Rear brake mudshields

Following on from replacing the front mudshields
https://www.freel2.com/forum/topic39322.ht...p;start=15
Im now looking to replace the rear ones.

Being a 2014 EPB model the part numbers are LR039936 and LR039937.

Unlike the fronts they are not intended to be replaced with the hub in place (stupid design).
But cutting with tin snips allows the mudshield to be twisted and passed over the hub. Obviously being very rusty helps to bend the metal. (see the cut in the pic)

If I can find some at a sensible price I shall cut them and reverse the process to install new ones.
With 4 bolts holding them in place the cut wont make any difference Im sure. Jules

Cheapest rear (late model) mudshields Ive been able to find are from Matlings 4x4 (£33 ea) .

Obviously will need some fettling to get them on without removing the hub.

Many places just dont have them any more. Jules

On a previous vehicle, I cut them, fitted and then tack welded them. Avoided removing the hub...
