reb78 Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 How quickly do you go through steering column UJs? The ones on the 110 are probably 3 years old, Bearmach items (i think), possibly allmakes and need replacing again. Land Rover want about £60 per UJ. What brands are you using and happy with?

Jocklandjohn Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Personally I've only changed them twice in 20 years. I think last ones were LR Original parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reb78 Posted July 27, 2018 Author Share Posted July 27, 2018 Yes. I guess its the same thing. Originals would have lasted 20 years, this will be the second or third set in about 8 years. Just bite the bullet and get LR parts maybe? Bearmach and britpart both seem to offer oem versions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miketomcat Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 I bought some bearmach once recently as i thought mine were seized. They weren't but the bearmach ones were worse than the ones that were on there. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peaklander Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 I thought one of mine might be on the way out. I took it off when I removed the body but now, in the vice, I can't find any play. I'd earmarked a pair from SP for £21, which are either Allmakes or Bearmach. Probably I'll stick with my 22 year old ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retroanaconda Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 My 90 failed its first MOT under my ownership, about ten years ago, on steering column UJ play (amongst many other things...). I replaced them with aftermarket ones, being young and naive to the realities of what ‘quality’ means in the Land Rover parts world. After being disappointed that they had more play out of the box than the (presumably original) ones that they replace, I stumped up what seemed like a ridiculous amount of money for a pair of genuine ones which are still on there to this day. Genuine will be cheaper in the long run. Assuming the quality is still what it should be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim2809 Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 got sp4x4 ujs on my 110 and 2 years on still as new, gets driven across rough terrain daily so gets a fair amount of shock through them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
