Ok so I hit the track rod end with the hammer...hard...really hard...then with the persuader...REALLY hard on the side and it still wasn't budging. So I cut it off with an angle grinder. Now I'm left with this (see images). Tried heat but only got a blowtorch and I don't think it got hot...

Just stripping and rebuilding the drum brakes. Took plenty of pics before disassembling but have a query regarding the forked adjuster bar. The forked end with the longer fork and shorter fork...which way around should it go? Does the long fork go on the front or on the back? Also regarding the...

I finally found a rather nice Freelander 1 TD4 2004 facelift today and have bought it for a little below book price. So far so good, a few silly little faults to get my teeth into...parking sensors, centre armrest, gear knob. Always wanted one and now have one so very happy at this point...
