Awesome. I'm presuming it feels a bit soft and free is that it's new parts and the box isn't mounted yet? I also connected linkages and the gear lever can select gears without pressing clutch pedal

If the bearing is located properly, then you should be able to refit the arm and it sit almost parallel with the driveshafts, but towards the bulkhead slightly.  You should also have been able to look through the inspection hole at the top of the bellhousing as the box was going on to see the fork slip behind the bearing.  ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone |

I think it must be behind as the arm is parallel to bulkhead and its impossible to move it by hand towards the rad... |

The housing is 3 bolts, If it's off then the shim has fallen out, this needs fitting back or the diff bearings wont have any pre load on them________________________________________ 306 Rallye Sptint/Race Car, 205 CTI 1.9 8v to name a fewRoad, Track and Race/Rally car preparation to your personal requirements, Full Workshop & Diagnostic Facilities New and Second parts, from Plugs to Turbo's We now also carry out Routine Servicing www.pugracing.com & FB Page, https://www.facebook.com/PugRacing Ebay; http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Pug-Racing-Shop 2012/2013/2014/2019 Class Winners at Gurston Down Speed Hillclimb & Joint overall, Class record too along the way, |

Miles,I think he meant that the bellhousing was bolted up temporarily with 2 bolts not the speedo housing. ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone |

Miles means the 'metal ring that fell out from somewhere', its one of the shims to make sure the diff bearings are suitably held in position. Without it the bearing will probably disintegrate pretty rapidly, and I would hate this poor chap to have to go through all this again!________________________________________ Oulton Park in a BTCC 306 vid 1Oulton Park in a BTCC 306 vid 2 Lap of the 'ring |

Cool, I was pretty sure that ring was for the diff, it just goes in before the speedo housing right? I've also got 2 massive thick washers that I can't remember where they came from? It's bolted up and mounted now so nearly time to test if its been done properly lol |

stick some pics up of what you haven't got fitted.from memory there's one under the stud for the mounting, so can't think where another one would have come from. the diff bearing shim is 62mm o-d, 55.2mm i.d, and the thick one under the mounting stud about 3mm thick rougly 60mm in diameter with a 14mm hole. ________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

just attacked my 205 one. my top arm was seized on there solid and the pin was mashed. drilled through it and just as i got to the last bit the casing inside the box at the top where the bush presses against it snapped! (the thin circular webbing bit purely for the bushes to sit around) so hoping it holds up enough to allow movement without too much play ________________________________________ 306 rallye reproduction decals (full sets/individual decals) | 306 b-pillar textured vinyl weatherstrips306 slam panel esso stickers | 306 yellow / orange / pension fund red side door badges gti6 inlet manifold badges | 306 rear boot badges (p2/p3) winner of Extraction of toys from prams with outstanding vigour award 2009 [source: gti6 owners club] |

top bit where the yellow bush grips onto. the circular metal webbing around the top of the box. the thinner bit has snapped off i think there's enough there for the teeth on the bush to grip to. i could always weld a little arch in there i suppose. i will see ________________________________________ 306 rallye reproduction decals (full sets/individual decals) | 306 b-pillar textured vinyl weatherstrips306 slam panel esso stickers | 306 yellow / orange / pension fund red side door badges gti6 inlet manifold badges | 306 rear boot badges (p2/p3) winner of Extraction of toys from prams with outstanding vigour award 2009 [source: gti6 owners club] |

I think I've worked it out, the big washer under the stud and the smaller one sits perfectly on top of the mount before the 18mm nut. |

That can't be the one that fits above the stud, certainly not as standard as the standard fit washer has a "D" shaped hole in the middle of it to accomodate the flat section of the stud. ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone |

I can't think where one of those would go, unless you've had the top engine mount off?the only one that goes under the nut is one with a D shaped hole. ________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |
