cambelt change

Other than genuine L/R cambelt kit what is the best after market kit to use, I have used Gates kit on non Freelanders before (this being our first Land Rover) I have also seen Dayco kits as well
All help will be much appreciated
Cheers

Gates or Dayco

Used both in the past

If you opt for Gates, double check the Allen screw in the pump casing is tight. Seen a few of them loose
