diff/flange
« on: December 15, 2008, 22:40:12 »
Hay guys

 i got a problem, just wondering if u have ever seen it b4.

fitted a new flange etc to the front axel (200tdi disco) and when u driver it make a grinding noise.
The thing is it has pushed the flange back out. the bolt etc is all in the same palce as when i put it on..

http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=1578618&l=913dd&id=511066710 u can see it is slightly sticking out and if we push it back in and tighten it even again. it just come out more again apon driving.

any idea?


i no its prob not the best discription lol

Can't see any pictures......

Sounds as though it's upset the preload on the pinion........ i also suspect i did the same to my rear 300 diff when i put a 4 bolt flange on that......

Why did you fit a new flange on one thats 4 bolt already................

Did you have the old flange..?????? was it the same as the new one...???? seems odd, i am wondering if you've inadvertant;ly left out a spacer ring.....

yes with the old one and it is the same flange... but by space do u mean between the dust seal and bearing as in no5 on this diagrame http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=1599308&l=70961&id=511066710   if so not sure would assume its there as the dust seal has not come off

I think you need someone more qualifies than me, but you clearly have a problem....... just one other point, in one of the pics it shows the gearbox end of the front diff, if that is the angle it works at normally, the uj won;t last 5 minutes...... or give any space for articulation....
