I'm looking for a little advice.
I havea 97Discovery SD with 155000 miles.
"Sometimes" when making a slow turn and braking at the same time the anti-lock system seems to kick in.

The left front axle is leaking andI have a swivel axle seal kit on the way. I think - hopethe leak may have something to do with the brake issue.
Once the kit arrives I'll tear into this and most likley change bake pads and the roters as well, if needed.

Should I look at checkingthe wheel sensors? if so how?

Thanks, Jeff

 

Make sure to replace all the seals, apck the wheel bearings and set your preload. Have you ordered the new Rover swivel grease to use in place of the old gear oil, if not you should, it is far better for the swivels and less chance of leaking.

 

Thanks Mike

My plan was to replace all the seals on the left side only. The right seem fine without any sign of leaks

I will order some grease, I've seen on line it but did'nt know if I should or could use it.

This littleaxle leakturned into a can of worms.
Now I need to replace the swivel ball due to pits , the rotors, pads and
dust cap.

 

I have heard of people patching, but trust me, Just replace it. YOu can get some goo dused parts @ www.roverlandparts.com

 

Too many pits to think about patching. I seen the oil leak when I bought the truck but thought it was only a bad seal or gasket. I'm looking into the used parts andI'll check with them after the holidays.

Thanks, Jeff
