The front Puma axle saga continues.

In other words, more or less while Rover was an independent company (up to 1967).

What gets me is the "fix". Surely if the axel was engineered and or manufactured with integrity, there would be no need for the bracket. Otherwise it would have been there from the outset.
Just looks bodgy to me and adds to the unsprung weight, which can't be a good thing.

Actually have a good look at the whole thing. There is no gusset where the flange meets the tube either, on the old one there is, so there's another weak spot. Good thing the breaks aren't too flash.

When the Wilkes brothers were in charge of Rover the engineering side of things was paramount. Sadly things changed when the accountancy department began laying down the law.

Boeing to JLR. "We are having some issues with some of our planes and we were wondering if you could suggest a quick fix for us?"

Our 2012 90 is booked in next week to have the ‘fix’ fitted. I have been chasing Land Rover since the recall was first published. Their interest/enthusiasm to help me has been less than encouraging. I had to prove I was the owner, provided my address email and phone number, but was only after I chased them again last week they advised me to book it in for the work to be done which I have.

Then a couple of days after this instruction I received a registered letter stating this is the fourth and final attempt to contact me re recall.

What a coincidence eh? After two years of chasing them this is just crap.

For info: Just acquired a 2011 90 and on checking with Topix the axle brackets campaign was noted as outstanding.
Called my local dealer in Melbourne and they confirmed the issue and booked it in and completed within the same week.
We are the 3rd owner.
