Hey mike, Yh I had thought about welding but I'm likely to have a cage installed at some point and when i do this bar will have to come out. Yh the screen lind of makes them look a little close but they have plenty of clearance and unless the shocks fall off they shouldn't touch 😅 The bolts were put in with captive washers, so if a nut does come undone the washer should hold it. I do weekly nut and bolt checks on most bit of the car anyway and always check before going out on track so the bits shouldn't be going anywhere anytime soon lol Its a great bar and you can definitely feel the difference and I've got plenty more going on soon so should be fun to see the difference

@TrackCraftPerformance great stuff can't wait.

Hey To be fair quite a few things 😅 Anything from leaky hose to transmission failure causing excessive resistance. It's just a tick box exercise to see if you can narrow it down

No trouble 😁👍

Yh found out after as I had a look over the calipers on the rear. Was happy to do the refresh though as one was original and not working great and the side I had worked on had a refurbed unit in it but again wasn't working fantastically so was happy to get them on there either way 😅 The fronts I didn't mind the work to go up to st220 stuff 😂

Cheers 😁 I should be at the summer action day at Combe and will be on track for that. But also planning track day calender at the moment and will hopefully have an update soon 😀

Hey mike, cheers 😁 yh big 300mm discs, more than I had on the Freelander 😅 certainly stops the car well

@TrackCraftPerformance Hi Alex, oh so you had them on the landy. If you don't mind and I don't like to ask. How much did it cost for the fronts (landy) for everything and what size are they. Only if you don't mind me asking are they vented aswell thanks Mike ps what brand of pads

Hey, no worries at all It's been a while as haven't had the Freelander since last November but I remember it was the drilled and grooved kit from mtec brakes. They did a kit with pads and I went with that. Very good brakes for the landy

@@TrackCraftPerformance was they 300mm

Honestly I can't remember, I think it may have been 280mm on the Freelander. They never had huge brakes on the Freelander so don't think they were massive

Hey With the new solid flywheel it actually felt smoother than before. This could be due to the old flywheel being pretty worn, it was rattling and was definitely causing some vibration. After the swap the car felt much nicer to drive. Smoother through the revs and felt easier to control if that makes sense. Had the Freelander for a while after this and did plenty of off roading with no adverse effects of the swap, I believe the solid mass was weighted to match the dual mass. Hope that helps

Merry Christmas Ian 👍

Merry Christmas mike, hope you had a good day

Hey Thanks for the comment. As far as I remember the tube was never blocked on this one? I had the filter on the turbo vent pipe bit but the red one just came up to bulkhead and attached to a bracket. The car was written off last November so it's been a while but from memory I never had anything blocking the vent

Hey mike, lots of plans with 3d printing. Making final adjustments to the Hyundai bits and video will be out then. Got a few bits in the pipeline for fiesta too. Think I did gearbox on Freelander but can't remember if I did a video 😬 never got around to injectors unfortunately, it was on the books until it was written off

@TrackCraftPerformance ok. All the best for new year

Hey, H4 sorry. Forgot to put that 😓

@TrackCraftPerformance - nice one. Video is useful. :) I have to swap over the nsf bulb. Hopefully i wont need to remove headlamp assembly, as the access looks much better on the nearside (1.25 zetec 07 plate).

Glad you liked the video 😁 yh the nearside does get a lore access which is useful. Almost impossible on the offside with the st as it's all cramped in in that side

Hey, thanks for the comment. All lines were plugged in back to where they went and came from. It's been a while since I watched this one back but the only line slightly altered was the line that ran over the engine and back down to the solenoid unit. I rerouted it to go to the back of the engine which shortened it by a fair bit and kept it away from the top where they wear often. No issues with driving or reliability after relocation so assume all was good. Car was written off last year so unfortunately can't quickly dive back in and show via new video 😢

Hey, sorry not sure what you mean? Both went in with the led vertical, so I guess with the LEDs being either side the lights themselves would be at 3 & 9 if that makes sense but this is how we were told to install them. Beam pattern has been fine for 2 MOT's using these now so no issues at the moment and still in the car now Hope that helps

Hey, I did check before hand with the company I got the MAF from and they said they were happy for to use just the sensor itself, but to keep the original housing. I had noticed the 5 and 6 head bit after, just one of those things I never paid attention to until about 6 months later 😅 Had black smoke out the back of the Freelander, was very sooty. Went away straight after, and engine ran far better, was almost in a limp like state before hand

Glad you liked the video, best of luck with the oil change 👍

Currently stock, however I do have plans to change that ahead of next season for some of the events that I'll hopefully be taking part in 👍

@TrackCraftPerformance nice. Do you ha e the part numbers for what you used? I went in the page, but doesn't seem to be the same as what you have got?

