nuts & gaskets
does anyone know if i'll need to change the hub nuts and drive gaskets when changing discs and pads on td5?.
I know in LRO it says about changing them, but just spoke to another garage who wanna charge double price of paddocks and even they were unsure which hub nuts i may have.... said i may have double nuts???? know im slightly confused

I think you are right. The Td5 has 2 nuts. I think you may need to change just the washer at the most. Try post it on the Td5 section. Puma 110" SW

Just done the same job myself, but on an '07 Puma - you definitely will need to replace the gaskets, they are easily torn but cheap. The hub nut is either a double one with a washer which is folded to retain the nut (new washer required), or a single staked nut which needs to be replaced.
Landrover state that the drive flange bolts should be replaced every time, (they are 10.9 high-tensile bolts and an absolute bitch to remove if one breaks - DAMHIK..)

It was the late TD5s that had the single nut IIRC - a dealer parts counter should be able to tell from your vehicle's VIN or reg no. (Or anyone with access to Microcat)
