CV joint assembly, writeup? Options

[yarin]

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:

I started installed the CVs and ran into a few options.

With the axles i'm using, i assume they are 914-4 axles, you should use the solid concave washer without the splines. (The kit comes with both). Then tap the CV onto the shaft. Without compressing the CV onto the shaft, there is exactly enough space for the C clip. However the other clip pictured here is the exact thickness of the slot, double the thickness of the C-clip, leading me to believe a press should be used to compress the concave washer and slide the clip in place. Dissasembly of the old CVs revealed flat washers that appear to have been installed then pressed.

Maybe i'm looking too far into all of this. If I follow the factory manual it says use the C clip, and don't press anything. I just don't want my stuff falling apart down the road.

Comments?
