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

Disco-Ron:
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................

Oz:
Hay give the link ago again... i changed it because i brought it and it was allready out (damaged) so replaced it all the freed on spindle fine and new flange any idea

Disco-Ron:
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.....

Oz:
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
