So following Broxhead I had to find out what happened to the 4WD. The main culprit is likely to be the CV joint so I stripped down the hub.

We are off to the TV4x4 Children in Need event at Broxhead Common next weekend (is anyone else coming?).

Phil has sent in some more of his tips, this time regarding the drum brakes...

For those of you following this site you may have seen that my Jimny failed its MOT last week (SEE HERE).

So it was off down to the MOT station yesterday for the annual MOT test. I had spent a few hours over the weekend tidying things up and cleaning the car down. Most importantly I cleaned out the brakes as the rears were all siezed up and I had no handbrake again.
