get an original LR pump - or at the very least one from Bearmach (which might well be an OEM one anyways)

and treat yourself to a new set of bolts for it

when i had my disco in the end i only used OE parts, they are quite a bit more expensive but you should only have to replace them ONCE, unlike britpart ****e that would break as you took it out the box,
find a good independent parts dealer, and don't bother with paddocks or craddocks

Thanks for the advice...
Have had a look round at prices for a new pump, but am getting a very wide range of prices.

Thanks of all the advice....
This afternoon was spent fitting a new pump. Which went very well.
Well its not fallen off yet...

I got the pump at a very good price from Gigglepin4x4 Gigglepin4x4 : Home of the Twinmotor winch : Jim Marsden down in Sevenoaks. (boy do they have some nice Landy's in and around the workshop)

Right no to the next job...
