Here is the bike rack and Freelander:







It is a 3 bike rack with the 1st row taken off as the spare wheel is in the way. The upright is between the 1st & 2nd rows, so this works quite well.
 
I bought it a little present which arrived today.....

as The Freelander has a lift kit, the standard jack has barely enough lift, but this with a range from 265-610mm should be able to cope :D

I think a 4 tonne capacity might just be enough as well.

I didn't want one which had the central screw bit, so this is hydraulic all the way.
 
I extended all the breathers today so I can wade through deeper water.

I the sorted out my Tom Tom wiring, as it occasionally turns it self off, as I have it hard wired into the fuse box. I then fitted a Power magic box to power my BlackVue camera when it is parked. All appears to be working now.
 
very nice looking, I do like that colour,
what tyres did you fit in the end and if you don't mind me asking from where.


Thanks.

The tyres are the ones the Freelander came with :D

General Grabber UHP 225/55 R17.

They look much better with the lift kit than the winter tyres which were 215/60 R16's.
 
I think from the measurements I made a few months ago, that I now have about an extra 70mm ground clearance all round.


ie. the best part of 4" over a Sport :D

They fill the arches a lot better. Is that about as big as you can go on 16's? I need some new tyres soon, I might go up a size or 2 :)
 
More Fun lined up for tomorrow.

In the mean time, I moved my CB as it was mounted to a piece of wood wedged between the transmission tunnel and the passenger seat and I could not operate the handbrake easily:
