Hello everyone,
following on from the above, what grease should be used for the prop shafts? I would prefer to use what Land Rover use but cant find the type.
thanks. |

| The cable tie also attaches to something near the bottom of the seatbelt, to stop it sliding up. I cant remember what exactly, but anything to keep at the lowest point near the seatbelt reel. |
