Realised the crank end float was way too tight, so been slowly linishing the thrust bearings to get right.

Spend as much time as it takes to fit it square, Its not easy in situ and you only get one chance. Try using a nylon washer rather than a copper to seal it once you've fitted it. If you decide to go that route try this sitehttps://www.accu.co....g&orderway=asc. You need to view it on a pc, the 5th column on the right enables the washer material and colur options.

Started my panic rush to get back to the MOT station before my 10 day window expires and I have to pay again. Exhaust off, manifold hacked to bits and off, front discs off and one hub in bits.
Got the other side to strip tonight, then drain the oil, pot joints out for new seals while I wait for the new outer CV rubbers to arrive.
New exhaust is due Thursday, MOT Friday, so going to sack work off and get that done. Hopefully the CV rubbers arrive today or tomorrow and I can get them on and ready to go back together before then or Thursday might be a bit of a mad rush!
