Post subject: | Reinstalling pot drive shafts |
So i had to remove drive shafts from an engine the other day in order to transfer the engine into another subframe etc. Any who, i did the dirty thing and took the main pot boot off to slip them off (not the best decision i later learned) Regardless, thats where i am now, the pots are missing their inner bits, and one of the boots is shite and getting replaced. Is it a simple case of checking inner cages for all of their balls, packing with grease, sliding them back over pot, and doin up the zip tie thing? |

As long as the joint is not badly worn... Pretty much, yes. |

Not sure how much of them you have lost but at least in regards to the factory ones, there are two 'sizes' of inner bits and they don't inter-change, so keep all the left bits left & the right bits right...... |
