Thanks for the info Ray.

The way things ended up I had to drop the end of the gearbox anyway to make the engine fit better under the bonnet. With the alignment now I also think I should be able to use the rubber coupling at the front like Westfield do and with a bit of luck that will reduce the shock loading on both the gearbox and diff.

With regard to brineling, the Sierra has everything pretty much in line, and you're right - when I checked the rear UJ on my donor it had obviously worn heavily in one position. Hopefully it won't affect me too much with the mileage I'm likely to be doing.

Matt
