Title: Is this driveshaft flange seated correctly?
Post by: Gloves88 on 17 June 2012, 13:27

Just a quick guestion, Is the driveshaft flange in the picture seated correctly?  :undecided:
(Excuse the poor quality of it - not a great picture taking angle)

I bought a 'new' gearbox but it had one of the flanges missing so I took one off the old box and fitted it.

Just wanted to make sure that it was on correctly, looked like it hadnt seated properly.

It's a tap in type flange - how can i tell that it's the right one for this box? Gearbox is an ASD.
