then missus wants me to duck down the shops for some groceries, jump in, difflock on and off i drive to the shops only to find i still have a cricket chirping even with no front propshaft. it all comes crashing down in my head. gets out of car, wlaks around to left front tyre and looks in tread to find a large piece of gravel trapped in the tread. drives back home and puts shaft back in for another day.

i blame all you guys on here for making me paranoid about the front shaft exploding

:P

Brilliant !

Excellent rehearsal, you'll need a bit of TLC on the prop soon, why not take the opportunity to do some preventative maintenance.

I tried and failed to remove mine in the driveway,,
took it to a truck driveline specialist and he commented on how tight the bolts were to remove with an 18" breaker bar,,

I had to bridge a drain to get under mine to remove it.May be a fat barsteward but I dont need a big breaker bar
