Getting Outer CV Spline through hub.

Recommended Posts

:lol: Struggled to get them off and had to buy new hub and new cv joint, now i'm struggling to get them back together, have got spline half way in, just pushed on, but won't go the other half on.

 

Afraid to go hitting it with a hammer incase it damages the new bits.

 

Any tricks to do this? Should be simple by all accounts, just pull off and push on?

 

Would it be safe to have spline halfway in, i can get hub nut on the end, then lower car and tighten hub nut to pull the cv joint through? or is that dodgy?

Yes you can use the spline nut, is there enought thread? But dont lower the car, just tighten the nut slowly with a ratchet or a impact gun while holding the brake disc ( put two wheel bolts and counter hold with a long crow bar across)

Will try that tomorrow, thanks :)

 

I have got enough thread to get the nut on, will get the brake disc on and see how it looks.
