Summary

■

Change the LH rear mudflap

Recommendations

We have chosen to fit original rear mudflaps (LR055332LR and LR055340LR). These mudflaps are the only ones to bear the Land Rover logo. They are delivered riveted to their bracket.

Land Rover parts suppliers also offer adaptable mudflaps. These do not have the Land Rover logo. They are delivered without their bracket.

On the Defender 90, the RH and LH rear mudflaps are not symmetrical. The LH mudflap is recessed to allow the exhaust to pass.

We have mentioned nutsert in the spare parts list even though you probably won't need to change them. This is just to give you the reference in case one of the very oxidized fixing bolts damages one nutsert during disassembly.

Required Tools

Identify the location of the 3 bolts securing the RH rear mudflap.

Identify the location of the fixing bolts

Op 02

Unscrew the 3 mudflap fixing bolts. Use the 8 mm socket spanner.

Remove the Defender 90 rear mudflap bolts

Op 03

Remove the mudflap.

Take this opportunity to check the condition of the 3 nutserts crimped into the rear crossmember of the chassis. Do not hesitate to replace them with new ones (NN106021) if necessary.
