Rojer's 200T

Day 3 of fighting the driveshaft. My hydraulic press came and it did nothing. Went back to the original tool and managed to get it to pop. After a bit more fighting it's out.

I had to sacrifice some of the threads on the joint. I take it that it's not worth repairing the threads and just buying a new joint? Given the state of the old one, it's probably no bad thing.

Another hour or so this evening dodging the rain. I desperately wanted to clean around the rocker cover as it was caked with oil and grime everywhere. Stripped it back a little for better access to give it a good scrub. Its not perfect, but the rocker area looks a million times better.

Whilst I was there I replaced the turbo gasket seal and torqued to 22NM as per manual. Someone had previously tried to silicone the old one. Found a bolt for the hot side pipe that was also missing and had a general tidy up.

Got the old crappy broken badge off and replaced it with a new one. Looks a million times better.

Spent the last bit of time cleaning up some of the CV grease and grime that had gone everywhere. Looks like its going to rain the rest of the week so I will have to wait until the weekend to carry on.

Just for @YorkshireKyle
