- My Spit 1500 failed it's MOT last week. One of the problems was "excessive movement in offside rear trunion bushes". I stripped out the half-shaft last night and found that the trunion bolt is seized

- Oh *@&% ! Just what I was trying to avoid. Oh well, maybe I'll get away with it. That's OK. I'd rather know when I've been a prat. The best lessons are the ones you learn by making your own mistakes
