 :eek:  Interesting to see the suspension at work.  Much easier to diagnose these days with mini cameras!

You did see the yolk pop out of the diff? needs new circlips.

That's a horror agree with the need for the C-clips to be replaced on the yokes
Have a look at this video and it fixes that flex up totally.
Alan Dean has bought it to fit to his 69 and the quality of the workmanship is first class.

Surely the trailng arm bushes etc are RS. With that amount of  movement even a new circlip may end up inside the diff which bates the question - where is the old circlip. The diff and spring are fixed, and the LH wheel is moving so much its a wonder the spring and hanger don't hit the wheel. Amazing stuff, but a great use of digital cameras.
