Right, before you say "go measure the others", I have removed one but it broke and all the others are pretty well stuck in the holes so I am pretty certain I'll break the others if I try to remove them.
Does anyone know the size of the circlip i need for the rear UJ of a Land rover 90? I've taken the broken one down to my local engineering place and none of the ones I've tried from them fit, and so it has left me thinking it might be a odd size??
I only need one..
Cheers
 
I don't know if they are different sizes (probably) for the different UJs but I've just measured teh circlips that came with my UJs (RTC3346G) and they are 1.46-1.49mm thick and 29.29mm diameter (obviously uncompressed).

They UJs are 85mm across cap to cap and the caps are 27mm diameter.

The fact that they came with the UJs is probably of interest to you as well.

Hope that helps.

if yer changing yer UJ, all the ones Ive ever bough have come with new circlips anyhoo (I then chuck the old ones in the toolbox for emergencys)

Thanks for that, I'll go down to the shop with those dimensions and hopefully come back with the right ones this time!

All the UJ's are good, one just was a bit seized so I took a circlip out, bashed it about abit and greased it up and now it works great, just broke the circlip in the process.

Cheers again
