300Tdi front axle check. Vibration and broken CV reported. Real time repair Pt 2

[@eliotheasman5378]

Hi Mike very well done as always I am easing myself back to work on Monday many thanks Eliot keep up the good work more videos please

[@BritannicaRestorations]

Up and at 'em Eliot! Hope you are feeling better

[@nickboylen6873]

Grease is perfect for gaskets. Sealant is a damned nuisance, and dry gaskets don’t work too well. CVs are one of Britpart’s best components, at very good prices.

This is a job I’ve been putting off! You’ve kind of given me the motivation to crack on👍👍

Hi Mike 🤔 thanks again 👍 great video update as always 🤔 so just winter tyres then ready for winter 🤔👍👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

Getting a Bearmach exhaust for this truck - made in UK so we will see what the quality is like

[@MrAlexander121]

Your doing a great job keep the videos coming

[@desertdog1664]

Hi mike, great vid by the way. The question i have is brake pipes, mine snapped when i did the bearings as i moved the calipers out of the way, so i bought an automec kit, should i have used steel or is the copper/nickel pipes OK? thanks

[@BritannicaRestorations]

Copper Nickel all the time for me!

Hi Mike, unrelated question if I may... how to go on about stamping the chassis number on a new Marsland (Genuine Land Rover) galvanised chassis we got changed on our 300Tdi three years ago? I did the job back in the UK and had no problems back there, now in France and in the process of importing our Landy, we have all proof & photos of chassis swap with number plate and documents from DVLA and UK police car is not stolen and belongs to us, also Marsland receipt with date and my name on it. Wrote to Land Rover France and no answer. Cheers if you feel like answering, Richard.

Piece of angle iron and a set of letter stamps.

what is the thread on your funky shaft puller? I can never find a bolt to fit!

[@BritannicaRestorations]

7/16" BSW (British Standard Whitworth) - 14tpi. I use a 7/16 UNF just to get the first few threads

[@petej536]

@@BritannicaRestorations ohh time to crack out the bsw dies at work then!

[@harveysmith100]

Please don't Google the term "Funky shaft puller."

[@keithrimmer3]

Hi Mike could the missing wheel nut cause the vibration

[@BritannicaRestorations]

I thought about this, but the mass would be too close to the centreline of the axle so it would not have a drastic effect like a lead weight on the rim edge

[@GrumpsBarn]

...did you check the railko bush/ top bearing?

[@BritannicaRestorations]

Everything seemed tight and rust free - I did pull the pin as it was a bearing seemed fine

[@nickboylen6873]

Good suggestion - low swivel preloads can cause the “death wobble”.

[@GrumpsBarn]

...fair enough Mike, I just recalled that you were going to check them

[@greebo7857]

With those tyres, a worn tie rod end and shock bushes could easily cause a vibration.

[@BritannicaRestorations]

Yeap I agree

[@bigm383]

I hope your customer watches these videos and realises how much dough you've saved. The innards of the Landrovers you fix always look like the workings of a Swiss watch when you've finished with them.

[@BritannicaRestorations]

This is why I do them so they can see their vehicle worked on and they cannot say I didn't to it - covers my bottom, to be polite I cut a lot out of videos on here but I film just about everything! (just in case!)
