Help bearing problem **NOW WORSE**

(1/4) > >>

barmiebrumie:
Please take a look at the pic'y, have just taken it apart ready to fit new bearing & not sure why the oil is that colour :? , also don't know how tight the bearing nut should have been but was not even finger tight :shock:  tabs were not bent over,
No wonder I was starting to get a steering wander & bad rumble from the n/s/f  :twisted: , can someone tell me what iol should be in there & how tight to do the new bearing's.

Thanks in advance  John.

PS:- its a 200tdi.

wing nut:
ep90 1.7l in front and 2.3 in rear ,that looks like someone has used it as a toilet  :shock:

                 ps thanks again for the straps

wing nut:
on the defender its tighten to 50nm and slacken off adjusting nut 90% and then tighten 10nm,checking freeplay... not sure if its the same on a disco :!:

Range Rover Blues:
On those hubs it can be pretty loose, I never run mine that loose these days, you get more brake pedal travel.  About 90 to 120 degrees is fine, as long as some free play exists.

Thats the same colour as my gearbox oil was.

Looks as if you have had water in the diff, check the breathers, joints, etc.

If you need a hand, just ask.

Could do Sunday.

Chris
