A bit of a misunderstanding on my part...

Now that I re-read, I think Tom meant "how to's", not "downloads"

Here's what he was talkin' about...

My bad, it's in the how2 section:

You'll probably need these 3: bearing repack, diff drop, CV boot install

You need to decide before you start: are you replacing the entire half shaft including the CV outer races (green cups)?

If you answered yes, then you'll be breaking down the bearings & you'll prolly want Kenny's write-up on that. You'll also need the diff drop instructions to pull the axles from the differential.

If you can re-use the outer races, then your job will be much easier & you can just use the CV boot replacement instructions.

When my CVs went Tango Uniform, the axle shop was able to machine the races whilst mounted so they didn't have to go through removing the differential brackets.

BTW, thanx Ldub for making sure that the whole WORLD knows that I suffer from brain farts on occasion!!! (actually, I was just having a Handee moment).

You'd be suprised. I got a PM from a guy there the other day. It said:

That roughly translates to: 'The offset looks great on your Proton'
