Yay! Feels like i've been banned for 2 weeks without it haha!

After it's breakdown, picked the new hub up from ANC 20 miles away on Saturday and got to work fitting it!

New Hub, Bearings, Steering Knuckle, Ball Joints, Track Rod Ends, CV, Red Dot Discs and Mintex Pads were fitted today. Feels great to have it back though, off out to clean it now as it's under 2 weeks worth of dirt.

Not much to say, i'm just chuffed to have it fixed

TBH, it's the first time it's fucked up badly and caused loads of damage. No pics of it as it's still filthy.

Shall do Rob
