Hi,
I have an old Austin Gipsy 1968. I noticed that the UJ on the the front drive shaft is showing wear. My question is, is that a WOF issue?
Thank you

Hi there,
It would depend on how much play is observed and if the inspector deems it outside the wof regulations. The wording for axle inspection can be found here: https://vehicleinspection.nzta.govt.nz/virms/in-service-wof-and-cof/general/tyres,-wheels-and-hubs/hubs-and-axles
