    julianf replied to the thread Front radius arm removal.
    If you use stands off the chassis, does it matter if the axel moves? Its position is controlled by the arms so, when you refit them, the position will be regained. You may need some force to move the axel on refitting but it's not going to be...

    If you google "300tdi wiring diagram pdf" then youll get a 300 tdi wiring diagram, with all the wire colours. Even if yours is earlier, the wires will be the same colours. You want the "indicators and hazards" page. Looks like its green with a...

    The not-modern one. Some late 200s are disc brake, but im thinking yours must still be drum, so it has lower number of fatter splines on the ends of the shafts.

    Ps they do them as a kit also, iirc. You get the Allen cap hub fasteners, which allow you more flexibility with alloys, and some other bits.
  • julianf
    Yep, but.. You need to make sure they match up with your age of half shafts (spline number) so don't just buy the exact ones linked to, as that may not be the right code. Getting the seal out of the rear axel isn't complex but it's not a 5 min...

    You can get the ashcroft / terrafirma screw on ones also, and remove the half shaft seal on the rears, for oil lubricated bearings.

    As i remember, it wasnt getting the bearing in that was the issue, but the circlip that holds it in place. It was years ago, but, im pretty sure, i just pushed the bearing in with a vice and a drift (probably a socket of some size). But i had...

    When I was skint, I changed the bearing in one of them. Took me hours to get the bearing out using very basic tools. I vowed id just buy the whole thing if I ever needed to again. But... If you had the tools, you could just put in whatever...

    I think, if you're a rivet counter, those ones are to be painted before riveting. Check, as I'm not sure, and can't be bothered to look it up now.

    Make sure your bank account is healthy. And then find some more money from somewhere.

    Be aware that the banjo bolt that secures it on is not a standard bolt. It may look like one, but its not - if you look closely, its got a pinhole, instead of a normal hole. As for the "banjo" itself - you can, im sure, get banjos with two...

    julianf replied to the thread Forum adverts getting crazy.
    Web forums exist due to the information donated by their members. Web forum running cost is exceedingly minimal. Nothing more than a minuscule amount of advertising revenue is required to reach financial parity. We are WAY past that point. The...

    On mine, i replaced the shafts and flanges together (rear), using sealable flanges, and, at the same time, removed the oil seal behind the stub axle, so as the gear oil can run the whole way up to the flange. Ill take it apart at some point in...
