Mabel's knock

Recommended Posts

"However she duly ran very well though did develop a knock at the nearside rear wheel which we suspect is a drive shaft UJ."

Wendy,

Please remind Darren about what might have started as a similar problem on my Vitesse during the 2018 Border Raiders.  I later had to replace wheel bearings and halfshaft because I kept going to the finish (and part way home)!  Canleys have good advice, see  https://www.canleyclassics.com/?archive=rear-end-noises

Thank you Pete,  I am not going to be driving her until this knock is identified and sorted, as you say driving her will only cause more issues so she’s staying put fir the time being

thank you so much for your advice it’s much appreciated
