Does anyone have a writeup on how to install a CV joint on the axle?
I'm uncertain of which goes first and in what direction. Here is a pic of the kit: (IMG:http://www.pmbperformance.com/i//CV_Joint_Kit.jpg) Thanks |

Use whichever washer matches the one you took out, and it goes dished side toward the CV Joint. Use the smap ring that matches what came out, thoroughly grease the new joint before installing it on the axle, put the rest of the grease in the boot. USE THE WHOLE TUBE! Reuse any load spreading hardware, and get new schnorr washers.
That kit doesn't appear to be for a 914, BTW. If that's what you intend to use it for, better make sure it fits. The Cap'n |

The Cap'n I don't trust anything i'm disassembling on this car. POwners used retarded mechanics, i'm going through everything piece by piece and finding the stupidest things. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) Question is, how many washers do I use? The concave spline one and/or the convace solid one? Thanks |
