Two questions;

1. which side should the "ridged" side of the ball cage face when installed? towards the axle or away? I think it is away from the axle but I didn't take a good enough 'before' picture to tell (oops).

2. One of the used joints I bought in Ventura is different than the others. It has larger balls and a lot more axial travel than the rest. It shows some wear but not extreme spalling like on the ones I am replacing. Is this a rebuilt joint? Is more axial play normal in rebuilt joints?

Thanks in advance for any help. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

Here are the ridges.  The other side is smooth.
Ignore the fact that the center race is installed upside down.

ok, i'm looking at my 944 CVs as we speak and the cage has no ridges on either side. perfectly smooth ...
