The cheapest way will be stick it on a lowloader , as other way insurance etc will soon add up . you could try on here https://www.truckspace.co.uk/

Its an easy enough conversion , if you have a 200 or 300 tdi just get relevant box and torque converter , from discovery . If other model then get whole drivetrain , you need to change rear diff drive flange on 300tdi rear axle to get disc brake back axle . If later 300tdi discovery drive...

Get hold of wiring diagram and see where flasher feed and aircon are common and check for live there ! thats the starting point .

C & U or this disagrees http://www.jonesco-plastics.com/pdf/cv/EU-Directives/uk/Directive-78-549-EEC.pdf mind you it will probably get away with it with that Look :eek: :)

Nice job , its certainly achieved the look ! but save yourself a ticket , rear reflectors ? and rear mudguards ? rear fog max height ?

Autos don't have DMF they have a torque converter , also dont have swirl flaps in a TD4 . The jatco box is very durable. Best of the freelanders , have had several

My Ozzie Rig 300tdi

Used to tow Bailey like this with Defender V8 and also with Discovery , hardly knew it was there http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Bailey-Senator-Montana-5-Berth-Twin-Axle-Caravan-Awning-Motor-Mover-Air-Con-/152154792971?hash=item236d21e40b:g:tP8AAOSwvg9Xeleb

Re axle lift , as my forum name suggests have some experience with 6 wheel rovers , I found even with low mileage usage (Tacr2a Rangerover) as not a shopping sort of vehicle , as you alluded to, tyre wear is considerable . I also have experience of HGV with lift axles and resultant changes to...

They used to bolt them to rear of seat bulkhead !

You can retain the diagonal braces for the slam panel , (important if you are having spare on bonnet ) by using a different cooler , I used one of these...

Bundy pipe length is irrelevant , but for ease of bleeding etc its best to avoid "U" bends continual rise type layout is the ideal . I fitted several remote servos to L/crsrs in OZ , used the mini/MG as others( redboost ) wasnt available at that time . Never found the need to fit a...

If the rad is in good condition , most of the year, and depending on what you are doing , you dont need a fan at all. Once you are traveling at speed :) the fan isnt really doing anything as the airflow is forcing the air thru rad . If its hot and you are say climbing a hill slowly...

Must have had something wrong with it , my 130 mentioned above , was operating at a train weight of 7450Kg with the aircon on/or off didnt hardly affect it , no edc on that . :)

Depending what set up you get , earlier (carp!) or later one (not too bad) its a heck of a lot of work to fit and the later one loses passenger footwell space . It would be easier and more effective to go new after market have a look in Red Dot online catalogue It will (should have ) barely...

750x16 is about as small as you can go alongside a 265/75r16 , hardly worth the effort JMHO ps my 110 back door is original , i braced it up a bit when i got it (1987) it has always had a spare wheel on standard LR carrier , its currently carrying 285/75 r16 BFG MT

I ran 3.9i in my 110 csw in Australia with HD V8 rad (oe ) and just put a 13 row mocal in front of rad far forward so just behind grill . It handled 45C+ in soft sand climbing dunes without any problem . Aircon rads in front of rad is biggest o/heat cause in those sort of conditions , thats...

make sure you mount external fuel pump or filter via rubber , they make a right din if hard bolted . Its much quieter in a V8 than a diesel :) Re oil cooler if you take up rad space and have to make rad smaller to get oil cooler in a bit of a pointless pursuit . JMHO

You might be pleasantly surprised when you mic the bores , have seen big mileages without much wear in bores :)
