Do you drive on a lot of gravel roads?
Lot of gravel in the road. Roads are ridiculous..Can't even call them potholes because they are the majority of the surface in many places. Seems like the hubs have never been done and it as reccd that I redo them anyway so I'm giving it a try. Lot of ridiculous jeeps here. That is what you meant right?

Default Noise near front wheel

Hello everyone,

Took it to a mechanic who works on Land Rovers. Was expecting it to be expensive, no less than a wheel bearing as Spike555 suggested. Turned out to be a dry cv joint in the left front. He checked the other side and it was almost dry too. He also checked the wheel bearings and said they had recently been packed. Thanks for your help. I really love this thing.

Lots of Heep Parts laying around, lots of Disco Parts fall off too! Especially during or right after trail rides! Especially with New To ME Rovers!
