Fluid From Behind passenger rear brakes. Any idea
#11
If I get this thing apart and it is a hub as I have read quite a few bad stories about it being this issue and a new hub being the remedy. Would I need to buy the complete new hub (AB $400) with abs sensor or is this something I can trust to get from a local dealer who has a used, but warranties hub although without sensor for $150.00 and buy the sensor for 50.00 saving a bit of change?

I see. Are hubs know for being repeat offenders? I guess why risk is? LR here wanted 699 for the damn thin so I started hunting other spots based on wanting to bang it out this weekend, but wanting to know if it's the Hub I can get the part double time.

192k
I got 192k out of my OEM hubs and replaced them with OEMs with about 50K on them. I believe I paid < $100 a piece with ABS connections.
My logic was if the first set lasted for 192K I should be good for another 130K from the used ones.
BTW, I did both at the same time. Only one went south.

it all depends on how they have been used..keep fresh gear oil in the diff and never take it off-road they will last a long time. I have a friend that has been through 2 on his Jeep within 30K miles but he takes it off-road in mud a lot.

Is the $200 price difference + shipping worth to have a brand new hub versus the one I can pick up here in the city. This will be my first experience with hubs in a land rover and am not sure how prone to failure these things are.
Guess I won't know for sure until i pull it this weekend as to if I even need it or not, but I'm planning for it.
Getting after this tomorrow. Wish me luck or else ill be in here looking for solutions.

Will @ roverguy took care of my hub issue by sending me one with abs sensor for 120.00 Shipped and was nice enough to throw in the $1.00 seal and a T-shirt/Sticker kit.
Now the fun begins as i have to do the repair in my buildings parking garage between the hours of 6pm and 9am and night this weekend due to the HOA complaining about the last time i had it pulled apart I figure it was someone from the management company which keeps an office downstairs complaining.
wish me luck
