Wheel Wobble

<< < (3/3)

ChrisW:
UJ on the front prop gearbox end
 :(bigoops):  :(bigangry):  :(mad):

Matt_H:
ahh well at least it's only £20 ish for a new one.  The most frustrating bit is not knowing what the problem is.  How did you narrow it down in the end?

ChrisW:
Well.... just before it started wobbling there was a squeaking noise low speed related.
On Friday the wobble almost disappeared - but the noise came back. I noticed later in the day a clunk developing taking up the drive, had a quick fiddle with the props and felt a bit of slack in the front  :roll:

On the ramps this morning swapping over to a new one!  :D
Quick oil and filter change and fuel filter, grease all the nipples we could find.
Looked at the front swivel seal that was leaking and hmmm'd and arrr'd a bit and decided to have a full day on her one Saturday in the not too distant future  :wink:

Annoying how the problem can travel down the drive train, crawling round trying to isolate the problem you can hear against the other problems, that could be there too :?
