Michael,

Great pictures and descriptions. Thank you. I archived your
thread with the other good VO joint threads.

You can disassemble the outboard CV joint by tipping the
axle half-shaft to the side and removing the balls and cage.

What did you use for sealant between the end cap and the
inboard CV joint? Porsche calls for some white sealant
included in the kit. I am concerned about having much
elastic material in the “sandwich” that the CV joint bolts
have to clamp and compress tight.

Good job. Remember to re-torque the bolts soon
(100-200 mi) and then regularly.

For others doing this, note how the joint is assembled.
You can get it assembled wide-to-wide and narrow-to-
narrow but the joint locks up and is non-functional.




Best,
Grady
