path up...

Im half way there, backs are done, bloody fiddly, started front drivers side had trouble splitting that ball joint, but got there in the end, have ordered two new ball joints as they were pretty buggered before I started,lol, but got the strutt off, will post up pictures once all done and dusted

so lots of us seem to suffer from the rear window breaking in some way, mine stopped working altogether a few months back, so I was unable to open the rear door as the glass would not drop, there's plenty of posts regarding how to repair, but it could be a number of different things that have...

ok, today was sunny, so started on the front, wanted to start on the drivers side, as when I bought the car, I was told it had a TD4 front calliper on drivers side, and I may need to add a wheel spacer (supplied by seller) of course I didn't do it, so wanted to see if inside of wheel was marked...

started fitting my lift kit today, and notice both mine are missing and full of mud, but I will be taking the tight git bodge approach and making two covers from a 6 pint plastic milk bottle

I knew mine got a little damp, but havent looked in it for about 4 months, had a set of wheel spacers in there that I wanted, opened up, it was like a mini aquarium, at least 5" of water,lol has anyone done a simple bodge of drilling a hole it the bottom to allow the water to drain out

number one, its the way they work?? although mine go out within a few seconds of driving
