    P38 Vibration..U/V joint..I've given up!!

    I'm surprised but not surprised you had trouble removing the prop shaft nuts - they can be a right bugger at times Over the years I have managed to pick up a pair of thin wall ring spanners that are just perfect for the job The secret is to hold the bolt end still and try and crack the nut end...
