Having taken off the front axle in order to replace springs, shocks and chassis bushes etc.
About ready to put it back on after replacing all the balljoints etc.
If I grab the top of the wheel and rock it there appear to be play at the top of the swivel - cluncs a bit and moves about 2 or 3 mm. Its not bearing any weight but I dont think it should do this.
Not sure if I should just keep an eye out for another axle as the swivels are pretty corroded but I'm too tight to buy a new pair!
