Hi all I have just purchased an 86 MK turbo diesel fitted with the auto locking hubs. I went to the wreckers to grab some genuine manual ones , all good undid the 6 allen key bolts hub came off. Got home and tried to fit them up and it looks like something is missing. Is there another locking ring behind the circlip I need to lock the hub to the axle? Do i just remove all the stuff behind the circlip from the auto locking hub aswell? I tried doing a search but couldnt really find the answer.
