front axle problems

<< < (2/3) > >>

Range Rover Blues:
That'l need a new stub axle, the CV joint outer end has worn away on the inside of the stub axle so I'd expect it to be as badly damaged plus the CV joint bearing will almost certainly be goosed.

And you obvioulsy need the CV joint too.

cheers for the replies.

took the caliper off, and the hole disc/wheel hub fell off. left with a shaft with melted bearing remains and the big nut stuck on  :lol: hopefully my mate is coming over tonight with a spare stub axle, so we should be able to make something good out of the 2. my swivels are really good. so just need to find a new half shaft.

been meaning to do the bearing for weeks, bought them months ago, DOh that'll teach me to stop being lazy with the maintenance.

oooops  :shocked:

Range Rover Blues:
The swivle won't be effected by this, just the stub axle.

When you remove it though be careful and check that none of the female thread comes out of the swivel with the stub axle bolts, if it does the swivel is scrap unless you get it helicoiled.
