    FL1 2004 radio upgrade

    I wanted to still be able to use the steering wheel controls, would that be possible? Probably will look into a Sony unit

    FL1 2004 radio upgrade

    Hi all, Being a Defender guy, I'm a complete noob in Freelander stuff. My better half owns a 2004 Freelander, with the facelift dash. It has the integrated radio, but I wanted to give her an upgrade with a Bluetooth capable radio. Is this possible? Will the use of the steering wheel controls...

    Hub centric wheel spacer problem

    The hubcentric thing of those spacers is on the wheel to spacer interface, which is needed for alloy wheels. Don't worry about the spacer to hub interface. Like it was said, modulars don't even touch the hub center and those things get beaten up around the world. About offsets and wheel...

    Bfg km2 235/85 16 Vs 255/85 16

    My previous tyres were 235/85R16 BF ATs. They weren't 32" even when new. Closer to 31,7" I switched to 255/85R16 KM2 last year. Nothing but good things to say. On Wolfs they are very tall, mine measured close to 33,5" (could be sold as 34" tyres). Gearing is spot on, even better on the...

    New diffs doubts - dual Ashcroft ATBs vs single Detroit Locker

    Thank you so much for all the answers. Well, I ended up deciding against the Detroit Locker. On the other hand, I found out yesterday that I can get an absolutely killer price for an ARB locker through my mechanic. I said I didn't want to drill the diff housing, but the price and functionality...

    Bonnet striker with spare wheel

    Well, I got the problem solver the most surprising way. I think this is very valuable info tho have in the forum. It turns out a 300Tdi valve spring is not only a direct size fitment to the bonnet striker, it has also exactly the strength needed to lift the spare wheel. In fact, it's such a...

    New diffs doubts - dual Ashcroft ATBs vs single Detroit Locker

    Thanks for all the answers May I add that although my Def is a daily driver and not driving offroad everyday or even every week, when it does it goes into some demanding trails My biggest fears with each option are: Detroit Locker - ending up crappy or dangerous road manners. Since my budget...

    New diffs doubts - dual Ashcroft ATBs vs single Detroit Locker

    Hi guys, Next year I really want to add some traction upgrade to my 90 300Tdi. It is a daily driver, commuter, travel/expedition vehicle and also sometimes weekend warrior. I know, that's a lot to cover. I don't really have interest in selectable lockers, don't want to drill the diff housing...

    Bankz's 110 Double Cab

    Importing is just as bad. With our law you have to pay full plating tax in an import. I was once trying to import a 130 from France at €10.000. After tax it was well over €20.000. Some cheap ex-fleet 110 HCPUs pop up from time to time. I've considered to get one and swap the whole tired engine...

    Bankz's 110 Double Cab

    Nice! I'd like a 110, but prices are crazy here in PT. Nearly everything north of €20.000, and mostly TD5s. I really prefer the 300Tdi. On the shocks, don't they bottom out without the extended bumpstops?

    Bankz's 110 Double Cab

    Hi there How are you finding the 110s confort vs the 90? By the way, I'm sure you mentioned it somewhere, but are you new shocks +2"?

    Bankz's 110 Double Cab

    Yes, makes sense. My 255s on Wolfs, stock HD suspension and 30mm spacers gets really really close of the eyebrow on full articulation, but make no contact on body/chassis/wheel well. Yours should be 24mm further out. If your problem is rubbing on the eyebrow, don't forget that the axle kind of...

    Aftermarket or original door seals

    Got myself a part of Britpart front seals. The foam inserts were way to thick to shut the doors, had to remove them. But I can't compare them to newly supplied OEM ones, so I rest my case

    Bankz's 110 Double Cab

    Here are the 2Inch ones: http://www.2inch.pt/produtos.html Very good prices and quality from those guys. By the way, where do your tyres hit the arches? My 255/85r16 KM2 were taller than those (33,4 or 33,5") clear everything with standard suspension

    Bankz's 110 Double Cab

    I always prefer bumpstop spacers vs extended bumpstops. You have the Terrafirma TF515 1" spacers. There are also 2" spacers from the Portuguese 2Inch brand

    Bonnet striker with spare wheel

    OK, you Sir are a genius Nothing against that, but I never saw the Wolf carrier for sale and I doubt it's legality here. Also, I like the 2nd wheel on the bonnet, it's just the opening that's bothering me

    Bonnet striker with spare wheel

    Hi all, Needed to mount my second spare on the bonnet for an upcoming Africa expedition. My fears were confirmed, the striker spring is too weak for the spare (Wolf wheel + 255/85R16 KM2) so it wont pop the bonnet without help. Is there any bonnet striker specific to be used with the spare on...
