With the beast on axle stands, a trolley jack and concrete blocks, propshaft removal began. Simon, (bloke next door, Who's Who has been updated!) and I wedged ourselves under and started to scrape knuckles. After about an hour and a couple of cuppas, off came the propshaft.
And there is nothing wrong with it. Cock! A quick trip round to Guru Ed confirmed this. So what else could it be? Bugger! Look at the drawings ... there are gears in the diff, there are teethy things on half shafts, and oodles of different bearings. It must be one of them then?
And as a new axle costs over 1000 big ones [almost as much as i paid for the damned thing!], the clunk is now referred to as a "feature"!
