Another six bite the dust.

Just spend the whole weekend 7am till 10 pm stripping out a few of the breaker Scorpios I had sitting around.
4 gone to the Scorpio scrapyard in the sky and another two joining them first thing tomorrow morning.
New scrapyard opened nearby offering a higher price so i used them, as I went in with the first one one of the guys came over saying he had never seen a Scorpio for years and years...
After the third time I went in blowing the horn at him and pointing back to the trailer I think he was getting a bit fed up with it 
So another 6 are gone forever but plenty parts remain 
One thing worthy of a mention I did discover on a 2 litre M reg estate was a pair of Munro shocks on the rear!!
Will post up my findings on the estate shocks thread in the How to do things section...

That poor old van gets a hard life

Yes Gozz,
For the 108mm Joints................
No need to take the whole diff, whip the rear cover off and knock the circlips off then they slide out with a little tap
Cheers M8

No Lee
Those ones are smaller
It's only "Bug Eye" Scorpio 24V, 12V and Diesels that have the big flanges............
I have 3 LSD diff's as "choices" for the Puma, but only have one set of flanges here ATM
