Time to Start Doing a Few Jobs

Seems a bit weird driving around with the prop off. I kind of got used to all the "sounds" that my transmission was making, and now its silent! Doesnt feel that different on the road though. However, i was wondering about putting the prop back on yet as one of the noises it was making prior to removing the prop was a strange kind of low frequency "clicking/rubbing" noise which seemed to be coming from the front/right area of the car. Sorry about the description but i cant think of a better way to describe it. This only ever used to happen when moving off after being parked for a while and then i would never hear it again.

Any ideas peeps?

New carriers ready to go on, that is if i ever get the old ones off. So far only succeeded in getting the prop sections off. I cut the rubber off so my puller would go over to grip the bearings but my vice broke yesterday so will try again today.

However, given the possible issues that can emerge with the IRD, i was wondering about the merits of putting the prop back on. I think i will install (hopefully) the new carriers, put it back on and see what "noises" eminate from within! That will also give me a clue as to what further jobs remain (on the transmission) to do from that point. Hopefully there wont be any. Anyone got any tips for removing those bearings if you cant use a puller!

Hope all are well.

Shameless bump! Anyone?

Also got around to replacing the passenger front door lock and gave the window mechanism a good clean and spray with some silicon. Hopefully should avoid any probs in the future with that one!
