Took my cradle out to do the diff bushes, all done and back in now but when I jacked the car up the cradle was hanging 10mm from the body on the drivers side, I think someone forgot to do one side up properly or didn"t use thread lock.

No harm done, lucky I am not getting any Dukes of Hazzard airtime in the big girl!

Might be something for people to check if others are taking the cradle out to do bushes though.

Nah just the usual clunky diff noises when driving, all good now though.

Posted that incase peeps have others working on their cars, doesn"t take long for a quick look - mistakes happen sometimes.

That's a pretty big mistake.  When I first stated working as a mechanic on customers vehicles I was so paranoid I use to check all bolts at least 3 times.

twice.

 The second one is done mentally and the third is a physical check if necessary for me. Gotta have a good memory lol. 

 

I take the time to mentally check as it is much quicker than checking with tools. 

 

I didn't do anything with my car today. It has been 46 degrees for 3 days straight. I was outside working on some other stuff and noticed the car needed a wash. 

 

I've been planning a tuning day when it cools down. Tomorrow is supposed to be 32 so I guess a clean and a bunch of tuning is in order. 

 

I should probably have another try at finding that rear clunk.
