HI Guys,
Just got back from devon. had a great time and weather was great only things is just before we we're about to leave i noticed a clicking noise and then started grinding metal to metal. it soon stop making the noise and at a steady 60mph and 4 and half hours drive,it got us home.
When i got back to put the caravan back on the drive we noticed oil was all flicked up the front of the caravan. There was lots of oil in the rear passanger wheel arch and in the wheel.
I dont think its break fliud as it doesn't smell like it and the fluid tank is full. (sorry cant spell) lol. the shocker is clean and there is too much to have come out of that. Cant see where its coming from but its really thick black oil. Any suggestions.
thanks in advance
simon

if you need to pull the half shaft out you could use the bearinator

in the manual of lies it says turn the hub around and hit wth a big hamer, haha never works,, with that bearinator it will be an easy job, you could always ask weave to pop round once you have striped it down he would be moor that happy just to use that thing again
