Righty ho...After posting earlier in the week I decided to take the beast by the horns and change the swivel joint today....all was going swimmingly and I managed to get everything off without too much bother and then started to reassemble. All was well until I cleaned the inner drive shaft and noticed some rather serious pitting on the top of the universal joint, looks as though the bearing inside the stub axle has bust and has caused the damage. Here lies my problem....for which I willing to marry off my daughter for assistance! I really need to get the beast moving again as it is currently sat on a neighbours drive who has kindly lent me the space for the weekend. It is also bank holiday weekend! Does anybody local(ish) have the parts I can pay for or suggest anwhere open tomorrow in the Surrey area where I can pick up at least the bearing and possibly an inner drive shaft? I am indebted as ever to the members knowlegde and expertise, my daughter is on standby!!
