SOS: Calling all DIY Cerb owners .
Discussion
Evening all, need a huge favour if anyone can help me out with this one.
Long story short, I'm taking the Cerb France on Thursday morning, and last week started on the list of jobs that needed doing, one of which was replacing 2 of the CV joints, which I already had in the garage Once I got it stripped down, the other two really had seen better days so on Monday ordered 2 more on an overnight for delivery today. No sign by 2pm, rang supplier told will be there by 4pm latest. 5pm still no sign, rang again, told it's being sorted, no sign by 6pm and have now just been told that there's some c0ck up with the courier and they are now being delivered tomorrow by 4pm instead. Sheet!
To be fair the supplier is bending over backwards to help me track them down at the depot and collect them but I'm not hopeful.
So, question is, do any of the spanner handy amongst us have 2 CV joints 'in' stock' that I can come and collect this evening, anywhere within a 50 mile radius of London. When mine do eventually turn up, I'll replace them with those.
Here's hoping.....Thanks all.

Collected the new cv's at 9am, started work at 1030am. Both shafts were avec CV joints n boots and ready to refit, by 1pm just finished my lunch and am popping them back on the car now. Should be able to road test at 330pm (ish) , then quick wash, once over on the fluids, pressures etc, gather the euro driving gubbins (hi-vis, bulbs etc) and then pack. Should be all done by 7pm. Eurotunnel is 0700 tomorrow, so 12 hours to spare.... Sorted..... Trying to keep the 'it's sorted' face on to my wife last night was the hardest part of the job tho

Have a great drive
