looks like fun mate, should be ready for norway though, you need me to get any parts from D44

Hello mate
All done...new stub axle though :cry: :-({|=
The bearing nut was welded to the stub axle...never mind, a big hammer & cold chisel sorted that :) ...& the oxy acetylene sorted the rest :lol: :shock:
Did the other side too...just to be safe.
Whipped the diff pan off to check ARB ok & replaced the breather pipes.
All in all a good days work & total bill of about £140...not bad for a seized bearing :? :roll:
Below are the pictures of the hub & what remains of the bearing!...I must stop reversing it into the sea to launch the boat :roll:

PMSL...what are you launching the QE2 :lol: :twisted:
I'm pretty sure no salt water got in...the grease wasn't emulisified nor was the EP90 in the diff. The drive flanges were sealed well with sealant ...just one of those things I guess :roll:
