No, I did have some vauge recollection about Salisbury's being a bit more difficult .............  so I checked first ...............   :shock: .  Having had a look at the rear drive flanges and half shafts I think wev'e found the ar$e end problem, better check the oil though.  :roll:

Intresting to hear that, having read up a bit there is a lot of reference to special tools etc, but a search through old topics on here has found quite a few who have set them up "by feel"  :shock:

The diff in question is from my Son's 110, you can probably see from the picture that the end float of the drive flange is a "bit" excessive
 :D

well mine was set up "by feel" but I must admit to being good with the spanners. Its almost a year later and several abusive off road days later and it is still strong and its not like the vehicle is a pull it out and only use it at the weekends vehicle I do at least 50 miles a day in it too and from work.

While I have a reasonable confidence with the spanners, I'm also like to read what I'm doing first  :D  Once I've done it a few times, I guess you will get a feel for it, but I'm not there yet.

rollazuki:
The salisbury does need a special tool to open out the case, but, it can also be squeezed top to bottom to achieve the same result(probably easier to Ghetto fab some apparatus to do this........)

Or try to rent an appropriate tool, theres more than just the Landy axle needs this tool(lots of Dana axles in yank stuff and light commercial)

drum:
I think I've found what I want, in Book 3, of the old 110 workshop manuals circa mid 1980s, Thanks for the help guys, I'll come back if it's not what I think.

Thanks Rolla, I'll still be at the pub, but shouldn't need the books thanks I think I've got what I need now.
