I’ve checked my hubs and I appear to have correct bearings at the rear inner but they still won’t fit tight to the back plate They can’t be right bearings as they don’t fit deep enough in the hub

True could take 0.5 mm of my front stub axles

I’ll clean them up and put them on eBay! I thanks I can’t believe that it’s only 0.5 mm out as well!

I stupidly started this late last summer and work and buying a property has stalled the progress!

Yes that’s correct the inner bearings are smaller than the outer bearings

Looks like they might be wrong then! I’ve spent spent £100 on oem bearings (ffs)

Thanks my LR is SWB on an X reg! Red engine block Ex military

I bought them from Paddocks for my series 3 and I presume that they are!

I’ve recently cleaned painted my hubs and changed the bearings with Timken bearings and new seals to find that they don’t slide over the stub axel! Stub axle is nearly 0.5 mm bigger than the bearings! Has anyone had problems with this in the past? thanks

I need some new pistons for my S3 2.25 engine! do I go for Brit Part or Turner Eng OEM? Any comments would be appreciated Thanks James

Guys, Thanks for the reply's I'll have a go! and just to confirm, that is it best to go to land rover for the seal? or would a Bermach or Equal do? Thanks again

Has anyone got any experience or know someone in the Manchester area / NW who could change an pinion seal on a axel?? I've got limited experience / tools Any comments / advice is appreciated Thanks James

Thanks for the reply, I have heard that some Pro C's shocks rust within the gaiter!? If I was going for the standard shocks, then I was thinking Monroe! But it just comes down to money in the end!

Hi, I'm currently restoring a series 3, and can anyone advise me on what shocks are best with parabolics springs? Thanks James

Cheers! I'm planning on getting my bulkhead galvanised (trying to do a proper job to eliminate rust issues! I'm having trouble removing the rear tub and seat box due to seized bolts!
