Time for rear brakes!
After a lot of swearing and head scratching, I came up with this contraption for pulling the halfshafts out:
I could then get rid of the old backing plate and put the halfshaft back in:
Then I realized what Gordon (gmgiltd) was on about when talking about when he said he had to make up a 3mm spacer. The bearing retainer plate can't be secured without distorting it without the backing plate. The backing plate is 2.5mm thick but with a paper gasket. I found the front plate from an old amplifier and started cutting:
While I was at it, I found that it was time to open the rear end and change the old. Oh boy, that smelled! The oil was dark brown and thick, so a change was about time:
More to come, now I have a family to feed...
