LOL, me knee says no ..
Can't bend it properly and can't straighten it properly at the mo'. Hospital decided I didn't need surgery, they just pulled it apart with traction, 'manipulated it', which I translated as 'torture the fecker for 1/2 an hour' ... then decided that surgery would have been the better option after all! You'd think they had a clue ...
So will be having surgery as well within the next three months .. in the meantime I'm hobbling round like a #### with a bad knee that's got really bad ..

So, got the stub axle and CV off .. and the CV joint and halfshaft look OK ..
Until you realise you can't separate one from the other so look a little closer and find gouge marks on the stub axle, and the remains of the bearing shell etc
and then find a 'bulge' in the 'flat' of the stub axle ..
So it looks like the CV to Stub axle bearing/seal went, which also fecked the wheel bearing .. or vice-versa! Who cares, new CV, stub axle and fittings and all should be good to go, Paddocks here we come .. except I'll actually use the local emporium, RCV Doncaster - Land Rover Service and Repair Specialists 'cos they're good lads and have been good to me in the past .. and offer a range of parts, cheap (Britpart/Allmakes) reasonable (OEM supplier) expensive, Landrover badged!!
