Hi Shaun, your explanation and photos are fantastic, thanks for taking the time to post this. Just wanted some advice though, I have this leak problem as well and want to go ahead with the overhaul but want to get the seals/bearings & inserts before I start taking the Disco off the road as living in rural Spain I don't have access to many LR spares and once the the thing is in bits I will have no transport. I want to order the parts on line so can you tell me what is the OD & ID of the bearing required, or better still its reference from "Simply Bearings Ltd" What about the inserts where did they come from? Do you have any specs for them or a reference. Any info would be most helpful.
Cheers
Rob
