Never buy bearings orseals from LR stealers.

always bearing places or the like.

ys prices from auto pro seem ok can pay stuff all for these parts.

just make sure bearings are not el cheapo crap. Use major brands.

Hi Discowhite,

Were those prices from a genuine Land Rover dealer or a Land Rover specialist, I would have thought the LR specialist might have been a bit cheaper than a dealer, but maybe thats where their cream comes from :?:

the bearing price/kit of 75bucks came from Land Rover specialist.
one on southside/boundary road.
ive bought things through mark before, but only when
he's cheaper than the others.

i shop around heaps, its the only way to do it!

cheers phil.

IMO - Only fit Timkin bearings.

I usually go straight to a bearing supplier, if possible take the old bearings with me and get them to match. Usually less than 1/2 price of most retailers and quite often around 1/4 the price of genuine dealers. The biggest drama I find is getting filters at a reasonable price most car shops etc do not stock Rover bits oer here and the price difference on filters can be dramatic depending where you buy. Most time I get them freighted to me. Maybe a good project for one of the moderators to set up a page that contains a replacement part reference chart for alternat Rover bits listin the genuine Rover number first.

You know what happens, traditionally on this forum, when people make suggestions like this ? They get nominated to do it. Congratulations :!: [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif[/img]

$35.00 for an efi fuel filter, for 3.5v8.
now this was a cooper filter.

so i droped into autopro neer work same filter same brand

$12.20.

the part number is WZ479(cooper) and ryco is FI0159.

There are a couple of different fuel filters for EFI RRs. The early EFI RRs used a fuel filter with push-on rubber hoses, later ones had screw-on connections.

The first (which my '86 RR used) was a Ryco Z168 - same as some Commodores and same as the 1989 Peugeot 405 (I used one on my daughter's Peugeot).

Oh, the Ryco website shows the Ryco Z479 as the equivalent to the Wesfil WZ4579.

Oddly enough, their listings under Land Rover only show late model cars. Earlier Series Landies are listed under Rover.
