    Once you have tensioned your wheel bearings to the correct spec insert the new Brass locking tab.



    Install the locking nut and tighten





    Bend the tabs of the brass tab over the inner and outer nuts to lock them both in.

    Install the Hub Spacer



    Grease up the "Egg Ring" Bush



    Install.



    Install the Drive Clutch again.





    Using your multi grips grab the end of the axle and pull it out as far as you can!. You should expose the groove for the Cir-Clip. If you cant get it then something is not seated properly and you will likely have to strip back to the CV and go again! Very Very Frustrating at this time! Make sure you seat Everything well and correctly! 2mm at this time will break your heart! I Promise!.





    Install the Cir-Clip. then time for the Locking Hub. Take the opportunity to clean it out and regrease it ready for the next 100,000kms.





    Use the gasket Goo around the joint again. Keep that water out!



    Anti Seize the bolts and Bolt her up!



    Brake Calliper back on and bolt her up. Take the opportunity to check the brake pads.



    Refit your wheels and tighten your wheel nuts. Tension your wheel nuts to factory spec (147Nm or 108ft/lb) I make a point of greasing my wheel studs to allow the nuts to tension to spec. I have not had a wheel come off and always hold correct tension after tightening properly.

    DONT FORGET! FILL YOUR DIFF WITH OIL! Tip* heat the bottle of Oil in a Pot of hot water the heat up the oil as its thick stuff, it will make it heaps easier to pump in.

    Hope this has been of some help to you guys. Dont be shy if you get stuck. post a question and plenty here will be able to help.

    Cheers MudRunnerTD.

    Doing the above job is the bush can be tough. If you smash a CV in the bush then you will not be installing a full kit through the front end as above to get you back on the road but it is recommended when you get home. Look at that drain plug! the metal goes everywhere!


    A Smashed CV in the bush!!





    Danny was on hand for this one too.



    Yep think she's Knackered for sure!





    he's not a bad Navi! no hesitation! he was straight into it!

    I've done it once when I broke my CV never again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Im trying to keep costs down a bit so looking at a kit on ebay. Im wondering if it looks like it will include everything thats needed.
    This is the one im looking at mainly because it includes the 54mm socket for the hub nuts.
