unfortunatly I didnt have that advice yesterday Madzuki and the mechanic had fixed it back to the way it was. I rang him last night and it was almost back togther. I will find out the total damage bill this morning.

Well after all that it wasn't the hub :oops:

It was the bearing in the drivers side axle had collapsed. aparently the seal that stops the water getting in was non exestint, and all the mud and water that I had bee going through over the past few weeks helped to collapse an already buggerd bearing. along with that add a stuffed CV Joint and a bill of $550.00 I am happy with the result, considering the diff had to be removed.

I got it fixed at Raymond Mechanical at Beenleigh, beeing that I have just moved to Queenslad from Tasmania and finding it hard to find a good mechanic I would recomend him any time.

now back to the tracks :armsup:

Just dont tell the wife :roll:
