Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

    Might would be a way to stop the bolts ripping up the flange, preventing the grease having any way to get out.

      Yer Pete gets the win, was thinking of the later driveshafts with the different style cv boots, and forgot that the early models mount on the outside of the flange.

      Happy now.
