y60 swivel hub rebuild problem - help required
Posted: Thu Oct 13, 2011 8:07 pm
hi,
after a search i cant find any previous topics that answer my problem
i'm putting a swivel hub kit in my y60 ute. my problem is that for an 'unknown reason' it sames the new cv isnt on the axle properly. so when i push on the stub axle it sits about 4-5mm off the hub housing. i can bolt it up but this puts pressure on the swivel bearings (enough to crush one side of one). the new cv doesnt seem to have the small amount of movement on the internal snap ring. i flogged the F*** out of it with a rubber mallet this arvo with no success. this is the first time i've done this rebuild completely by my self so any pointers are appreciated.
cheers micko
