  6. Today was the first time I've worked on the van in god knows how long , so I started to strip the rear drivers hub off again as its grinding when the wheel etc moves but have found a problem after getting the bearings out I found that inside if the hub is damaged ! A bit has broken lose and I don't think it's useable any more as its were the bearing case sits any way see what you guys think ow and is there meant to be a cir clip of some sorts holding the bearings in as I had to pull the case apart that held the rolls in it

  7. I could be wrong but I think that's just the bearing race.
     
  8. I'm not sore if it is then it could be pressed out , I've got the manual but carnt see a lot on it

  10. Well sorted the hub problem out today thanks to many late bay members ;)
    While doing that I Was finishing some bits of welding off under the van , the rear sill will be like this for a while untill I replace it all but for now it's more than solid , then some other bits welded to .
    Had to seem seal and prime the welds as there are a few small holes but If I keep grinding it all back and weld it again it will just blow more holes so it will have to do [​IMG][​IMG]
