DETAIL
On 1994-96 Discovery vehicles the front hub oil seal may leak. The following procedure has been developed to replace the existing seal (FTC 2783)
with an improved design seal (FTC 4785). If one hub seal is observed to be leaking, the hub seal on the opposite side of the axle must also be replaced.
Vehicles past the above VIN range have the new seal factory fitted.
The diagnostic steps and repair procedures detailed in this bulletin were developed as an element of the Land Rover Way OPERATION PRIDE. This
TIB provides a library location for PRIDE information within the Land Rover North America technical literature system.
ACTION REQUIRED
In the event of a front hub seal leak, fit the latest improved seal.
