Check the loom as it enters through the floor in the rear left corner by the boot door.

It sits directly over the exhaust and I suffered a similar problem with the fuel pump feed wire touching the exhaust and shorting out

Ok cheers.. only one problem with that... I don't have a boot! :p
 
Oh, I had my rear prop off to clean out the handbrake, I gave the prop a good grease, I tried to slide it in n out and it wouldn't move!? I assume its meant to right? tried giving and bit of a knock too.. still nothing.
 
Props often seize, partially.

It when they seize proper and pull the transfer flange out you've got problems!

My rear is part seized, bother me a lot but never been high enough priority!
 
Where did you get the wide angle joint from matey?? Am Waiting for WKD to make a creeper joint Aframe droper with fulcrum instead of buying the whole frame.
 
Its from X-Eng, cost about £35 if I remember correctly
There is a rose joint Aframe joint that bolts on, without the locking nut it has excellent movement, it still wont unscrew without the nut.. unless your axles does flips lol.

Edit: The rose joint one is from QT originally but there is another out there, they cost about £250!! :eek:

Yes, the X-Eng kit is Very good, Simon the man behind it all is an excellent designer/engineer, the joint will last a long time as its good quality and adjustable, so after your done with it and fit the WKD kit you should be able to flog it on!
As for the difference, I think its about 5 degrees more angle.. but can I notice, not sure.. going to compare these pics with some I took before, might even do a comparison pic for you lot.
 
Wow I wouldn't of thaught it would limit it that much! Am impressed.
Will have to get one sorted ah think!
 
Good stuff I'll invest in one as I've gone the full hog except the joint!
Yeh there always fun lol!!
 
Might be an idea to obtain a second joint fitted into a bracket to work on, save immobilising your vehicle, can be notorious buggers these!
