Working on that white Fresno car and I have two rebuilt CV/axles but one has pins, two per side, and the other does not.
I have two spare (needig servicng) that have dowels - can I just lmoves the dowels over to the ready to use ones? Thanks, cranking to try to get this done and I really appreciate everybody’s help! (I did try searching first) |

To further the response above.
Yes they are required. The prevent the two parts from moving relative to one another in shear. It would take way more clamp load then the four fasteners could provide to keep the surfaces from moving relative to one another under load. |
