A bit from BigJimny and a bit from JimnyBits -
Front rebuild kit!
Front wheel bearings and seals, new kingpins and bearings, axle seals, ball seals, waterproof grease, track rod ends (already got some 'in stock' too), and new nuts for them too...
I had terrible death wobble on day two of your Lake District weekend trip as the balljoint on the track rod end connected to the pitman steering arm is shot, and after swapping the rear wheel bearings recently, and given the Jim has just turned 50k and had 16 greenlaning trips, so I thought it wise preventative maintenance to change the front wheel bearings, so I figured I might as well get everything in stock ready for a complete rebuild of the front axle and steering... might not use everything during the rebuild but at least I've got it if I needed it, and if not the unused components can sit on the spares shelf until they ARE needed...
It's supposed to rain tomorrow though? Might have to have a lie-in for a change...
