It's not just a man thing Dot........ so I've heard!!! :lol: :lol: :oops:
May I politely suggest you should do your front wheels bearings as well since you would have no idea if or when they've ever been done.
Was one of the first jobs I did once I got mine back home. Lucky I did too....... replaced one.

I do it by hnnd. It's not unpleasant while you're doing it, but it's messy to clean up. :oops:

Sorry Dot...... it's going to cost you a lot of money.
I was suggesting you do it yourselves if that's at all possible.
Shockers?......... I must check my front ones as well. A couple of very undulating surfaces had the front wheels almost off the deck. Might be just too much pressure in my air bags.

In that case forget it, shockies will be pricey enough. and neither of us know how to do such things.

Take photos and send them to the motor trade association that looks after these situations.

dawg (who wonders why that posting was 09:00, when it's 08:00 here - if anything, should be the other way round :?: )

PS just found "Board index (sez that) All times are UTC + 10 hours [ DST ]", which explains it, but doesn't help much.

Mmmm.. know the feeling Bruce! :?

Dot still insists the remedy is definitely not recommended - especially when there is no exhaust fan in her dunny!!! :roll:

But sometimes you just have to do what you have to do... but I guess choosing the location can be beneficial - if you have time. :lol: :lol:

We had a nice drop of rain over night and it was lovely laying in bed listening to the pitter patter on the bus roof, even the pussy liked it. Had a nice tea cooked by Chuck, twas a mild beef curry and we shared a bottle of Muscato. G is off to the GP to be told off tomorrow, he had blood tests last week and his cholesterol is up again due to his eating too much crap like pastries and stuff :twisted: so all in all a good day.
