Sandy Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 Its a long story which I'm happy to explain to anyone thats interested.... I've just replaced both of my Ital half shafts and it transpires that there is nothing wrong with the old ones So, I have the old pair available 4yrs old, 5k miles use (Just 1, yes 1 track day!!) They are of the 'bearing tack welded' type although the weld has broken on one £120 +carriage for the pair incl bearings and hub nuts Attend Hathern and Lichfield meets and am at Croft on Sunday Its not the days in your life ..........But the LIFE in your days!! ;0)) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandy Posted August 3, 2005 Author Share Posted August 3, 2005 Ok then, I had an oil leak from one hub, so the oil seals were replaced. Oil leak returned so I was assured the shaft must be bent. Had both sides replaced with the newer shafts. Asked the garage to remember to overfill the diff. when all the work had been carried it transpired there was no breather on the diff *mad* Oh, I also brought a Haynes manual when the leak returned and later my mechanic admitted he had fitted 2 plates the wrong way round 1st time round so either that or the fact there was no breather was the likely cause of the leak. Its all sorted now, with a breather but I wont be taking it back there He's an ok mechanic on my tin top but rubbish on the 7 cos he doesnt want to think or do anything that isnt routine (to him anyway) Anyway, dont take the p*ss or i'll chuck my teddy, no CAR at you - The engine had to come out last year, and then my fan switch broke this year which threw the HG so I've had my fair share of mis-fortune Sandy Looking for a mechanic that knows what he is doing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
