    Hi

    I've just replaced nearside wishbone and offside driveshaft on a 2004 206 sw (1.4 petrol, MA5 box).

    The driveshaft came from shaftec - having refitted everything, I find a problem - with the inner boot band clamp of all things

    The crimp on the band clamp rides too high to clear the sump flange adjacent to the shaft housing.

    My question is - is there an easy way to bring the crimp height back down without damaging the boot, or is there another workaround for this?

    Should I remove the band ( possibly voiding the warranty ) and replace with a lower profile band? If so, how to remove it without damaging the existing boot?

    Many Thanks, and hope everyone is well
    Jeff
