You must work faster than me 07Commander, 4 hours is pretty good going for that job
It took me just over 6 hours, on my own, without a hoist. It did take me a while to get the old bushes out and the new ones in with my limited tools.
Overall it wasn't a hard job, just time consuming. I found the youtube video on it was very helpful.
I put it all back together, drove it out of the shed and did a u-turn, still clicking and vibrating through the steering wheel. Bugger. decided to take it for a drive, found a quite culdersac to turn around, noise and vibration gone.
I did change the front diff oil, I wonder if the old oil was causing the diff to lock up a bit which was causing the noise and vibrations. It's all good now and drives nicely again.
For the record the tailshaft CV (CV861) is the rear CV from a V8 or Turbo 6 Falcon tailshaft BA or BF model. They have two tailshaft types, one with a centre Uni Joint and one with a centre CV. The one the Jeep uses is from the Ford tailshaft with the centre CV
