I've just bought a few bits from Paddocks, good price and it arrived quite quickly, not sure about Scotland though. Only downside is they don't seem to have that many of parts for the RRS 2006 Java Black HST Supercharged |

If you buy a new driveshaft, you will also need a new hub nut. The thread was changed at some point, and the old nit will no longer fit

I was caught out with a different sized hub nut on my Discovery TD5 when trying to change the hub at the side of the road miles away from home. Had to go into a nearby garage and beg to borrow a socket! 2006 Java Black HST Supercharged |

No, the one supplied with the new bearing is the old thread |

When changing the hub, after the bolts are taken out, can you just pull it off, or is it a press fit? seems to be conflicting info when ive looked into doing it! 2006 Java Black HST Supercharged |

As long as the drive shaft has been pushed back then yes it just needs a good whacking.

Is a hammer easy enough, or would a slide hammer be a worthwhile investment? 2006 Java Black HST Supercharged |

A hamer was good enough for me mate. Id imagine a good quality heavy duty slide hammer would make it a little easier |
