Replaced the knackerd solenoid plunger and contacts, refitted the starter motor, battery tray & battery. Changed and synced the battery in the remote fob.

The boxes were piling up in the garage so I decided to make a temporary light bar out of an old roof bar.
Think the wire will end up going down the aerial hole in the end.

I did my first Ever big job on my Freelander. I replaced the fly Wheel and clutch complete. This is the first time I have ever done anything like this. Very very scary but I have finished. It appears to be working fine. Followed a few UTube demos and had my Haines book to hand. I had to do it by myself but was ably to borrow a jack and axle stands. It is the most difficult job I have ever done oh boy I am Buzzing. :)

not sure how long it will take me to clean off the dirt and grime I have managed to get covered in.

The dirt & oil will be there for weeks!

Well done :D

Well done! You will now be hooked!
I never take mine to a garage now other than for mot!

Love doing the work myself!

Well done. There is no better feeling than fixing something yourself and knowing you did it right :)

That's no easy task for a novice, especially on your own!!
Well done.

That it will!! Get used to it!!!!
A Land Rover is a hobby not just a car!

I removed the cover on my rear diff, cleaned to within an inch of its life, put new gasket sealant on it & refitted.
Just looking to see if I've got the correct oil for it now! Perhaps I should have checked that before!!
 
I changed my rear diff oil.

What a pain to do.
Had it on ramps at the rear so when I removed the drain plug nothing came out, except the sludge & metal shavings stuck to the plug!
Removed all the bolts holding the rear plate on & drained all the oil out.
Cleaned everything up & refilled, had to wedge the bottle between the wheel arch and the tyre & used a radiator filling cap for putting central heating inhibitor into a system, to attach a hose to the drain hole and slowly fill up!
It went a little quicker when I made an air hole in the top (bottom) of the inverted bottle!
Rave cd said max 830ml, pretty sure I've got enough oil in there.
