Gromit Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 I rekon an early Disco... This is a defender. Should be similar on yours. This is the right side, viewed from the front. The lock stop is forward (to the left, in the picture) of the silver swivel ball. This side controls the amount of left lock. Wind out to decrease the lock.

Sharp Pointy Thing Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 until your tyres don't rub....if that's why you want to adjust it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

western Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 Yes, thats correct, just enough adjustment to stop the tyre touching any suspension arms/chassis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

western Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 i tried to adjust mine last week and it came off in my socket! probably either the threads have sheared off or more likely you wound it out to far & it's fallen out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orgasmic Farmer Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 Don't forget to loosen the locking nut on the other end of the bolt (ie between the brake disc and the hub flange). Get some witches tiddle in there and let it soak for a while and use a good quality open ended spanner on the lock nut. When this is loose the bolt will wind in or out quite easily.

roachy Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 yeah, that's what i did wrong, didn't notice the lock nut untill after shownig it my large breaker bar, i suppose breaker is the correct word, ha. i found the lock nut before tryintg the other one. i'll have to turn another one up at work.
