Part 2 Disassembly of the outer CV joint is not necessary as long as you wash it out really good . I'm an auto tech with 50 years of experience and I've never had any problems just cleaning the joint and adding new Grease, if you're afraid that you didn't get enough grease into the joint just squeeze the rest of that pack into the boot it'll work its way into their. By the way I could show you one of those $900 axles for half price price I'll just go to RockAuto and pay 90 bucks just kidding I don't want to beat up on my Canadian Neighbors
@@marlobreding7402 I see that..although at the time of shooting Rock had none… I had to replace the outer boot and unfortunately the outer CV joint was stubbornly stuck on there. So I had to slide the outer boot in from the inboard inside as plan B. On the first go, I did just slide the outer boot back and repack it. Sadly, the universal clamp lasted just one week before it tore the old boot and grease was leaking out. Removing the inboard was the last resort. Good news though is take 2 is working great with a new boot, clamp and grease.. and the joint is happy again :-)
