Yep with a hand from my bro'. Him being a sparky helps.
Drove it carefully as the swivel bearings are very loose.
Got the parts at 17.10 this evening so too late to start but tomorrow i'll be having a go at fitting swivel repair kit and new disc, pads, brake pipe and braided hose to near side front of Disco and just repair kit and braided hose to offside as that has new disc and pads on it already
Got inner hub seals for rear as well but think thats goin to be done Friday.

Drove down to Braintree today, left in plenty o'time and managed 125mile round trip on quarter of a tank...really getting into Radio2 now for two reasons, firstly I'm getting old and secondly I have bought a plug in iPhone/**** nav charger and it interferes with KissFM a buggery. R2 is fine though

Stripped the O/S front swivel joint. I'm glad i have an angle grinder, those stupid torx screw heads in the bottom bearing had to be cut through. as did the surrounding metal work. The other bolts were so rusted up i had to use the two spanner 'flat pry bar' method of getting them undone. Now I ain't showing off by saying I used to bench 165kg as a training weight (Fat and old now admittedly). But, I swear it took every ounce I had to get some of them cracked.
Inside the housing everything was mangled. Bottom and top races were in bits, swarf and shards of metal everywhere. Complete rebuild this weekend. Might as well do Calipers and Discs whilst I am at it.
