You need to use the thin thrust washer from your diff but not the thick one. It becomes more clear when assembling! If you need any more help just ask.

Thanks for the info

Well I fit the diff with the lock right in today.

WOW is it weird to drive on the road! I was already struggling with the lack of power as I'm used to the TD5! It seems to all be working correctly altho I havent tested it off road yet but turning into junctions is something I'm going to have concentrate on!

Has anyone got any tips on how I should alter my driving style!!!:laugh:

Hope everyones got on alright installing their lock rite. I've been out for a drive in my Jimny with the lock rite installed and its unoticable on open road, there is a very light clicking on roundabouts and tight bends but it makes a loudish clunk reversing on full lock driving on tarmac. Is this about right? Any comments would be appreciated.
