Do I re-pack it like a wheel bearing or just squirt some grease in there or what? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/051103-stupid4.gif)
Many thanks! Konrad 72/4 |

Your FLAPS will have packets of CV grease, one for each CV. I cleaned my CVs with degreaser and remove all old grease and dirt. Then spray with carb cleaner to remove remaining residue.
Press grease into CV and work into the joint. Pack inside and outside until all grease is used up. If you're just cleaning and regreasing, don't turn the CV too much or a bearing or 2 may pop out. They're not fun to get back in. Spoke |
