Hi I’ve watched this my concern was that the bearing race didn’t sit exactly square to the tube as even a slight misalignment would be a large deflection at the hub position.

Hi Thank you. the seal is now an oval stretched at the bottom. I’m halfway through will share my alternative idea if it works.

The drive shaft disc is sitting low almost touching the bottom. I removed the drive shaft and there's wear and deformation on the bottom of the seal. I've seen the LRT 54-006 tool but the cheapest one I saw was £600. I'm working on an alternative to this tool hence the questions.

So just to be clear the top ball joint always allows vertical movement? This has had me scratching my head for a year now I couldn’t work out how two castings could be fixed at two points but there was only adjustment on one. I don’t have the option to leave alone as the hub was previously...

Hi sorry to resurrect this thread. I’m trying to work out my height adjustment on my P38. I noticed you mentioned the upper joint has vertical play? Is this correct? I could never understand why height adjustment settings were only on the lower joint.

The front rubber strip can slide out of the channel I found I could glue it back in. Also You need to make sure the whole assembly is aligned as I found when open if I shut the door with force it knocked the glass out the front runner rubber.

Hi would appreciate some advise. I've got a 1995 P38 V8 with a 4.6 petrol engine. It been running a little rough so put the nanocom unit on to take a look. Reading the faults I get. P0138 ‐ Oxygen sensor circuit high voltage, downstream sensor bank A I used the live data to view what was...

Hi been having a real problem getting this software to communicate using USB emulator. Had it once or twice but now nothing. Some say adjust the delays. Which ones by how much? Any advice would be really helpful.

Hi Colin I know its been a while but wondered how you got on with the engine out? did you just take out the lump or include the Gearbox?

If I can help did mine a few weeks ago. on stands on my drive was tough but managed it. Tricks I found. have a couple of jacks so you can manipulate the axle a little. Save an axle stand for the small end of radius arm it'll help when handling under the car. To get the end to locate into the...

Tried to remix the drivers door card. Bought the car a week ago found someone had tried to fix card with Silicon sealant and a couple of holes drilled in foam under side pocket. Can I get new card lugs for card? Bought the little black serrated slip on pins. But half the lugs are...
