Hi Nodge68, Thank you kindly for your reply, im really struggling to find the correct part as I suspect the length will be quite critical, did you know anywhere I can find a parts diagram to identify the correct part number, It came off the car on the way home and its completely underivable...

Hi, Does anybody know the part number and supplier for the bolt that holds the lower tie rod to the engine (1.8 Freelander 1), mine just came off and is now underivable!

Hi all, after a wee bit of advice, I have just become the proud owner of a Late Series 2 Land Rover SWB. She has been off the road for 20 years and needs some welding, that aside does anybody have a list of suggestion to recognition a vehicle that has been un-used for so long, all in all she is...

Thank you for the advices, I will order some new callipers, Does anyone know a good brand? I normally go OEM but didn't know if other brands are any good?

Hi Andy, Thank you for your reply, Just to clarify, I have tried to compress the calliper with bar but it docent want to go back the last 5-7mm. Am I correct in understanding that I can use a wind back tool of either direction then? Lsty how do I tell if the callipers are at the end of there...

Hi All, Im trying to change the brake pad of my F1 but am struggling to compress the callipers without a tool. I have found a few cheap tool on ebay but they are sold as Left Handed and Right handed, does anyone know what type I need for the front of my 2004 Freelander?

Thank you for that, unfortunately its the CV joint itself that has gone, Im surprised there is no one doing a replacement but maybe it easter just to get a hole new prop.

thank you Artic2 & Nandad, I will have a look at them, it is just the CV joint at the front of the prop, Do bell do these? I consent see them on their site?

Hi Nodge, Thank you for your reply, Its the front one with the CV joint, according to the Bearmach website it is made in Turkey, I don't know if that good or bad! I know the rear one is a GKN and thats normally a good brand, its just some aftermarket part are of such poor quality. I got some...

Hi All, After a little bit of advice, my 2004 1.8 freelancer has developed 'rumblings' when turning right around corners at almost any speed ( Not left). The symptoms are a general feeling of wheel wobble when cornering and vibration when turning right, it can also be felt throughout the...

Thank you for your advice as always Nodge, I am halfway thought the removal and should have the head off by tomorrow if I can get some Torqes bits to do the head bolts. I have seen a fully built up head but its not supplied with the cams, is it hard to swap over the cams from the old engine?

Hi All, I am after a little bit of advice, I am currently removing the head of my freelander 1.8 as the head gasket was showing sines of failure and I wonder what your thoughts are on skimming/reworking the head. I have had a lot of contradictory advice on this. Some say to send the head off...

Hi All, I use to drive the local Exmoor RUPP back before NERC came in to action. I had heard some years ago that a lot of these where on there way to becoming BOAT but nothing has ever come of that! Does any one know of any lanes that are still legal to drive on Exmoor? or can we drive...
