    That's the exact repair I'm doing right now and the same side. In actuality, I'm replacing the wheel bearings, but one of the caliper bolts is seized and I can't get it out! Good job on adapting. I was laughing about traveling with a trailer or second Defender for all the spare parts. I have had that conversation a ton. 😂😂

    • @HaveFunAndGo
      @HaveFunAndGo 6 місяців тому
