Hi All,

My father in law has asked me to source a Rear Main Seal for his 57 Series 1 LWB. Can anyone please help with this? Preferably in Australia. His mechanic says they have tried "everywhere" but I doubt they have the knowledge re: Land Rover parts that you guys would have.

Thanks,
Mark.

Try Four Wheel Drives: (03) 98 900 509

I just had a look in their catalog, and it specifies a 2 piece unit for $93, but you'd have to check with them for year etc.

Where are you? You can take a chance with FWDs, but they may send you a tail light instead.

Land Vehicle Spares at Silverdale (Penrith) NSW is good, as is All Fourx4 at Kotara.

Google the names for contact details.

hehehe, shonky! LoL. :D also FWD's are not really selling series 1 stuff these days mainly 2, 2a, 3's and up!

you could also try Rover Parts Plus in Ballarat, VIC.

Klattsy,
I tried to get one from Four Wheel Drives about 18months ago and they had no stock (hadn't had them for some time) and quoted a price of about $200. A lot of prices in their catalogue are incorrect, gearbox mounting rubbers (GR1/GR2) are difficult to get so price was $50 each.

If you can't find one locally then maybe you may have to source from the UK.

If Shonky is right and you might get a taillight instead I'll order a couple, have you seen the price of Pork Pie taillights !!!

Colin.

PS: Never changed my rear main seal and the leak isn't as bad as I at first thought.
