I haven't seen them in Northampton.  However, 39698 was on the one today.

36220 on the 86 has a real noisy back axle and sounds like something is on the way out. Can the cost of fitting a new diff be justified or could its days be numbered? How does the Fleet Engineer make the call?

Yes, of course it can.  What makes you think its the diff anyway?

Scrap the thing. The gearbox and turbo are knackered on 36220 too.

It's 36220 they're talking about.  It's not that old, I think they'll repair it.

I suppose thats my question really. At what stage in the vehicles life does it not make sense to replace a major component like a diff, gearbox or turbo, or whatever?

Well done Mr Clever, I clearly stated I was on about 36220...

[Ashley 60171]

Ally's comment started with said fleetnumber. Your initial reply reads "36220 too" so why the unnecessary attitude?

[YN64AOG]

Let's cut all this talk.  It's 36220 and we all know it.
