Rebuild drive shaft cv joint
Steelman - 13/10/08 at 07:53 AM

Is there a trick to re-fiitting the ball bearings race back into the cv housing.
I can get the race and ball bearings back in with no problem but can't get any movement on the joint as it locks up once I have everything back in.
The joint is the bolt on sliding pivot type.

is the cage the right way round?

which joint is this, is it the sliding/pivoting one or just the pivoting.

your not giving us much info really

the slots that the ball bearings run in should cross each other rather than align. Other than that they should be ok.
