I never jack em up to remove propshafts anyway, just crawl under and undo the nuts.

Well, I will probably ask you what I am doing wrong and you will say 'you numpty, take it off the stands'
You see, I only ever had two wheel drive and this 4x4 stuff is so complicated....
Trouble is I am so big I don't fit under the damn thing so I find it difficult to swing the hammer...

Easier in some ways. You can crawl under a landrover without jacking it up, you can't on a car.
I much prefer working on a landrover or a tractor to a car.

Why do you need a hammer to undo prop nuts?

One wheel up on a stand, makes life easier , spin wheel, rotate prop, take bolts off.

I don't it was a joke
They can be tedious if they haven't been undone for some time.
I will drop it off the nearside one and all should be good then
Well, I managed to get the bolts off and tighten up the diff nut........
I just need to grease the UJ's and torque up the flange bolts ready for the weekends play!!

Well, I could turn it with my hand
and thats loose!!I did it back to the torque we discussed. We had to use the impact driver to shift the bolts on the flange
That short 9/16th extension was fantastic

Yep, loose then.....LOL, still a nice easy fix.

Indeed, thanks for the heads up. I must admit I thought the bearing was shot..... It feels smooth now though.
The UJs will need replacing I think but we will see after greasing them tomorrow night.
They don't look that old though?

While you are under there, measure the UJ, so that you can order the right size if needed. Get GKN ones when you order them.

Yep, thats about it. I think they would only have one cap diameter that is used ( I may be wrong) . But worth checking anyway. The overall measurement is the one that can change depending on prop fitted.

Found play in the A frame joint.
Now can't find the spanner to change it.
& my garage roller door is broke so will have to do this change at work in the dry
