Not sure if anyone has done this before but I’ve a L series freelander I’ve picked up for cheap a few months ago my current mods are 3 inch homemade lift, BFgoodrich mud terrain tires 31x10.50R15, 30mm wheel spacers, homemade roof rack, led light bar pod lights ect, full straight pipe cat gutted to side exit, homemade egr delete, turbo twisted to 20psi with boost gauge, evry mod (leaves a smoke screen)

Nicely built, how did you get the camber straight on such an extreme lift? (hippo's usually run into difficulty with camber from 2" never mind the 3") And how are the driveshafts liking this articulation?

I’ve had no issues tbh the camber is hardly noticeable with the size of the tires It’s for off-road really hasn’t been registered in two years the drive shafts seem to be holding up fine they have had lots of abuse on back roads through fields, deep mud ect
 
Cool, glad you've no issues with the camber, did you make wedged shaped spacers for the lift kit, to enlarge the slots for the "crash" bolts, which are the ones that go from the hub through the strut?

Also, the 31" tyres were ballsy, the largest you can fit without spacers is 29", larger than that fouls the spring seats, but looking at the 29"s on mine, there isn't a lot of room before the tyres start catching the bodywork.

Ye the rubbing for me isn’t to bad I’ve mostly cut off bits of plastic and bashed in the body with a hammer it only rubs when going up a hill while turning sharply anyways I’m not to bothered with what way it looks the paint is real rough
 
Would make a terrible road car - but as an off-road hack its pretty cool. So long as those huge tyres don't mean you're burning the clutch out.

yup I’m sure If I took it through a mot they would have a heart attack haha clutch seems good the tires even spin when you dump the clutch on road
