Two different spline counts; 27 for 86 through 94 and 31 (same as Safari) for 95 on. Some of the hubs have an interferance with the thrust washer base. You have to grind the lip back to get them to clear. Other than that, quite easy. Pays to check wheel bearings for play at the same time as it is easy to adjust while it is all apart :wink:

Cheers,
I keep looking for the loose nut behind the wheel, but I can't find it!!

Thanks for that! Hopefully all will go well on the day, will it be obvious what I'm suppose to grind if I can't get them out? Cheers

This cup looking part is what you MAY have to grind.
