Ahh you mean the crownwheel clearance!
That could sort the problem, just not sure it 'feels' like its that easy a fix, but worth a shot non the less! Would save me a lot of money because I would no doubt somehow talk myself into some lockers if the diff was gone ![]() |

Could partly be my fault as I learned my basic skills in the army. My assumption that a workshop manual was incorrect as apparently its not a normal workshop job. The pirate link really lays it out lol I too require picture stimulation lol. certainly demonstrates how to adjust although the thread is about replacement
