I tore up my outboard cv boot on my last ride and i have a couple questions about repacing it.

1. Will it be possible to replace the boot by just removing the two bolt/pins that hold the hub assembly on? Or would it be easier to take the whole hub off? It looked like if i left the one bot in the stabilizer bar? it would swing out enough to get the boot off.

2. When I put the boot back on do i compltely fill the boot with grease or just grease the joint liberally?

Thanks in advance for the help.

Oxlite CV gaurds are on the agenda now.....

 

Someone!! I need help!!!!

I have taken the hub assembly loose. I thought that the axle would slid out of the hub assembly. I guess I thought wrong. Do I need to take the nut off of the center of the hub assembly?? Please someone help me!!! My $5000 dollar toy is broke and i can't ride it. help.

 

Anyone??? I'm sure someone in here has put a cvboot on a rancher/rubicon/foreman/300.
please help

 

Yeah you need to take the nut off to get the hub off. I think you just grease the joints liberaly and throw the boot on and put it all back together. Least thats what I did with a yamaha big bear I put a new front end on for a friend. Havent had any problems since.

 

thanks for your help nee4speed. i didn't think getting help on something as common as CV replacement would bee that hard.

If i'm still havin problems tonite i'll keep askin for help.
