Just a bit of a warning guys and somewhere worth a check.
Never came across this in all my years of LR ownership and did not expect it on a cruiser.
As the MOT is due, I decided to replace the two dodgy wheel studs as I have been driving round with just five wheel nuts and one of them cross threaded for the last seven months.
I took off the wheel and started to dismantle the hub when I spotted the crack below in the shocker mount.
Now I have to go get some welding done before the MOT.
Not the clearest of pictures, but believe me there is a 4 1/2 inch fracture there.
