you should pop down dave

to join the orgy?

of course

your just jelous

not sure if am gonna make it again now, only got tomorrow to sort it.

Getting a knocking about the same speed as a full turn of the road wheel. It sounds like its from the n\s CV joint, but ive had a brand new complete driveshaft that side and 2 new wishbones. Heard it might be a few things. the o/s cv joint or driveshaft, top suspension mount, anti roll bar bush etc etc

update, iam defo not able to come tomorrow now and iam really disappointed.

Just gone on a 10 mile test drive and the new shaft has popped out the gearbox again and lost all the gearbox oil so iam guessing a fucked box, cause everything else has either been checked or replaced

_________________

Bugger...sorry to hear that dude. if the shaft keeps coming out and its likely the diff is dead. shame its happened now..but at least its not done it on your way to fitp leaving you stuck on the motorway

chin up dude.

Jam.

try these guys..its worth uprating/rebuilding if your intent on keeping it. you may do better to get another 2nd hand unit..but the viscous plates do wear..and if its been abused and most have it wont be long before it pulls much the same stunt. fortunately the BC box is pretty easy to rebuild. if you can..find a MK3/4 escort haynes manual..its got the guide to rebuilding in there you only need to worry if your replacing bearings i believe as you have to shim them for the correct preload. depends how much experience you have of gearboxes to be honest. speak to them or a few places first..then make your mind up from there.

Jam.

P.S anyone going to FITP...make sure you show tango the man ho some love with your camera...he loooooves having his picture taken lol
