Euan, Vicki and I bought the ute new in 94 and retired it to paddock work when it had more than 300,000 K's. When a ball fell out of the cv joint while carting water in the drout I gave it to the boys to drive to the bus as a two wheel drive. The rest of the balls fell out while cornering and the shaft droped out, when Sam straightened up the shaft jamed the wheel and the ball joint snaped so my fix was to cut the shaft and weld the joint in place.
hopefully it will last for a fiew months at least.
