Re: CV joint removal from wheel hub

You'll definitely need a hub puller. I even needed it to get the Brake disk off as mine was stuck fast. Make sure you have a meaty breaker bar, my new one lasted about 10 minutes.

Re: CV joint removal from wheel hub

Woo hoo job done. 6 new high tensile bolts for the hub puller tightened to the max while installed to the hub. A bucket load of WD40, 1 modified braker bar, 1 lump hammer for stress relief, 1 crowbar to hold the hub and 1 hernia using sheer force to crack that beauty. Now seven days behind my origin...

Re: Roll Call

I'm here.

Had mine about 6 weeks. Loving it, kids are loving it more, my 2 year old has to say good night to it most nights before she'll go to bed.

Unfortunately its currently on axle stands on my drive attempting a CV joint replacement. Not as easy a job as i expected.

Will have a go at removing the drive shaft this week and do the old soaking in diesel jobby. Failing ...

Re: Awning brackets, drilling the roof

Hi gilly99

Have you still got a copy of the drawings for your bracket? I've just aquired a omnister 5002 and want to fix it to my bongo. Yours looks like the sort of fixing i'd like to try on mine.

Cheers in advance
