A New Austin Seven Owner
#22
Wow thanks for all the replies! Some really useful information there, I can see myself referring to this thread many times in the future for help and resources.
I'm in the process of ordering a copy of the red book and other spares/tools that I need from sellers that you've suggested.

David, thank you for your kind offer, I will send you a PM shortly. I do hope that the axle ends aren't knackered too....but I had no idea shrinking them was even possible!?

Reckless, in this case I'm certain the offside kingpin is properly knackered. The knocking may be coming from elsewhere, however if put the handbrake on and try and rotate the wheel an audible knock is coming from that pin and visible movement in the joint. The nearside does have some up and down play which I would consider acceptable (I've owned LDV's for years and theyre always like that to a certain extent) so I'm undecided whether to change it while the axle is out.

With regards to my out of round wheel drum, I think its due to a pitted area, is it worth trying to have it turned or better to just replace?
