1. we can do it at work (want to avoid that ATM Im stretching the friendship with 3 civvie rovers on base)
2. do it at my place
3. I can come down and do it at your place
4. at least I can be near a phone or in an area with reception if you need instant help.

You will also need a seal placing tool if your going to replace the seals, the bearings or just pull them out and regrease them, I can get my hands on one for you if you need it.

Thanks mate, another friend has offered to help me too, so i should be right but thanks for the offer and I MAY take it up depending on his other comittments.

As to the seal placing tool - he has one of those too - but what are they exactly (eg a special LR tool, model # ?) and how much are they worth to buy ?

Cheers peoples.

Sumo.

Rotora have been machined many times to within an inch (well a few mm) of their life. Definitely replacement time.
