Got a strap wrench or a pair of stilsons to hold on to the shaft?

i think the shafts disconnected from the assembly so i dont think thatl do any good m8, the full inner joint is rotating, thinkin i might need to cut into thoe put to try and counterhold it somehow.

popping to halfords just shortly for the spline set tho, see what else they might have
weirdos on here i tell you ;)

Stick the gear box in reverse should stop it from rotating.
I often wonder why people never expect sarcastic comments from me - they're the only reason I speak...

found out the clip was still attached but the bearings had came off the roller.


Managed to chap em back on with a mash :)



axle reinstalled along with circlip, just need to grease up, reassemmble n put back on, Happy Days :)


had to use a puller to remove the assembly from the splined shaft, other than that, very simple job id say
