NAS D110? You say rear discs's? USA car has drums on back. ANyway, LR has screwed up and not printed any info about rear hub bearing maintenance...Older LR need no nothing, bearings lubed via diff oil. Later cars some brain-o type modified it (without telling anyone at the printers), thus bearing are grease only, and with no maintenance they sieze up. Pull axleshft and look, if axle has a raised boss a couple inches from flange they are grease type. We grind a small flat on this raised boss, then fit GHS190 hub seal, now it's like it should be.
