Interior progress has slowed down as I had a nasty rattle, was pretty scared to even look what it mite be. but feel better now I know engine is still all fine so gearbox but this isn't
You can just see the bearing casing broken here.
center bearing out of the double jointed prop today and a pile of bits left.
Got the prop rebuilt today and back on tonight for got to take any pictures of it rebuilt as i was running out of time at work to thought i better take some of it refitted with new nuts and bolts, #
Sorry about the poor pic's all took on my photo but with poor lights and flash.

While its on ramps I couldn't help me self but offer up my new diff guards I got for my birthday.

I was only looking at resealing the front diff as I had a slight leak but while I was waiting for the oil to drain I'd found i'd fitted the rear guard in a few mins.
:tup:]
Also been sorting out my front diff guard while waiting for parts, I had to make a spacer to get the guard to fit better also took a few tweeks in the vice, so not overly impressed with it, May be should of gone for bolt on not weld on.
Offered up to check fitment and see where i need to clean up to weld.
Tab's were welded on friday night and primed,
As you can see I gave the old welds on the axle a wire brush down and paint to as they were a bit rusty as can be seen in my last post.
Ooooo look how clean that engine is [cool2.gif]
All done
