Prop shaft / UJs

Bugger!

14 hours at work.... Come back and think I might as well take prop shaft off tonight, some of the bolts seem rounded.... But then I realised one has been almost cut in half by the spiny roundy bit - I assume due to the wear on it!

I left it on for the moment.

**** me sideways with a massive rubber dildo!

Changed - It's like an entirely new car. No thwacks and screeches and bumps and farts.

well?

did you do it?
did yu pay someone to do it?
did yu change the UJ's or the propshaft?

:nopics:

now check the other one

and dont forget to grease them both very well.

Achhhht!

10 pm last night I lay under the car in the rain and started to remove the prop shaft - it was clear that the amoubnt of damage that had been done was 'mangling' the boilts and nuts were being severed.

So I phones a mate with a car ramp who said he could do it tonight.

Anyway, I went to the shop this morning, who swore blind yesterday that they had the UJs as stock items. When I arrived they only had the £15 extra durable jobs (2 year warranty) - anyway I took two of them and some new anti-roll bar bushes.

We fitted them tonight - to be honest I couldn't have managed on my own - I don't have a workshop and this needed a whole lot of battering thumping and smacking around with the help of a big vice. If I had given it an entire Saturday afternoon with lots of patience and plasters for my knuckles I may have done it.

Good news! Well done.
