The fault lay with the rear universal joint - it was totally knackered - a result, diagnosed later, due to the grease nipple falling off and lack of grease to lubricate the joints. This must have occurred since the last service (about 4000km ago).
My first thought was to take
it back to Ndovu and get the garage to replace the unit. However,
Alex insisted that the two of us could tackle the job as I had a few spare
UJ's available.

The job proved relatively easy thanks to the Landy repair magazine and the very useful vice-grip which Colin had kindly modified to fit the rear ladder.
