45 to 50 mph all the way, just settling down in the tent for the night now.

It is the way YOU drive!
"My SJ appears to be trying to rip it's own wheels off and turn the bearings into gravel. I shall put my foot down. What could possibly go wrong?"

Don't worry about the wheels, they won't come off
... and the bearings are still OK!!!
When in doubt......... POWER!

Update... Well the old sj did me proud, got us back home with no problems, did about 200 miles over 3 days and only about half a tank of juice. All the fluids are good levels so going to treat her to an oil and filter change soon, especially as I've solved the oil leak from the fuel pump.
