Defender pulling to the right. Went to free off pistons on N/S front calliper only to find the inside of the disc covered in grease and pads had soaked grease up. Looked closer and saw grease coming from hub area...black...just like swivel grease! Is there a specific seal I need to order and...

Excellent, thanks for coming forward Flossie and JM. I've been warned glow plugs can snap/ shear......wd40 every day squirted on until the weekend....fingers crossed as I am the definition of ham-fisted.

Vehicle sitting 100 miles away. Forgot at weekend to measure the bolts as two need replaced. Looking for length of the 4 bolts that hold bumper to chassis at the front, and what kind of thread are they please ?
