It could be the pipes from the tank, mine corroded. If it is, it isnt a big job.

Today I have found that my wheel bearings are a little knackered :( I am hoping to be able to find some and replace in time :x

It would appear the pipes were to blame, some real bodging with some pipe that is 'almost' the right size :? Oh and I've got one less bolt holding it up than before :evil:
