Splitting an outer CV joint

<< < (3/4) > >>

CrewCab:
Glad Ralph got to you in time, I would have concurred with "adjust with a large tapping stick"  :dremel:

I also have some experience with drive shaft's / CV Joints, this was a particularly expensive afternoon out  :bugeye:

Darren:
What on earth were you doing and what was the vehicle?

You did save them for machining up didn't you, that hard stuff machines to a really nice finish.....high speed with good tips.... :thumbup:

Divided he ad:
Glad the micro fine adjusting tool worked  :wack: (replace right hand smiley with CV joint!!)

I know what CC was driving and what he did..... :doh: I'll let him explain.... I'd have to go searching to get it accurate!

Still don't know quite how all 4 got that way :scratch: 



You're right too Darren, that is a crappy design. I have to say IMHO your garage isn't doing it's job right.... I'd have spent time sussing that fault out to a similar conclusion to yours! I never like to change something unless I know why I'm changing it and whether it could be fixed for less £!

Still looks like a hell of a gap though!!  :lol:   But it'll definitely work as a clamp now  :thumbup:

Have you by-passed the brake wear indicators too?




Still nice to see someone having a go..... Just make sure you check all the nuts and bolts twice..... I still do that (Habit) Especially if someone talks to me or I walk off the job while I'm working!


Spent a few hours under a Landy again today, clutch slave and flexi..... Nothing like lying on your back getting brake fluid and powdery grit in your face  :thumbup:  ::)



It's all good fun ehh!?   :lol:







Ralph.
