The outer suspension has to be removed on Subs car to remove driveshafts, don't try and tighten that plug anymore Peter, you risk cracking the casing, I fitted that last so I no it's correct.......
Totally Agreed Colin,
From what I could see on wis - you have to undo all (about 4 ) outer suspension struts and swing the wheel carrier out of the way. Hopefully At least the axle wont be jammed in the brand new Hub flange.
Absolutely know it was leak tight and bone dry when it came back from you, as I just found a pic I took to show the parts guy the cross tie strut that was rusty ( now replaced ) cos he didnt know what I meant. Plus currently the filler plug area is also bone dry too. See pic after I swapped the tie bar
I also had a pic taken for the wheel refurbisher to show the damaged flange hub, and in the right corner you can see a squeaky clean bone dry diff ... that was the day before they changed the flange hub. So I know MBS work was perfect
Be ringing you tomorrow to sort her out.
