CV Joints continued
Once I had put the rest of the grease in the boot I pulled it up over the lip of the CV joint and applied the retaining strap as in Picture 6.
It is now time to put the spline back on, I cut out a new gasket from appropriate thick gasket paper, there is a recess this fits into on the other half, it will be obvious when it comes time to doing it, I also applied a good amount of grease to this side as in Picture 7. I also applied Hylomar gasket cement to this gasket.
Because of the dowels in picture 7 it may be neccessary to lightly tap the spline onto the dowels as in picture 8.
As in picture 9 the washers and allen key bolts were put back on and tightened down.
The last picture 10 it rewiring the allenkey bolts so that they don't rattle out.
