Hello, I ordered an engine mount lower tie rod for my Freelander 1 TD4 2002 but a different one came to the one that's on, yet when i ordered it says its for a TD4 (see pics) is it ok to put it on or do i need to send it back for correct one.
Thank you

It'll still fit.
These are aftermarket parts now, so will be pretty much interchangeable.

You could be right there, as they are pretty similar in dimensions.

Check the length between centres, if it's the same, then you'll be ok. If the centres are different lengths, then you can remove the large bush from the new one, and fit it in the old bar.

Measure the same as old one, so fitted it with no problem
