Repair kit or complete Defender swivel housing kit?

A swivel repair kit is normally used when the existing swivel ball is smooth and serviceable. If the swivel ball is pitted, rusty, scored or worn, a complete swivel housing kit is usually the correct repair because the new seal needs a sound surface to run against.
