 Re: Yellow Dyane
Thanks Fer and Erik  . P1030524 by Robndaisy, on Flickr I couldn't get the hubnut off on the bench so had to make something up quickly. Not pretty but it worked. P1030527 by Robndaisy, on Flickr Oh dear! P1030526 by Robndaisy, on Flickr Uum! a lot of hammering has gone on here, to little effect I think  . P1030525 by Robndaisy, on Flickr The radius arm looks like an elephant's trunk  . P1030528 by Robndaisy, on Flickr The driveshaft looks ok but I'm actually going to fit two new ones. the kingpin I could push out with my hand it was that loose, time to do the weld&shrink trick 'cos replacement arms in good condition are a bit like rocking horse sh%t around here  .
