Well, I had a voucher for £10 off ebay, so splashed out on a wee, completely unnecessary trinket... What a magpie

Snap. I've just fitted a set of those to mine and I'm very pleased with the reduction in driveline play.

Ah, copperslip!
That reminds me, I'll have to get some of that ceramic grease. Just had four alloys replaced under warranty on account of corrosion where the alloy contacts the hub...

Long due an update.
Click image to enlarge Following some car park rash, I decided to get some protection. Click image to enlarge Bought from Landi4x4bits via ebay. Went from standard back end to corner protected. Click image to enlarge They're ok for the money, although there are some pinholes in the powdercoat.

Also replaced rear brake pads at 47,000.
Click image to enlarge Decided to go with Ferodo pads, they come with new pins and springs. Also changed pistons to stainless from Autoparts. There were some impact marks from rattling about in the box. I know folk slag Britpart, but at least they package the pistons in individual boxes. Click image to enlarge It would have taken some effort to clean up the standard pistons and they would have been even more corroded next time, probably binding on, accelerating disc and pad wear. Click image to enlarge The job would have been a whole lot easier if my Land Rover factory trained technicians hadn't f***ed the locking wheelnut key and nuts. What a PITA it was taking the wheels off, just as well I haven't had a puncture, I'd never have got the wheel off at the roadside. In fact, one of the standard wheel nuts has been damaged - as if the chrome cover has spun - I had to get a 27mm socket and hammer it on, the wheel wrench wouldn't fit over the damaged cover. Typical damaged nut on left, unused spare wheel nut on right.

Spot the difference...
Click image to enlarge I obviously forgot to dinitrol this brake guard - 5 years old and it's in a shocking state. Click image to enlarge I sprayed the other one with corroheat on the inside and brushed clear wax on the outside.
