Got the tranny in now. So what is the rundown for connecting the CV's?
Have new bolts, washers, gaskets. Also got some synthetic CV grease. Do you just pack it full of grease and bolt it up? Should I use some kind of sealant in addition to the gaskets? Thanks, dr |

32lb ft of torque on the bolts...
dont pack them withgrease.. the enertia of the rotating grease in a racing situation will split the boots and sling grease everywhere. Dont overload the CV's with grease (short version) I grab two fingers worth of grease from the grease tube/tub 3 times. Make sense ? dont use sealant on the CV gaskets B |
