Having major troubles with getting the diff together, fitted the output shaft with fibre washer, the fitted the first pin along with the planet gear and thrust washer and just with that much assembled the diff is locked solid, absolutely will not turn. Is it the fibre washer on the output shaft causing me greif? Wasn't easy fitting the first half pin either, as if it's butted tight up against the output shaft. Anybody know to any solutions?

Use a good used fibre washer. New ones actually come in two thickness.

Is it A-Series only? I think it should be... So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'... On 26th Oct, 2004 Tom Fenton said:

My original Minispares one was actually supplied (accidentally I presume) with the wrong washers.

I had to put used ones in mine. If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of. |

Sorted now gents, like a complete and utter gibbon I failed to see the old fibre washers on the output shafts....once removed the new ones dropped in perfectly and all went well! Must've been late when I was trying to put it together the first time in poor light. On 26th Jan, 2012 Tom Fenton said:
