Went out in the Tourer to see if the back axle with some new bearings was quieter than the spare.
The answer is, yes its quieter than it was, but not as good as the spare.
And the brakes are awful, despite the shoes looking new (but maybe 30 years old).
But the keyways on the spare are shot. The brakes are lock-up good, though.
Buy new half shafts for the spare? (Gulp)
Swap the brakes over and assume the slight whine will stay a slight whine?
Swap half shafts?
Dunno. Think about it.
The point of this is that I have successfully posted a photo, again
