I jacked my landy up yesterday when i put some Boost alloys on and the there is enough play to fail the MOT in April. I'd like to get in there and replace them. Can anyone tell me what bits i need to order to do this all in one go. Basically, once i pull it apart i'll be a long way from Paddocks where i'll get what i need for the job, so going back won't be easy.

Also, has anyone got a front wiper delay relay they can sell me.
 
You will need (PER HUB): new hub oil seal, 2 new bearings (get Timken - OEM), lock washer, little paper gasket and some grease.

You can get kits or look on Paddocks (you can get all the NON britpart parts from them).

Bearing is: STC4382G, Gasket is 571752, Oil seal is FTC4785G, and it's either FTC3185 OR FRC8002 and you should buy the box spanner if you don't have one - 606435 ONLY £3 - well worth having.

It's all there from page 2 or 3 in on the front axle section. You will need to look up the dates so you know which lock tab (one has a flat edge one a little lug), on a 300TDI I think you will be on the later lock washer. When I did mine I just bought both because my 90 has Disco axles and all sorts and I didn't know what age the front one was.

It might be worth jacking up the front, taking the drive flange off, taking the big nuts off and tightening the bearing up a smidge - they are probably worn but it would get your some time.

Also follow the tightening procedure properly or they will be too slack or too tight, both will cause damage.

I would also put on a new set of discs and pads; you need to strip this all down to do the discs so if you can afford it, it makes sense to do it now and save messing with the hubs again say in a years time to do the discs and saves time and a little cost long term.

Wow, that's brilliant, way more than i could have hoped for. I really appreciate it.

Discomania, great suggestion about the discs and pads. I think i will do that. Can you recommend parts?

Thanks for the OEM tip, i made the mistake a few years back of buying Britpart UJ's and have had to replace them already with Hardy Spicer.
