Axle shaft is done and ready to install.

Back on the car.  Now I have to order a few more items
and then I can complete the installation.

More axle repair

I have been a bit under the weather this past week and a half.  But better now and back to work.

This was another problem area on the axle shaft.  In the picture below the rubber donut would be between the upper and lower flange.  Then bolts would attach top and bottom.  This is where the bolts broke, both the 3 on the outer and 3 on the inner.


These bolts just snapped.  They needed to be removed with
a easy out.

New flange installed


I use a pipe to press the flange on.

I did need to remove the shaft from the upright.  There
was no other way to press it on.

Last thing to do is install the C-clip in the shaft groove.
If it fits. the flange is in the proper position.

The shaft is now reconnected and ready to be placed
back on the car.
