No mate never finished it. After reading the how todo on here it says a 32mm for drive shaft i bought a 32 an doesnt fit . So me being me i missed that part of the job and started cutting were needed to be cut.(arm to access rear bolt and bottom of the thread off ball joint) so i could remove the arm. I thought i might of had enough room to offer the new arm in (ball joint part) but never managed to do it but now the arm is off theres a lot of movement making it hard to get a turn on the not 32mm. So a mates calling around tomorrow with a impact gun thingy. Not sure if i can put wheel back on and just lower it so the wheels just touching the to stop all the play.
And take a breath haha defender 90 matt black 300tdi

Glad to hear you used a blade rather than a disc.
This can happen if a disc lets go:

There's a new style of driveshaft nut now being used that's often found when a CV or driveshaft has been replaced, and as you've discovered, it's 36mm.

If you have not removed the disc and caliper then use a big screw driver inbetween the disc cooling holes and wedge it on the cailper to undo the hub nut.

One of the joys of using an impact gun is that it does not try too hard to rotate the axle when removing the nut.
