Got it removed today.
After getting one from Northy that he'd replaced I was able to understand a bit more on how it came off, originally i thought it wasnt removable if you lot can remember. Dont have any pullers of any sort, CV joint for the bin anyway, just took a hammer to it and smashed the hell out of it (rough arse i am) and away it came, took A LOT of persuading.
Heres my question.
I bought the shafts with struts springs hubs discs etc and they were advertised as 172, but look at the size of the cv joint compared to the one that i got off northy? Its miles bigger?
Could it be 182 setup?
Or did some 172 differ in size?
Look at the ABS ring, its miles out compared to one off northy?
Hoping that Im not going to have any issues on this going to 172 widetrack with the parts I have already purchased?
The one from Northy is the one on the right...the one on the left is the one i removed from what i purchased....
FFS!!!!!
