Look I to red oxide paintToday I changed the Transfer box oil and both front and rear differential oil. Smelly stuff! Also re-greased the prop shafts front and rear, put enough in to force the old dark brown grease out.
Finally arrived at the point where the Disco II is now serviced on all the checks/replacements in the haynes manual up to the final page. Well all except replacing brake fluid and brake lines. The brakes themselves have been recently changed before I bought the car, so going to put off that part for awhile longer.
The next thing on my list to tackle is the surface rust on rear chassis, it is currently not to bad to my estimation however it will need treatment. Going to research the options available to me a bit further but current thinking is:
1. Wire brush and sand down chassis back to bare metal.
2. Apply 2 coats of Hammerite Rust Beater
3. Put on a top coat of Hammerite
4. Waxoyl or Dinitrol
This all make sense?

Kip and I spent time Sunday afternoon taking the dash out of betsey so that we could repair my dodgy vent flap , still isn't closing properly quite but it was a chance to lube up both vent mechanisms so that they open and close easier ..nice and toasty now inside and no more icy draughts yay..
Washed it and steamed it off underneath.
Maybe find the oil leaks now

you wont allways feel any play or roughness with a bearing thatsworn enough to effect abs sensorThanks, looking at manufacturers now.
A wholly new problem appeared this evening, on turning left I got the three amigos. Out came Hawkeye and see 1 logged fault on ABS of: 4084 - HISTORICAL Sensor Right Hand Front (intermittent sensor output during driving, broken wire).
There does not appear to be any play what-so-ever in the wheel bearing and wheel rotates both directions freely without any roughness. Therefore, I am going to spend tomorrow looking and checking the speed sensor with a multimeter to see if it is at fault. Still, least it has given me a new mini project to investigate!
