In the process of cleaning and repacking the cv joints. Everything went together well but when it comes to replacing the (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) retaining clip on the axle, I can't get the joint far enough on the axle to reinstall the thick retaining ring. So, do I replace with a conventional clip (with plier holes/thiner) or leave the joint to "float" without clips??
