Hello All,
First post, so forgive me if I leave out any essentials.
'02 Discovery with about 105k and in overall good condition.
I have started to hear a low rumble when driving the car at low speeds and turning to the left. It has what I would call a bearing going bad kind of sound.
I have just jacked the front end up and put the vehicle on jack stands.
While the car is up and I shake the front left wheel left and right, I hear a small clunk and I think this is coming from the trailing arm that attaches to the axle and the frame(trailing arm is probably wrong) attached img shows arm and it clunks at the frame end.
Should the bushing be replaced and can it contribute to the rumble?
If this is a bearing issue, I have not found any threads on replacing the bearings on a 02 discovery?
I have done many other cars/SUVs, how hard is a front bearing replacement?
Also, I go out on the beach with this LR frequently and dip the rear end in salt water a lot while launching a boat so I would like to re-pack bearing anually if possible and feasible.
TIA
