Following an in situ engine rebuild in late 2009, all oil changed, chassis welded up and electronic ignition, Ive had 13 months of trouble free roving. She even passed MOT last month first time round, with only an advisory for a cracked tyre.
My smugness toward Mrs Stokers modern car which needed £300 of work for an MOT also last month seems to have initiated some kind of fate based incident.
Whilst out and about roving on a farm track, I took her out of low range and back into high, but as soon as we turned back onto the tarmac road, bang! Seriously horrible banging noise from front axle.
So, following a ride on an AA lorry, it looks like its probably one of the front half shafts.
Any advice on this job and if I need any special tools.
