Now then ive loved my disco from the moment the guy took my money and ran off sniggering....

But at this moment in time its really really starting to get right on my very very very lastttttt nerve

few weeks ago heard a rumbling noise from the drivers wheel... knew what it was as ive had this noise 3 times before.... wheel bearing

luckly enough i had over ordered on a bearing kit b4 so i knew i had spares and big rich was very very kind and came around to my house to fix it for me i did do a few bits ... not much but i did some anyway after many hugs and kissess to rich we got it done in time b4 i had to goto work.

I Pulled off the drive and Popp something wasnt right no power and a very funny noise from that big pile of  rubbish under the bonnet  :evil:

cam belt.... 5 stripped teeth   new belt new tensor thingys etc but no real damage so far apart to my wallet "oh what a shock"

since picking it up friday its done about 40 miles give or take i suppose
and what do i hear today???  :evil:  grrrrrrrr sumthing is still grinding and chattering away arghhhh what now????? ive replaced all the wheel bearings now with the other 3 being done within weeks of each other less then 3 years ago? surely they should last longer than that?

ooo lots of steam coming from my ears now hope no one crosses me at work tonight cos i think ill give em the landrovering lot

bilge rat:
chill mate , i know its difficult but i think its a landy thing . honest. i just fitted a discoparts rear tow set up , found the rear crossmember had gone . so did that got in and the clutch went , did that along with clutch slave, rear main put together now got a real bad leak from the trannsfer box. so thats got to be done. got a fault on me red one not even looked at it . but i know it wont be straight forward, you'll get there. find it strange that all your brgs have gone together, alan.....

Little Chris:
hi mate so what do you think has gone now as me and big rich say where there's will there's a way and where their is a way their is us!   :lol:  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:

so dont worry mate let us know asap and we will see what we can do

Big Rich:
Hi mate

I have wheel bearings on my shelf. I'll come over and help again if you need. :wink:

Rich

skip:
AAH HA! YES i KNEW IT!!!  I'm so happy i'm not the only one who feels like that. :D

I'm actually dreading getting in my disco each morning for the fear of somthing else going wrong or breaking without cause or provocation :? :twisted:

hope you get it sorted ok though.
