Hi Folks, I just thought I would update ref my F30 prolem in Normandy.
Now that W & P is over I have had the chance to strip the axle down and it turns out that the axle casing was CRACKED between the ball joint and the diff.
You can see on close inspection that it had been cracked for for probably years judging by the rust marks.
Totally invisible under the paint etc.
One of those things I suppose with a 70 + year old truck and no real history.
It will be back in action soon and in Holland in September for XXX Corps.
