Had the Big Gal out for a good couple of hundred mile run today and am pleased to say she is running top notch. Todd's flash with PC5 and AT has her singing like a Diva and I've got nothing but good things to say about it.
But, a number of you may have heard that a while back now I was rear ended (no, not in prison :lol: ) and, altho damage was fairly minor, the rear wheel was hit hard enough to start a seam split in the tire. Tire replaced, all is well. It also caused some oil seepage at the CV(?) joint boot and has me wanting to look into that.
So, today I was stopped in an incline down to the ferry with engine off and in gear. As the line started to move I pulled in the clutch and coasted, in gear, down the ramp abit. I could hear and feel a clunka clunka clunka. I am suspecting the CV unless someone here tells me it's normal. I also remember reading someone (Pete Roper maybe?) saying removing the CARC is an easy half hour job. Is there any proceedure posting with pics on this. And once, with wheel off and disconnected , is it on a spline shaft that you can just pull back and slide it off?
Any and all input will be greatly appreciated here.
A slightly worried Toad. :?:
