    Hi folks, What's the max tyre width, depth and size on a stock freelander 2 that avoids rubbing or issues with suspension? And if I go with the muddymods lift kit, does it drastically change the dimensions you can have (of course not width as...

    It was a steal at the price, unfortunately I couldn't stretch any further as we were desperate 🙄 I was searching for weeks, then found my GS fairly local and managed to get them to drop it even more so had to go with that, I was made redundant...

    It is the sort of thing where, never having had them on the D1 nor on the D2, I don't miss them. I do have ACE, obvs, but shen it played up and I pulled the fuse I honestly couldn't tell the diff, even driving down the steep, twisty mountain road...

    I love that "down to" ! 🤣 🤣 🤣 I must admit I am a bit shocked it is only 2 landies. Looks like you really liked your fast Fords. You'd get on with my middle Son-in-law.. Although he is also into Morris Minor pickups! Anyway, she ought to...

    You make me laugh. You say that you don't cook yet it sounds as if you once did. OK you cook on the BBQ, that goes with being a bloke, but does your missus know that you can knock up a smooth Bechamel sauce without turning a hair?? Better keep...

    I don't have the third row of seats, apparently that is what makes the diff. I would hate to have all the hassle of airsprings etc.

    When are you going to do a proper upgrade to a Freelander Warren? You know, an EV conversion. 🤣

    Sounds great. I'd like one of those. Also, will you be doing anymore induction kits anytime soon?

    My immediate reaction was unprintable!!! If she hates them all did she not "vet" you before she married you? My missus did, and she kneew what I was like. And she is into steam in a big way so we kinda compliment one another. She has also...

    I had a feeling you worked in eSpain behind a bar, so maybe your experience was a bit, well a lot, different than mine. So you have a big shed/bar and a noo garage???!!! You'll be like Jay Leno before long!! 🤣🤣

    OK, I'll put you out of you misery. The Collins is a Highball made with "charged" water, (soda water for us Brits) which you put in slowly so it stays sparkling. The Fizz is made the same way but the soda is put in fast so it fizzes and then it...

    If you have increased the compression lot you must expect it to be harder to turn over with the previous starter motor. By how much have you increased it?
