    Polybush Advice - Discovery 1 Axles To Defender Chassis

    What is the intended use of the vehicle? Personally I would opt for these: http://www.polybush.co.uk/polyurethane-suspension-bushes-components-products/land-rover/defender-90-and-110-to-end-1993/ You can choose the grade you want depending on use. The Super Pro bushes are also meant to be good.

    Freelander 2 off road mods

    e.g. if you are correct, this company (and hundreds more in the UK) are illegally selling bullbars. You better get on the phone quick to the Police.

    Freelander 2 off road mods

    Do you have a link? Although that doesn't say they are illegal. It only states sold or fitting, not owning or using. Also if we employ a little common sense here. Bullbars are not restricted items like firearms. If the above is to be taken at face value then selling a 2nd hand one on ebay could...

    Flames out of exhaust

    Very much this. I do not see how a remap could cause this directly. Not even sure flames from diesel are really all that possible. The photos look like a spark or hot ember. So something hot breaking down between the engine and exhaust pipe.

    So you have no answer then?

    Freelander 2 off road mods

    What country are you in? If you spend some time on Google there are a few images of FL2's with bullbars. But they are in Australia and I suspect pretty rare there. Biggest issue is fitting it to the vehicle. It isn't like doing to a ladder chassis vehicle. If you are in the UK I'd say your...

    Freelander 2 off road mods

    Most of this info is not correct. The .gov site is very clear. Bullbars are LEGAL, only that the selling of them is potentially illegal: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/bull-bars/bull-bars Read it carefully, it has some key words to pick. up on. My hunch is this legislation is...

    Defender Maximum Ride Height Question

    Standard is capable. I think this has extended axle breathers and a rollcage, but standard otherwise: But it was only a short dip. This one is also standard, but got stuck in less deep water. Result was a grenaded engine and ruined transfer box :( Crossing water is fun, but I've learnt the...

    200tdi tuning

    A tweaked Tdi should go well. But it is still a Tdi. If it isn't enough, you either have unrealistic expectations or it is the wrong vehicle/engine. You could look at re-gearing which might help. But remember most power mods increase EGTs.

    Convert 110 to Air suspension?

    It is all possible, but likely expensive. Lots of ways of doing it. A different vehicle A different garage A different parking spot Are all likely better and cheaper options.

    Series Landy Values

    With the 40 year rolling period, there can't be many Series motors that aren't historic now. As for inspecting, well a Series Land Rover has to be about the easiest and most simple vehicle to inspect. If you can't assess one, you probably shouldn't be buying anything.

    Brake upgrade

    Standard Tdi brakes in good order should be more than up to the task.

    Brake upgrade

    If you off road much, esp in muddy water or sand you won't want discs like this. They will trap dirt and wear brake pads quickly.

    What to buy

    If you can get a TDV8 I don't understand why you'd want a 3 litre V6? Have you driven either yet?

    What to buy

    L322 has far more in common with the L405 than it does with any older LR/RR product. Not knocking the L322, but I don't really see the appeal of them that much. There is nothing wrong with them, but they are a huge step towards being car like with a unibody construction and all independent...

    Defender Maximum Ride Height Question

    Where are you? Not many remote places in mainland UK as per your description. For that budget something like a Unimog might suit better or perhaps a boat.

    Defender Maximum Ride Height Question

    Ride height is not the be all and end all. Plus comes with other negative aspects. What sort of budget are you thinking of? Raised axle and transmission breathers a must for water wading. There is also a wading plug to fit. A raised air intake could be handy too. Out of the box some of the...

    about to buy a series 3 109 need some advice

    Depends on price, condition and how much you want to spend on it. And if you are planning on doing the work yourself. Arguably if you want a standard one, you might be better off buying one to begin with. Unless you are getting a belter of a deal. Chances are buying and converting will cost...

    LWB overall length ??

    Tyre size and suspension sag will impact this. Can't see how you could get an accurate or reliable figure.
