Hi Derek, good to see the oil seal re-do went well. A suggestion: When tightening "your nuts", it would be really useful if you could mention the torque value for as many of them as possible. Keep 'em videos coming!
great great job sirn watching u and yr videos out here in jamaica i had 2 disco 2 4'6 engine great truck thanks sir job wel done didnt missed a minute of yr video koooool
Good job done Derek, another great video, like the tracking rod end replacements. Very handy. Well it's taken a year but finally got the underneath of my D2 (daisy) lanoguard only took a few ours and was very liberal with the spray and used just under 2 liters. So let's see how it goes over the next few weeks underneath.
@@sleepycatpictures1176 cleaned the underneath with some traffic film remover removed that with warm water through the jet wash, let it dry off for a day and the bad sections got a quick wire brush, then covered in the lanoguard. Had the long thin hose that came with it for the chassis rails got right inside it and gave a good coating. Had the D2 up on some wooden ramps to easy get to parts
Ello Derek. Went remarkably well/ quick as you say, you'd learnt from last time. I'd worry tho about the damage to the seal that the scaffold poll done. I think, although I'm definitely no mechanic that the track rod end was rather knackered, looked a bit too floppy & easy to move about. Also I'd have thought the the cable tie joint, could dig in to/split the rubber also? But as I say, I'm no mechanical marvel, so just an opinion. Fingers crossed it all holds out for you this time. Stay lucky. Stay safe. Stay healthy. Alan L200
Yes, annoying that scaffold pole. It was the only thing I could find of the right diameter. I'll have to get some proper drifts. The ball joint cover was an experiment. We'll see how it lasts!
Noticed you are using a straight extension for your sockets. Have a look at wobbler extensions for sockets, you will find them better at getting the socket flush with the head of the nut/bolt. Back to talking with one of the Scottish Glens within the glass medium.
@@grenebulax Good Luck! Don't oil the new seal! You don't have to undo the big driveshaft nut, just pull the half shaft out. Replace carefully. I still have the drivers side to redo. It's been okay so far.
@@sleepycatpictures1176 I'm replacing both half shafts, hubs, and seals. Was flooded in salt water. On the front end. Hubs and shafts are fused together so may as well replace it all.
