Hello all !

I'm new to land rovers, I just purchased a 2000 discovery!! I replaced pads and rotors and found a leaky rear axle spindle . I pulled it out, but wondered if it can be rebuilt (bearings and seals) or if I just replace the whole hub.??? I also replaced dif. and transmission fluid with synthetic, hope that was a good idea? It has 73000 miles on it. I hope someone can help!!! thanks ..

 

No, you will have to replace the hub.

I just took my 01 Discovery in for inspection today. Two major issues, brakes need to be redone and also I have a leaky seal on the hub assembly. Two questions for you, #1 I had the dealer replace the rear rotors 14000 miles ago, now they need to be replaced, is that possible or were new ones never put on? Secondly, is it possible to replace the seal (Atlantic British said it was an o ring) or do I need a hub assembly as the dealer says?
Thanks

 

Only the D1 can have the seal replace, D2's get new hubs. Don't let them talk you into new rotors, they shouldn't be needed at this time.
