Ghetto Garage Spot Of Sun.
Today's only task was to drop the prop shaft given my Ghetto garage has a leaking roof! Have a plan to order sun next week from John Lewis as they always deliver?
First a bit of spray to mark the starting position. In fact later found a few helpful scratch marks suggesting someone has been here before?

Yup someone has been before 3 Nyloc and one stainless??

All the bolts out but no movement?
Handbrake off, in neutral, 4WD off but no rotation?
Brake hubs off then.

Seen worse but one seized.

Other side better but not nice.


Moment I removed the hub the prop dropped off.

Engine end not clean. Guess I will be looking for a seal kit if they do one?

4WD shifter works and assisted in removing the bolts.

then dropped the middle bearing and shield.

Half a corn field in here.

Thought easier to drop the exhaust to free up the shaft and get another job done.

My first failure despite care and easy out fluid one sheared thread.

Thought the middle clamp might go the same way but bit of heat and out it came.

Also rescued the radiator bump stops.

So two more parts out.

Not pretty?

Other end clean (ish).
Next has to be the front suspension to free up the drive shafts.
Drop the steering.
Drop the engine and trans.
Remove the screen and bumpers.
Drop the rear suspension.
Weld and then paint prep?
F1 time. Arrivabene vincere o crostini!
