they will ,but at least you can still drive the vehicle
no ,i much prefer driving a disco much more than anything elseI'm gonna leave it 'in bits' over the weekend and 'enjoy' driving the wife's passat estate - which feels like a racing car as you're low down and in a petrol compared to the old disco.
I'm thinking I might just have a potter around underneath and see what else needs looking at or replacing. As you do like!
Its got to the point now that I'm not that keen on driving regular cars! Is that weird or what?!?
Illness has got the better of me so nothing has been done with getting it all back together barring a trip over to Bearmach's to get the nuts and bolts and discovering that an old school mate works there - no bloody discount mind but I'll work on him!
Any tips on removing the propshaft mounting flange from the gearbox gratefully received as my illness is such that it affects my guts so I can't welly stuff like I used to.
Is there any magic combination for 'locking' the manual gearbox so the swine doesn't spin when somebody is tugging on the flange nut so to speak??
thanks mad hat, I will have a roll around on the driveway later.
