Mines around 45mm  :undecided: I changed the front and rear ARB's so dont know it I would have got any knocking off the drive shaft, I thought its best to do it all at the same time.
I often wonder why people never expect sarcastic comments from me - they're the only reason I speak...

Yeah they look the dogs doo dahs mate
Word of warning with the metal dust caps though, make sure you undo them every once in a while, had em on my navara over winter and the salt/git had corroded them and they rusted to the valves, when it went in for a service the checked the tyre pressures and they were waaaaaaay out so the had to cut the valves off and fit new ones  :shocked: (only cost £20 to fix but it's £20 that could be better spent on beer)
