Wheel wobble

<< < (2/3) > >>

Jake:
Whats a lock tab?
 :?

Budgie:
It's like a 2 inch dia washer with "D" shaped hole in the middle that goes between the wheelbearing nut and outer locknut. Once tight, you fold down the edge of the washer to lock the nuts in place.  :wink:

Jake:
It turns out it was the bearing.
The outer one was completly gone!(see below picture)
I changed the 2 nearside ones today and now all is fine and dandy.
Shame she had a flat battery where i have'nt driven it all week.
On the plus side, its so good to be back out of the series 3 i've been in all week.
Dam things given me back ache!
 :roll:
 :D

Thanks for the tips guys
And thanks to Beast5680 for the help via phone.
I owe you all a beer.
 :wink:

Yes Mike, you too.
Get yourself to Billing and i'll buy you 1 there.  :D

Funny story about how i got the parts Mike.
I phoned Land Rover in Coulsdon (South London) on the A23 and asked if they had the parts you listed.
They did but when i got there, there was no where to stop because of road works and the fact that i was in a articulated 40 footer.
So i phoned them to tell the parts desk that i could'nt get near and offered a solution.
The guy i was with drove the truck back from the drop we'd just done and the parts guy stood next to the side of the road.
As we passed by (very slowely) he pasted the parts up and i passed him the cash.
Now thats service above and beyond the normal call.
Adam in parts at Harwood Land Rover, Brighton Road, Coulsdon. You a gent!!
 :wink:
