THANK YOU WOODIE - polish your superstar HALO
After completing her two and a half thousand mile marathon, my little camper had some problems.
1. The dreaded left front hab had eaten the split pin and come partially undone - it would appear to be an old problem as the Disk Carrier has no splines - it is worn smooth. There should have been some swarf - so a previous owner had bodged it together. Woodie kindly dug out the parts I needed Disk Carrier and the Stub Axle.
No sooner on the road again and another CLUNK became apparent - wear in the propshaft UJ nearly an eighth of a turn play. Desperate phone conversations with Woodie - I have to be in dinburgh this weekend to spend my 70th birthday with my sons (one is flying in from the States). Woodie (no spring chicken himself) came to the rescue - yesterday Bank Holiday Monday) in that heatwave he fought through nettles and other stingers to get a propshaft off a pickup.
Said propshaft is now in transit between the Isle of Wight and Cornwall.
The man is a star. Without his knowledge of HiJets I think many more would be off the road.

Crumbs!!! I don't know how I am going to polish my Halo now. It slipped round my ankles a few years ago and getting more and more decrepit by the day I can't bend enough with the Arthritis in my Spine, enough to reach my boots zips - never mind my long tarnished Copper Halo.
Thank you very much for your kindness Jon and Scotia. How much did we agree on for your bribes??

Keep polishing - and Parcelforce can polish theirs too - the propshaft arrived here in West Cornwall at about 14.30 and it was on a 48 hour delivery

Good grief!! That is absolutely amazing. I am so glad I found Mike at POST ROOM PLUS. He must get priority service from Parcel Force and UPS. The Stub Axle and Drive Flange arrived the next day too.
Perhaps I had better polish up my Halo after all Jon.

POST ROOM PLUS PLUS I would think you have certainly found a very good service.
