Anyone do their CV's before? Got any tips or tricks for getting the new ones seated?

@Texoma how do you get your new CV's in? I greased the new shaft and the c-clip is with the open end facing down.

 

OK, finally all put back to this year's version of summer! The "roll it up" option didn't work for the front, so I just did a tuck and tie wrap job!


And my reward? First Cherry Tomatoes, and one Gypsy Bell have shown up!

 

Missed this somehow. Looks awesome!!

 

Got it, just needed a bigger hammer

 

Not sure which way the clips are supposed to be seated, but when ive done this with chris, weve used a long pry bar, and hammered on one of the metal sections of the axles to get them into place

 

The master of BREAKING CV's might have some tips, right @CedarPark ?

 

Rear end done
I’m done

 

Nice job, hows it drive?

 

Damn castle nut is just spinning the shaft. Guess it's time for a new link.

 

Mine looked like this taken off. I've been happy with the MevoTech stuff that @Texoma put on for me.

 

Yep

 

Front end tomorrow and master cylinder
Bleed brakes
Beer

 

Got a late start
Neighbor returned some crap
Trooper stopped by

 

That looks great, the back field here has some flowers but nothing like that

 

Thanks guys. I’m trying to get the aesthetics and armor the way I want prior to touching the suspension and engine.

 

Wow, median price of a new home in Caldwell County jumped 26% to $202K in the past year. Highest jump in central Texas. Guess were not "Kansas" anymore!

 

Yes! We have a nice field behind the house before the RR tracks - it's a street than never existed. Not crowded like BigDaddy's, but tons of big islands of those, bluebonnets, and lots of others. City mowed it yesterday though...

 

Caldwell county is getting out of hand. I’m glad we got out when we did, our house in Luling paid us back well, but I’m not sure we went far enough. Im starting to see the same trends in Gonzales.

 

What's up y'all? Been away from the forums for way too long.
