    Laning in Herefordshire?

    Hello all :) I was on my way back from a trip to Hay-On-Wye and spotted a convoy of freelanders and a couple P38's, which I'm going to hazard a guess was for a laning jolly. Now my question is if anyone knows of that group or a group in the Herefordshire area? Any info would be greatly...

    Freelander L-Series Van Project

    its been a while since an update was given but to be frank not much had happened, however some recent work and upgrades give me something to write about. I fitted a decat pipe a while ago and have since made it a straight through, which has given it a lovely bark and turbo whistle, but after a...

    Gearbox/IRD specialists?

    Hello all :) I'm going to be taking the IRD out if the FL soon and instead of getting a new unit i may get a repair kit and have a professional assess and assemble it for me. However i live in the west midlands (Herefordshire) and was wondering if anyone lived around my area who knew of...

    Freelander L-Series Van Project

    i took the prop and vcu off because it was stuffed which as a consequence (which i didn't realise at the time) has knackered the IRD :( it made some serious knocking noises when turning a tight corner so i knew the vcu was buggered. I've got a friend who was driving a T5 4motion when the...

    Freelander L-Series Van Project

    Freelander L-Series Van Project

    25 quid…..hell fire! i'll get some for you tomorrow :) if this works (fingers crossed) i'll be getting some proper sofa foam and trimming it to the contours of the rear strut towers and what not and then get my mum to trim it in something useful and fabric related. I'm half tempted to take...

    Freelander L-Series Van Project

    i'll be honest with you….the tyres are bloody horrendous when it comes to the noise level but if you've got a view on things like me, its hilarious :P when your crawling forward you can feel the treads contacting and as soon as you go above 15mph its like a helicopters taking off! BUT...

    L-Series Straight Through

    Thats what I wanted to hear thanks guys :D i think because of ease and security with the weight remaining on the hangers, im going to modify I.e cut into the back box and remove some of the packing along with blocking the perforations of the pipe. See how that pans out...

    L-Series Straight Through

    Thats my thought exactly. I believe as of feb this year tdis need cats so ive kept it for the test in October. The decat hasnt really changed the noise level but made it evvveer so slightly deeper in note. Mpg is improved and turbo lag is reduced

    L-Series Straight Through

    Hello all! (bear with me on this one) I've had a look through the forums everywhere regardless of Land Rovers (blasphemy!!), and cannot get to the bottom of it! I've put a decat pipe on my L-series freelander and soon after cut the back box off. As i soon found out it wasn't acceptable so...

    Forgot to mention about the balancing. You're most certainly right though they did a great job and havent noticed any whobble through the steering wheel.

    Freelander L-Series Van Project

    Yeah they are remoulds and regards to quality and safety ive researched it thoroughly, the only reason I got them was cost as for the time being they fitted the bill. I love having it as a van, no more lugging ungrateful mates about :P its got a huge load space which is ideal and I may even...
