Yep, UJ's arrived..but I just don't have time for a few days to work on it..busy at Agricultural shows quite locally, work comes first, although I was hoping to have the truck on my stand as an,.....advert. As soon as I've tried this UJ, I'll nip up the lane in it to see which one will be next...I'm...

Awaiting the UJ tomorrow hopefully, then, time permitting, I'll try it out.
Just a bit busy work/shows this next couple of weeks...

With this UJ off and transfer box obviously, no apparant movement from the gearbox..do you think my maximum...

Thanks Darrell,
I'll attempt to relate to those dimensions.
I think that I have, well sure, the Rascal gearbox..here's the UJ from transfer box to it..any motor factor you reckon??

Hi Tramp, yes, that's the Truck! I am in touch a little via e mail with one of the guys that built it, obviously memories are fainter than when first done.. but I have asked the question.. I've now got the UJ off the back of the gearbox to transfer box... a little play detected. Just attempting a pi...

I'll do that too!
thanks,
