Storm 0 Posted June 27, 2004 I put my engine in this week end and the drive shaft must have been knocked as the engine went in. There are 4 large ball bearings on the floor. As it started to rain I had to go in. Have I done some expensive damage? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted June 27, 2004 You've knocked the inner CV joint and taken it past it's normal operating angle, so the balls have fallen out.... :roll: As long as you've got all the balls, and they're clean and not pitted, then you should be able to re-assemble it with no problems... 8) Make sure you use plenty of Molybdenim grease when you put it back together though... :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Henny 0 Posted June 28, 2004 like a long weight, can of tartain paint, a tub of Engine coolant for a 1972 VW Beetle, etc etc etc?!? ;) :lol: :D Yeah, Molybdenim always sounds odd... most people say Moly grease... :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
