On sunday at Kirton HL suffered a breakage; there was a bit of a nasty noise, and I lost drive to the F/N/S wheel ( a kind of 'spang' -definitely not a clicky sound or a crunch or a bang) after removing the front prop I drove home in difflock with no apparent problems other than a bit of a loss of steering on left-handers and a bit of a rumble under acceleration. Votes please as to what damage I have done, opinions vary from halfshaft to CV joint to diff, I haven't looked yet, as I dont want to get her stripped down past the point of no return in case I need to get her to a garage. Your input please?

is there oil leaking from the diff casing?

if not probably bust a shaft at the diff end,if it wa sa cv joint i would expected it to have locked up by now whilst turning a corner

There's no leakage at all from the diff casing, or anywhere for that matter, and before trying to drive her I did check her lock to lock and there was no clicky noises.

start with the CV as you have to take them out anyway to get at the diff.

Sounds like a cv to me.

Specialy if you loose some left steering, Had three cv's go and this was one of the syptoms.

Well, she's been to 'out patients' today, and I've bust the diff :( ah well, had to happen some time I suppose. Surgery is scheduled for next week.
