Necro-reviving my own topic.

Went to rebuild the CVs on the other axle and the inner race doesn't have a side with bevel, and I do not see obvious wear in the shape of the washer. One side has stamping marks, other side does not. Is there another tell tale sign of which side goes against the concave washer?

Also, I noticed the cage "edge" has one edge that is more flat than the other. Is the more flat side supposed to face the concave washer?

Thank you!

Side with no stamping goes to the shaft
Thinner edge goes facing out of the cup if I remember correctly

QUOTE(narino @ Nov 28 2022, 12:43 AM) *

After another long pause due to life/work, I'm ready to put the axles back in. When putting the stub axles in should I grease the spline, or use anti seize? Any helpful tips/tricks to putting it back in?

Also, in getting the driver side axle out I ended up tearing out the wiring from the reverse switch. How can I test which terminal to reconnect the wire(s) to?

Thanks all, and thank you Andy!!

Clean the splines in the hub and stub axle before installing.
I use grease to ease the installation. I test fit the stub axle by inserting it from tbe outside.
It does not matter which wire goes to whic terminal on the B/U switch. It is just completing continuity.
