After owning my 90 for a while and working on both axles to some degree of confidence, I have now got a 110 as well. Unfortunately the Salisbury axle seems to have a lot of play in it, and sometimes makes a real clunking sound when turning a corner at slow speed. I thought initially it was me overadjusting the handbrake and the tight spot on the drum was causing a shock through the rear drive train. I have backed off the drum adjuster which helped, but now the noise has returned. I have replaced the drive flanges on both shafts, but the new OEM or G suffix flanges don't seem much tighter. I have the chance of some drum brake Salisbury shafts to try to see if that helps. If there really is that much wear, is it better to get a complete secondhand axle ? I thought they were pretty robust, but I guess the 110 has done 175,000 miles.
Will worn CWP shim up or is a new one required if it's that far gone?
Cheers
