    You will need a hub nut spanner

    Re: gasket between drive flange and hub, I always used a bit of gasket eliminator/goop as well. You can make a gasket out of a Manila Folder.

    Order we seals........

    Pull one of your other drive flange bolts out and try it in the hole that is missing a bolt.....just to check the thread isn't stripped.

    I would only buy quality named bearings......your bearing joint in tamworth will be blue to get them in...as other have said I doubt they will be worn out.

    Thank you to everyone, I love this forum almost as much as my Landy! I may sound like I shouldn't leave home, but I like to check. Thanks again, Grant

    Hey Grant,

    Wheel bearings - Timken anyway - are Timken Set 37. I just bought a set for the front hubs on my Perentie. Any decent bearing place should either carry them or be able to order them in.
    Landybitz offer a replacement wheel bearing kit per side c/w Timken bearings, Corteco hub seals, thrust and locking washer, nuts and drive flange gasket which seems fairly good value to me. (No affiliation BTW).
    Drive flange bolts are M10 x 50 lg Grade 8.8. It's worth checking them all; I recently adjusted the existing front wheel bearings for play and every bolt was stretched from over tightening. Any good engineering supplies stockist or fastener specialist will carry the bolts.

    Good luck, Dave
