Personally I wouldn't class 80 (where the limit is 70) as overly excessive so not sure why anyone's got upset
Try the wheel balancing it won't cost much - see how you go from there.

you know what its like on the forums tho, somebodys says somat simple, and you just wait for it to start:doh:

These vehicles were never designed as high speed cruisers.

Know what you mean, but they cruise so effortlessly, you'd think they were............well compared to a tractor

Why cant anyone on this forum give a sensible reply, Try asking here Land Rover UK Forums - Powered by vBulletin a lot more sensible. Take a look at the rear diff mount, that cured mine

Actually Jodsclass, if your FL is like mine then the speedo reads 16% high, so you were actually doing 69 MPH. No problem.

Because some of the girls on here just love waving their handbags about, and the mods just let it happen.

Noticed that on the way back from London on Sunday. On the M1 Speedo said 78MPH and sat Nav said 66MPH. So I infact wasn't speeding, and the judder continues. I think it may be the side steps causing abit of it so going to take them off.

Could be the tires. I used to have Bridgestone Duellers and my freelander went fine at 80mph. Since I've switched to Goodyear Wranger AT/R's there's significant more vibration at high speeds. That's the price you pay for better offroad capabilities...

I've got the Goodyear Wranglers on mine, that could explain it then.