Hey Yh sure it was a combination of these two: Camber: www.satchellengineering.co.uk/product/fiesta-st150-camber-shims/ Toe: www.satchellengineering.co.uk/product/fiesta-st150-toe-shims/ I had the 1 degree and 30 minutes for camber and toe respectively. Hope that helps 👍 Could also drop them a quick message to them and speak to Tony, really helpful chap and will definitely help sort you out with what you need 👍

@@TrackCraftPerformance cheers mate

Hey, thanks for the comment. It may well have a ball bearing but I couldn't see anything when in there. The manual I had listed it as a drain plug and instructed to undo it to drain, as well as a few technical documents on forums etc I can only go by then really, short of stripping it all down myself to look, but don't much fancy that 🤣 The cars had no issues since and gearbox still silky smooth so happy with result I don't doubt what you say, thankfully nothing was knocked when working so maybe saved myself there 😅

@@TrackCraftPerformance he's right, the ford ib5 transmissions don't have a drain plug at all, this transmission is filled for life from the factory, the tech manuals state that fluid should be drained by removing the gearbox and drain it via the driveshaft hole, or to empty the gearbox with a suction pipe, if you do it via this hole, not everything will be drained, that bolt is for the selector shaft interlock mechanism, it has a ball detent on the end and should be sealed with thread sealer aswell when placed back, also it depends on the car on how to fill it, on some cars the gearbox needs to be filled via the breather hole on top, because the fluid goes above the height of the filling hole, and in other cars it needs to be filled 5 to 10mm below that filling hole.

@@osmium_fps6082 hi man can u help me, my filler plug is sheered i have no way of removojg it how do i top the gearbox oil up via the breather.

Hey, thanks really appreciated that. Glad the videos have been of help 😁 no plans for a new one yet but I won't be away from land rover forever 👍

Hey, glad you liked the video 😁👍 Yes a flush is fine for these engines. I usually use a proper flush oil and then drain for the proper stuff, either that or for many years I dunno sone seafoam in the oil about a week before the change and that does very good as well Hope that helps 👍

@@TrackCraftPerformance hi mate thanks ,that's very helpful ,really appreciate it ,I'll get it sorted this weekend

Hey mike, thanks it's taken a while but yh really happy with how it's starting to look. All my cutting discs I got from APD, you'd have to speak to Ed there as he's the one that sourced them for me. They seem to be good as we've cut through some pretty heavy duty steel with them etc 01793 839919 Ask to speak to Ed and hopefully if he's free he can help out

@@TrackCraftPerformance hi Alex , yeah will do. Thanks mate 👍

Hey, yh stock engine and exhaust😁👍 just the brakes, tyres and camber shims done so far

We really need to book a proper track day together 😅 get like 4 or 5 sessions starting together and see an average 🤣

@@TrackCraftPerformance I'd be up for that

Thing was flying 🤣🤣

Cracking graphics mate 👌

Haha cheers bud 😁💪

Generally yes, if the car is level you can in most cases fill until it just reaches the full plug. When I did mine and put the amount it stated it was right to the top and that was after a full drain. I'd say they didn't fill correctly if it was that low, very unlikely it would leak to that unless the drain or fill bolt weren't currently tightened but you'd see oil everywhere in that case. My guess would be either didn't care or car wasn't level when they filled.

@@TrackCraftPerformance thanks for the answer !!! Yeah thats what i thought, it was like this on my other car, but i did not find any information about the IB5 ahah! And yeah no leaks, just poor maintenance from the previous owner :/ See ya :)

depends on the car, on some cars it needs to be filled above the height of the filler hole via the breather plug, and on other cars it needs to be filled 5 to 10mm below the filler plug.

Hey Most common are a knocking noise when pulling away or stopping. Also sometimes under hard acceleration 👍 Generally if you can shake the rear diff and move it about they are well and truly gone, needs to be very firmly in there

@@TrackCraftPerformance thanks mate

Hey bud, thanks for the compliment. Always nice to hear and appreciated 👍 Best of luck with yours 🤞

👍

Actually my friend, I knock a nasty (rare) Volvo v70 AWD (1998), French plates (RHD) ..very serious wagon... and a Left hand drive Peugeot 406 saloon, (moved back from France last year). ...and then, then Landy, to which I hasten to add, has no spark plugs and stinks. But, I'm 58, what this Landy oil, (air) filter?? ...never seen that! .. Coupla' stick of dynamite gets the Petrol Volvo going! (Indestructible). Please do more vids, ! James (Norfolk UK)

Haha that's quite the collection, I do like the V70's Haha yh I've got a few more upcoming soon, had a bit of a break but back on it in the next few days

No worries 😁 hopefully helped 👍

Cheers mike 😁👍 Yh I was quite surprised at that 😅 I've done them in the past and as you say, scaffolding is required 🤣

@@TrackCraftPerformance getting lots of noise from underneath the dashboard. Sounds like a cd changer back window still not working, number plate light not working, demister not working. I haven't a f. Ing clue what to do fuses all ok.

