pinion flange

Post by henry »

Yes as patrol man says it swaps straight over and the tension settings for the nut is between 196-284 nm. Over tighten it and you will increase preload on the pinion bearing and cause premature failure. Leave it too loose and it will cause premature failure of the bearings.
I ought to report you to the f#cking RSPCA neville.
