Freelanders can be a pain to work on, and when pulling things apart you will be constantly asking yourself - 'why did they do that?'.
Definitely get a Haynes Manual and also buy the genuine thing on CD (Called a RAVE CD) - they are on E-bay but make sure you are buying the right version.
The job is not technically difficult but there a lot of things to be dismantled and a lot of nuts and bolts in awkward posiitons. It is labourious, time consuming and frustrating. Correct, good quality tools are a must.
If in doubt - get a reputable freelander (not all landrover people know freelanders) specialist to do the job - they will know all the shortcuts, have the tools and equipment.
Good luck
