<< < (2/2)

Sometimes it is close to impossible to get the top cup out of the arm. I failed when I did my last one and had to leave the old one in.

There isn't any adjustment on them. Just a large spring to keep in place when reassembling it. In situ, I use a small jack with a suitable socket sat on top. Jack the socket into the bottom disc of the joint and remove the circlip. Lower it down and everything drops out. Then, in true Haynes fashion: "reassembly is a reversal of removal"

I MOT'd the Disco last week, failed on a headlight (reflector persished) and 2 brake pipes corroded excessively.

The tester said in all his years he'd never seen such an unwelded "rot free" chassis on a Disco. Then said it was probably my oil leak preserving it (cheeky fecker lol)

All passed now, except coming back from Jersey on Tuesday the clutch went  :roll:
