Not yet seen it Frank but looking now!!

£150 plus vat to buy one. Ain't really cheap. No real difference in side window weight as polycarb 4mm and think glass 3? Was same weight on my old corolla. Maybe time to start trimming brackets etc as free.

Did you buy the rear window Frank or make it?

Anyone putting an entry in for this west Wales classic rally. Entries out late last night. Mine went in this morning.

Found out what the issue was. Picture below. Was banging a fair bit and handling was bit weird but thought it was due to the forestry roads. I'm assuming this isn't unusual

Gapped my iridium plugs to 1.1 mm. 2.2 sounds big. Are you running standard plug leads etc? Maybe the Bosch plugs work differently to mine. What's the next performance mods(Y)

Few updates on the car. I've been busy putting it back to roadrally spec. Fitted carpets, rear seats n shelf fitted, cutout boot carpet so 14" wheel spares can be fitted, also re fitted my spot lights. I'm doing the twilight road rally on 3/4 September. This would be a cracking rally for anyone...

The recess in the end of the diff is where I thought the circlip was meant to fit. Blonde moment. Can't believe so many issues sealing a driveshaft

Tried remeasuring again today pollyp and seems I was looking at the incorrect area for the circlip to connect. Put circlip back in again. Slightly opened up soba bit tight going in and also did franks mod the same time. Run the car for 5 mins, no leaks. Went for a skid up the mountain. No leaks...

Thanks for the picture. Your description makes perfect sense. I'm off in garage now with a coffee and a fresh mind to have another look.(Y) need car done today!!

No will do in the morning though. They do look identical though.

I've the earlier diff with no speedo etc. Your shafts don't move at all? I can't understand how the circlip is in the incorrect place though. Will try few more things in morning such as franks suggestion above etc. No one has a picture of an inner cv joint to compare? Got 2 spare long shafts but...

Mmm I'll look into it in the morning. Bloody cars!! Thanks for the help
