    Pull the bolts and fit mud guard washers to them,it spreads the load and they last a lot longer. Pat

    I feel your pain.

    After 42,000km last year we had to swap out 2 rear UJ's (yes TWO!) AND get the viscous fan welded up.

    I expected a lot more from my 300tdi on 200,000km. I nearly didn't bring it to Australia and considered driving it off the port in Russia

    Wouldn't you think Land Rover could use a better quality spring!

    The fact that it was the only thing that went wrong on a 26 year old vehicle is no excuse.
    thats gotta be crap!Don't you know land rovers, especially old ones,won't make it more than 100 kays without breaking an axle,blowing a diff or just stopping for no apparent reason?Now my land cruiser has done over a half million kays and i havn't so much as had to put air in my tyres blah blah blah
