Most need an air compressor and application gun. Don't have such things sadly. Unless we could borrow ?? Cavity wax seems the thing, but high pressure needed for the distances.

Maybe a Dinitrol product??

Found these. I took a 3 Door FL1 sill which I made some cross section photos from. Maybe useful for rust proofing and wax injection. Note that the grommet in the rear wheel arch covers the back end, the plastic door trim screw mounts get you into the outer sill and the cable loom mount holes...

All sorted and ready for new owner. Really nice vehicle - NOW :) https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/5-door-td4-manual-new-clutch.399156/

As stated. Vehicle has had a replacement engine (112k) and new Borg & Beck clutch. Tyres are as new, well worth a look if you want a 5 door TD4 Manual. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/317016824076

Tis only the rear ??

V6 has a different VCU to TD4 and 1.8 petrol. No damper fitted. 3 door and 5 door are same length wheelbase. If yours is missing do a search and check IRD and diff are not damaged before fitting then do the one wheel Up test afterwards to check the new VCU is not too tight which will destroy...

Is that a filter in the brake reservoir or has it been filled with tomato soup? 😃

Two very different emotions guys !!

Not very often, fortunately, I get "one of those jobs" ! Offered to replace a strut top mount for a mate. Both strut to hub bolts and nuts seized solid, like they had become one piece of metal. My 350 + ft lb impact driver wouldn't touch it. Nut ended up smoking!! Eventually got one to move with...

FL1 is auto trans fluid which is red / brown. Think OP has FL2.
