stub axles

<< < (2/4) > >>

blackbob:
when i got my disco the hub seal was leaking so i got a new one
when i stripped it the stub was damaged where the bearing sits and  i had to get a new stub aswell
also cos the stub was damaged it wore the tyre as the last person had a bearing changed and didnt check the stub for damage so do have a good look also check your brake pads for oil contamination :D

denviks:
thanks mate......i did have it all aprt not that long ago. looked fine .....the seal that was in there looked ok but to be honest it could be in the wrong way round...... :oops: .... all the haynes book says is replace the seal by looking at which way round the original is...... is there right way around for it to go.

does anyone know ?

Mark2Disco:
think i put mine in with flat surface facing out ie the bit with numbers
/letters on still visable when fitted in hub

Xtremeteam:
it says on the seal this way round to stub axle  :lol:  should be 4785 No :s

if you have the hub face down the lip on the seal should be up facing you

denviks:
thanks guys.......... .... think i will get on with this job tomorrow with any luck. although she does smell of ep90 at the moment  :lol:  :lol:  :lol: ....and we all love that smell huh
