Leaky fuel sender - The black bit that the pipe connects to is slightly loose in the white plastic housing which causes it to leak when tank full
Is there a glue that will resist diesel and stick plastic??

Drop arm ball joint - Fitted new one, Gaiter split after 4 weeks - rung Paddocks and they sent a new gaiter free of charge - Yep you've guessed it 4 weeks and this one has now split - am I doing something wrong?
Noticed the drag link does not let the drop arm ball joint sit level. It always tips to rear of truck - Or is it just £$%" part and can you get just a genuine gaiter to fit a britpart drop arm ball joint??

Phew!!

Thanks - James
 
loosen end of drag link and twist is so joint sits level then you wont split gaiter ,two hammers with one as anvil will looswen threads if hit all round rod were thread sits

Same happened to me, I fitted a new Britpart ball joint gaiter as I was in a rush and weeks later it had split. Ive since paid a local indie LR garage to replace tthe whole arm. I reckon they will have used Bripart so Im keeping my eye on it and will return my landie if it splits again.
