So far so good but i will keep an eye on it as i know when it come in when the N/S footwell mat has water/ small puddles in it 
The O/S one only let a bit in once in a while so i'm not to worried about that side but will see as the time goes by  Clayton.

Yes i was getting water in Procta but i was going to put some genuine gaskets on but i remembered that LRA had done this and had a read of both his threads to find out what he had used Clayton.

Hopefully so then, you could always find a nice big ford to drive through fast to test it

So a little update on Millie
The Saturday just gone and she went in for one of her 6,000 mile services, all oils changed as well and all went ok with that
The last service i think she had new brake pads on the back, i was trying a set from terrafirma, one of there own ones, all was ok to start with, but as time went on, they started to squeak more and more, so i stuck it out until this service 
In the mean time i was doing some homework trying to find out what make of pads i could replace them with, i found some in the end by accident as they are not clear to find on their website
I'm using these ... Click image to enlarge I decided to put new front ones as well, these are from EBC and they are greenstuff 4x4 suv etc . . . As they have been on for 5 days now, i am very impressed with these, even getting them bedded in, which there was no loss off braking when needed and will update when i have put more miles on Millie Clayton.

Always good to have different reviews on pads, especially from a wagon who is used as intended

Thank you Mash
It does help others in to decide one way or the other Clayton.

Certainly does, especially if they are a cheaper or more effective than genuine parts. 90 wolf - Jasmin http://www.defender2.net/forum/topic39408.html

I think for the price of them, they were well worth it, best pads i have had for Millie to cope with what i have loaded up and towing with

Might have to get some for the wife’s dc, it had new rear pads put on last year and they squeal as soon as they’ve warmed up
 drives me nuts. Ray
