I've been away so it's been parked up at work. I'll get a few pics next week. Been on SORN so planning to put a new MOT on it in next week or so, went through last one with no advisories and tester remarking how mint it was ( done less than 80K). It's a nice mettallic green like the one below...

I've a 1998 Di which is practically showroom condition ( except a bit of saggy headlining) if you're not too comitted yet. Really interested in your project, may convert one myself if it looks doable ( and I come across a cheap leaf).

Hi Nodge, I'd looked at LSD as an easier & better solution. Only saw info on quaiffe (ATB/ geared) type and these only work up until the point when the wheel loses traction completely, esentially they'd work better if it had TC as it gives the LSD something to push against(?) as I understand it...

Not going to use these as it's too good to scrap, just need to suss out if the whole loom is one piece and if so whether the abs wiring was present when abs wasn't (fingers crossed). Guessing the Freelander loom isn't too complicated anyway, assume once the carpets up it pretty accessible?

Quick update, been away so not made actual progress apart from picking up a spares/ repair L series diesel to copy the abs off. It's got the same ECU so looking promising and the abs controller ( below the seat ) and servo are below

Quick look earlier and hubs have ABS sensor holes and reluctor rings are fitted to all 4 CV joints ( and are in good condition) so that makes it alot more feasible. The ECU is a Bosch Type 4125 (MSB 101071), I see this listed as for the XEDI too so should do the job. I've seen the ABS ECU for...

Any idea where I'd find a wiring diagram for the L-Series Diesel? I've got the original Haynes on it's way so hopefully this will be useful. Shame Joe_H has gone ( or not by the sounds of it ). Is there anyone on here who's got a good understanding of the early CCU's & ECU's? Apart from the HDC...

It's a fair point, I may do a few light mods and see how it goes. Maybe look to finding another one later on if it's too much of a job, though if I can pick up a good donor car straight swapping everything wouldn't be too bad. Just that L series diesels are increasingly scare and this one's...

Sounds like the ABS and TC would be well worth it and I'm happy enough about the mechanical side but a bit scared of the electrics. If all the functionality was provider by the wabco unit then hopefully the CCU and ECU would be standard across all models ( but without the extra options...

Quick ebay check and the 27VT's from TD4's have ABS written on them. Anyone know if there's an ABS and non ABS version for the L series? Anyone got a wiring diagram for the L series? Need to check if my drive shafts have reluctor rings too....

I've had a quick look at the CCU but not sure which is the model number - I presume it's the 27VT/6EC.

Cheers Hippo, I would just get another one but this is the cleanest L series I could find, only 78K and service history so I'm tempted to do it ( just wary of openenig too big a can of worms). Thanks for the feed back on how much difference it'll make- I was thinking it probably played a pretty...

Can't see this anywhere else on the forums- I've got a basic spec W/2000 L series diesel (Di) which doesn't have HDC/ TC or even ABS (no Wabco unit). Would it be possible to retrofit? I know I'd need the Wabco unit, I guess hubs with ABS sensor holes (not checked mine yet though). Main...

Hi, just got my second Freelander 1 ( though first proper as last didn't have the diff). Picked up a mint L series diesel (78K, VCU replaced recently) but it's the Di not XeDi so doesn't have HDC/ TC. Is it possible/ worth the effort to retrofit? I've bought it to do some green laning so will...
