I know, an update every day. What’s going on?

Another afternoon in the garage today and I managed to get the rear end broken down almost all the way – I was stopped by, yet again, the large pivot bolts.

According to Haynes I have to send the whole lot off – carrier, hub and all – to be rebuilt by a specialist because you need special tools to get it all apart. I think that means the ABS reluctor ring wasn’t really supposed to fall off in my hand on one side, then…