Hey mike Can't remember off the top of my head but that did happen to me a few times and it just needed resetting. Unplugged battery, waited about 5 mins and plugged back in again. Then opened and closed rear door and it then worked 👍 I think the sensor trips and thinks the boot is open so it opens the window. Hopefully that helps

@@TrackCraftPerformance Thanks Alex will try again in morning

Awesome, let me know how it goes 👍

@@TrackCraftPerformance will do. Even the demister won't work

@@TrackCraftPerformance Hi,Alex just to let you know got landy boot door sorted out. It was. A tiny little micro switch under the door lock handle. Anyway what a pain in the neck Got a auto spark,y for a price 225 told him don't want shares in his company told him to walk away in jerking movements. If you know what I mean. What a rip off.

Hey mike, Thanks for the comment 🙂 The other side actually looks like it's been replaced already and is far newer and better condition than the passenger side. Gave it some t-cut and lacquer and it's near indistinguishable now so I'm pretty happy they both match. MOT was done straight away and beam pattern and levels as well as lumens were tested and all match so a good result all around 😁

@@TrackCraftPerformance 👍

Hey, thanks 😀 I'm not sure it would the SD4 is pretty different to the Td4. Best bet would be sending off a quick email to barbarian racing and seeing if they have a kit or can get one for the SD4 👍

@@TrackCraftPerformance ok! Thanks man

Yh I was quite surprised, very impressed so far now I've driven the car a bit 😁

TRC4201 TRC4202 apd.co.uk/ TRACK15 gets you 15% off as well Hope that helps

Cheers bud They are the 20mm spacers from barbarian racing 👍

Haha thanks, still getting used to the car and the tyres etc but I've got a few more sessions again soon and some at Silverstone so I'll see how it goes lol

Haha thanks, I'll give kost if the credit to the fiesta and tyres more than me 🤣 Yh, typical bugger cars just push it past there and kept pushing me out which was annoying but still got a few good passes in and I'm sure the fiesta is going to only get better 😁

Ah decent, they are fantastic quality so well chuffed with mine. Going to get some decent denso plugs in mine soon to fully utilise them

Hey, thanks for making me aware of this, I do apologise it doesn't show up in my studio but yh on UA-cam it seems they have put their music over. I'll re-upload when I can 👍

Yh was a great session to be fair, much more enjoyable than previous shows. Ah i did wonder where you went 😅 hopefully cars all ok now?

@@TrackCraftPerformance just noticed it’s me behind you in thumb nail ! Got any more pics? All good now ready to go again September 7th

Haha I was the fiesta going past in the blue, I don't tend to go crazy on action days as it's not really the place to go absolutely hell for leather but I certainly got them warm 😅

Hey, glad you liked the video 😁👍 The button should react as soon as you begin to push it in and activate. As far as I know they are not adjustable, they are a sealed unit and typically only respond in one way. Hope that helps

Haha yh I did think about it, instead of taking the plastic trim bit off. But to be fair it came off a lot easier than expected and the bolts didn't snap 😅 once off it poured pretty well and only a tiny bit leaked back into box but that was easily cleaned off to be fair. Normally use a split bottle for pouring oil back in to engine 😅 easy, cheap funnels 😂

@@TrackCraftPerformance 👍👍👍

It was a fantastic course and 100% worth doing. The Freelander did great as well and definitely surprised me with what it could do. Shame I didn't get another chance before it was written off 😞

Hey,sorry been a while since I recorded this one so can't remember everything said 😅 I know cb are not private and on an open air. I think I remember not putting up the recording of me driving home as people were talking and they may not want me plastering it on UA-cam (especially with the language 😂) And yes I know cb can be tracked, in face I've watched people do it but didn't think to mention it in the video. I will say I am in no way an expert or even moderately acquainted with radio transmission expertise, just copied what I had seen a lot of people do when they got their radios and had good results so up high on the car and central. Seemed to get good results and in the following months got pretty used to using it and twerking the settings for some good range 😁👍

Hey yh sorry I'm not expert, infant this was the first time I'd ever used/installed my own CB. I just copied what I'd seen get good results in cars I'd been in so had the antenna up nice and high on the roof and mounted it central. That was the only advice I was given really. Got used to it slowly over time and got some good results with it whilst exploring so was happy with it on the Freelander. Unfortunately Freelander was written off before I could do some of the proper treks I had planned so never got to test it fully out in the back and beyond but did some good trips around Wales and Salisbury 👍
