Has anyone run the Diamond Axle drive flanges on a FF axle? Is there a snap ring required to hold the shaft from walking in and out?
I was thinking the same thing.I have the RCV axles on the rear and yes, I had to run a snap ring. I would think the diamond is the same.

But the diamond drive flange looks like a totally different beast.

I'm thinking it would need to be on the inside of the drive flange to stop it from walking into the cap, is that thinking right?
The drive flange and the axle shaft will both be the same speed all the time. So my thoughts are they can touch with no damage. But, if the axle moves in and touches the other shaft they could be spinning at different speeds causing wear... Just a thought....
Edit, after thinking about it, it needs the snap ring holding it toward the wheel. If it slides in, I think it could slide out of the drive flange.
Somehow I just found this thread.
If you have any key holders left I’d love one. Since you’re not doing anything else right now anyway![]()
