    Clutch and Fly wheel change

    I have to change my Clutch and flywheel along with CV joint and both axel ball joints this weekend as I don't think they'll last much longer. The axel ball joints are not a problem as I've done one on the other side, they just take ages to do. My worry is the clutch, is there anything I should...

    Left turn Traction Control

    Disco 2 TD5, traction control kicks in when turning left and nearly stops the car dead in the road. No alarms stored so looking at a hub, from what I've read and what I can figure out it's looking like the drivers side front. Am I correct in my thinking before I buy the wrong hub?
