A thank you goes out to Mike Blizzard for supplying me with 2 axles this past weekend. I have taken them apart and cleaned the 40 year old grease out of them. I have watched Van Svensen's video on youtube and he showed 1 ?spider? with the same problem. He just turned his around. The outer portion of these CVs shows some wear.
 I would have thought the outer would have more wear. But maybe the wear comes from poor lubrication? I still have the 2nd axle's joints to clean up, but that will have to wait 'til Tuesday.  The cage shows only a slight bit of shine where the balls sit. All the other goodies are cleaned and show not wear. Missing 2 schorr washers, so somone had been in here before me.  My limited knowledge of this tells me that both of these joints are bad and to call Eric and get me some new CV joints. I can't imagine that there are any good used joints left, or parts for that matter. Anyone agree.... disagree? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chowtime.gif) |
