Hi, I have my new rear bearings in and was going to pull my wheel hubs in by using my CV joint stub axles. My CV axles are hooked to the trans and I have the stub axle through the inside of the bearing. I previously watched this video https://youtu.be/lnXdjTate5o and in it the guy uses his castle nut to put the stub axle through the inside of the bearing. Problem is my stub axle doesn’t come out through the inside of the bearing far enough to put the cast but on let alone the washer and the cast nut. Am I missing something?

Now that I have my drive axles inner CV joint bolted to the trans and can’t use the stub axle side to pull my wheel hub in, I’m going to have to pull the drive axle back out. I don’t suppose there is any way to separate the CV joint from the trans without destroying the paper gasket? Sometimes watching other people’s videos and there techniques that mysteriously work for them lead you down a bad road. Should have first made sure it was possible before I started to copy the video (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) can order more gaskets Just was hoping to finish that task today.

The gaskets are not likely to survive. They can survive if you don't mind leaving chisel marks on your inside CVs Aim the chisel away from the flange into the outside surface of the CV... NOT into the gasket groove. Alternate between sides at the roll pin area Are your heat exchangers on ? |
