What I repaired today

<< < (5/6) > >>

Paul:
Dave,

Bet you carn't guess what I did this weekend. :roll:

Towing the caravan I heard a small clicking noise,
First I thought I had a stone in the tyre, Wrong no
stone in it.... :shock:  Got to the caravan site ok,
Next day Me and Bev striped it down and couldn't
see anything wrong with the wheel bearing other
than the lack of grease. :(  Repacked it with grease
and stuck it all back together and the noise has now
gone... :D

Thats the RHF done in May and the RHR in July,
I think I will check the other two before I set off
for my holiday. :wink:

matthew:
The only bits I was able to reuse from a failed bearing were hub brake drum and brake back plate :( The bent halfshaft is still stuck in the stub axle in the corner of the garage.

See the thread from about 6 / 7 Dec 2003

davidlandy:
Well chaps

I have checked and regreased all of the other bearings - must be said that I didnt find any dry ones or any lacking in grease. thankfully.

A worthwhile exercise, so I can drive in the knowledge now that my bearings are fine (for now!)

Now, I wonder what will break or need replace next ?   any guesses?

Dave

Anyone running a book??  I'll have a quid on a prop uj.  They have to be the landrover's weakest link. Good job they're cheap.

Duncan Brown:
