The flange for the CV boots that I bought came with 6 holes. Knowing that only 4 of these would be filled with bolts, I put a bead of gasket material to seal the grease in. This seems to have worked for one side, but the other is steadily coating the underside of my trunk with CV grease.
Any thoughts other than to clean it up and try again? Thanks |

Actually:
The roll pins are on the flange side. They will only go in so far if you put them in the right holes.; the hole has a slight shelf in it. They shouldn't be flush with anything. The two extra holes in the boot should not be letting any grease out. The extra holes go over the roll pin holes, and the roll pins go into sockets in the flange that have no grease in them. More than likely, you left out the flange gasket. Or made an assembly error. G. |
