FINAL DRIVE
8. While pulling out on the CV shaft, fully extend the CV joint
and slide a straight O-ring pick or a small slotted screw
driver between the small end of the boot and the shaft. This
will allow the air pressure to equalize in the CV boot in the
position that the joint will spend most of its life. Before you
remove your instrument, be sure the small end of the boot
is in its correct location on the axle.
9. Install the small clamp on the boot.
10. Be sure to use only the Constant Velocity Joint grease
supplied with boot service kit. IF CV JOINT WAS
CLEANED, add the recommended amount of grease to the
joint in addition to the grease pack supplied with boot kit.

Outboard Joint
- 30g if boot is replaced only. Another 50g (80
total) if joint is cleaned.

- 50g if boot is replaced only. Another 50g (100
total) if joint is cleaned.
