Removal of the OEM Cross-Axis Joint
 |
 |
| With an external retaining ring pliers, spread the retaining ring and lift with a small pick or small screwdriver. |
When the retaining ring is removed, slip the small removal cup over the boot on the retaining ring side of the cross-axis joint. Be sure to use a little lubricant on the boot. |
|
Be sure to make note of the flange location when removing the OEM cross-axis joint and install the replacement cross-axis joint in the same orientation. |
|
 |
| Use the large removal cup as the receiver on the flanged side of the cross-axis joint. |
 |
 |
| Once the cross-axis joint is removed, clean the bore with scotch bright or steel wool. |
Be sure to apply never-seize to the bore and the O.D. of the new cross-axis joint. |
Installation of the New Cross Axis Joint
 |
| Start the new joint in the bore as
straight as possible, use the small cup on the flanged side and the large cup on the receiving side. Slowly tighten the nuts to press the joint into the knuckle. The joint may tilt slightly when first starting to press it into the bore, but will straighten itself out as it seats into the bore. If you have access to a hydraulic press, use the cups and eliminate the threaded rod. |
 |
 |
| Press the joint in until the flange is fully seated and is tight against the knuckle. |
Once the joint is seated, install the retaining ring with a medium duty external retaining ring pliers. |
