Title: What next? Post by: Paul Bahnstormerz on July 23, 2016, 12:13:35 pm 6 months of building, finally got to drive the car, set of for the MOT, and the brakes got worse. Then I noticed the rear wheel was half off! The nut has sheared off the axle flush with the hub carrier, T3 drums and I'm now awaiting transporter
Can an axle be changed with the transmission in place? (http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160723/10ed588067e922a2d0becc89f6d4e6b3.jpg) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Title: Re: What next?

Post by: Garrick Clark on July 24, 2016, 15:25:40 pm I had that happen to me doing 75 , the threaded portion of the axle snapped, wheel came off and rolled into a field. I put brakes on , pedal went to the floor due to it only having a single system master cylinder. bug stopped in middle of a roundabout. Scary.
I changed the shaft with the box still in. Title: Re: What next? Post by: Paul Bahnstormerz on July 24, 2016, 16:37:54 pm The side cover going to prevent me from pulling the axle from the car in situ
Still pleased with the way it looked (http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160724/35bac01e79f430ab1ae2109f98706e09.jpg) (http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160724/873c9014ba702d4379926647f73f6f14.jpg)(http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160724/dadddf1ebc073c927684d799c4d26245.jpg)(http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160724/2a826b0eb2b20889f513f303c90c836d.jpg) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Title: Re: What next?
