Pinched from 205 drivers,Its also in the haynes manual, chapter 6 transmission; Crownwheel securing bolts; 65Nm / 48lbft. chipstick, on 07 Jan 2013 - 10:23 PM, said: Talking of torque. When refitting the diff housing, what torque should the 11 and 16mm bolts be done to, and the 3 speedo drive housing ones? Haynes lists various torques but none of those. When it comes to sealing, I didn't notice any sealent upon removal. Is that correct? If not, what should be used? Also in haynes chapter 6; Final drive half housing bolts, M10; 41Nm 30lbft Final drive half housing bolts, M7; 12Nm 9lbft. Speedometer pinion adaptor; 12Nm 9lbft Final drive extention housing bolts ; 15nm 11lbft Sealant shouldn't really be needed but I tend to put a thin bead of rtv on the mating faces. Hope this answers your question Steve!  ________________________________________ Team Running Engine again!Team Negative Camber! My Budget track engine build thread!

Next question: Are you meant to tap the bearing race up against the tapered rollers with a little force on the m10 bolts to create a bit of preload?I had the crap idea of fitting my new 'box with the diff and housing removed then fitted them once the box was in place, what a bugger of a job that was! Now I've got some side to side play in the diff and wondering the best way to set it up right, I'll be gutted if I wreck this new box through my own stupidity. ________________________________________ Goldie the track car. |

No not yet, I'm assuming I should slacken of the diff housing bolts slightly then fit that to press it in the correct amount?I looked in the Haynes manual and couldn't find anything about the diff. ________________________________________ Goldie the track car. |

no need to do that, just bolt it on, that's what holds the diff bearing in and sets the preload on it.________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |
