Ah found that if ye batter hell out of one of the cups it's sometimes easier to get the circlip out ( after givin' it a good dousin' in GT85 / WD40) then repeat on the other onesWell technically I didn't ask how to do it - Redhand generously proffered the info.
That said, I wish I had found it as straightforward as your excellent guide Busterbus - these ****ing UJ's must have been on the landy for a century - the circlips would not budge - seized absolutely solid and it took an hour and a half of battering, hammering, prising etc. Managed to break the Brother-in-law's vice in the process of knocking the UJ out.
For someone used to tinkering with computers, this is a whole new world! I do hope getting the new UJ in isn't as much of a painas getting the old one out!
The rear shaft can go **** itself - I'm gonna nick the shaft off my SIII instead.
Right.. ah'm off. Laters

Not in my landie but been to Tong offroad centre today for a training day with the Response Group. had a great day been ferried round in the Delica I helped fit a lift kit to, the other day. was actually quite surprised how wel it handled considering it's longer and higher than a Disco. and it was on road tyres. But still managed loads of Blue routes and only had to be towed out once and that was cause he got cross axled.
