Found: Wanted after Normandy 2014: front axle for a Ford F30 LAAT

[Andy Mitchell]

Unfortunately I had something of a catastrophic failure on my F30 in Normandy, the front right hand wheel station sheared off just after the flange and threw me into a ditch. Thanks to everybody who helped in the recovery.

Once she's back home I will be able to work out what the failure was, but things point to CV joint disintegrating.

The new problem is that she is supposed to be going on the XXX Corps run in September ! Maurice Donkers reckons he has the parts to replace, but if anyone in the UK has a front axle for a Ford F30 Laat ( small size ball joints same as 15 cwt) please let me know, it would be a real shame to not take her to Arnhem !

And Hanno, it was a pleasure to meet you at last !

Thanks again everyone,

Andy
