Idiot of the month......

[Paul1566]

What do you call a bloke who fits new cv boots to his drive shaft....

Puts it all back in and tightens it up with just the drive flange to fit...

When going in the garage to get another bit of rag....

Notices that the circlip that holds the tri bearing on is still sat on the vice...

ME...... what a plonker....

Had to take it all back out and put the clip on....

Felt like smacking me head on the wall....

All done now and getting a dab hand at removing drive shafts....

Need a new trolley jack tho' as mine has decided to stop working propley
think that the piston seal is shagged.......
Gunna get a bigger one as mine hasn't got much lift any ideas on a good place to shop ?

Edinburgh is quite good, but I prefer Glasgow or East Kilbride.
