I do hope so! It'd be rather annoying to do all that and find something else was wrong and ruining the drive - but there's not much left to overhaul after this!Jordi wrote:Busy again then mate. Sounds the drive train will be silky smooth once it's all done.
Teeny bit. It'll be a couple of months before I'm firing on all cylinders again. :(Ladaman wrote:Nice to hear you are back on with it, so your health must have improved so thats a bonus too.
That's the nature of having a misfiring brainstem, though.
We'll see - I have a laser level, hopefully that'll be real easy - just plant it on the ground and measure the distance from the bottom of the axle casing to the line, top of the axle casing to the line, and do so again along the length of the axle - if it's true, it should come up with the same numbers all the way along. Very similar idea to yours, only including lasers.Ladaman wrote:I've just had to change a half shaft, as I found the bearing was shot. I only noticed this when changing the shoes, the cage had disappeared, so you might be lucky.
To check the trueness of the rear axle casing, can you clamp on a straight edge on the end faces and measure the distace/length. Rotate 90 degrees and measure again? Possibly easier and simpler to identify than with a "gadget".
Take it easy.
And lasers, much like light sabres and bacon, make everything better. Everything.
I have one for each axle, but they're staying in a cupboard for now. I have enough to do!turbo-tom wrote:Sounds like a plan are you running back and front arb's?
