Hello
I am going over my new to me FM and was replacing the CV boots and figured it was time to repack the bearings while I had it apart. I thought I put it back together the same as I took it off but after watching some VW axle rebuild videos I am beginning to 2nd guess how I put the joints back together. Could someone possibly chime in and let me know if I messed this up, Youtube has several opinions as to the correct orientation.
On the wheel hub side or gearbox side (circlip side), I installed the beveled side of the cage, the flat side of the splined inner and the deeper grooved outer race
On the CV boot side, I installed the flat side of the cage, stepped splined inner, and less grooved outer.
Is this order correct? Does it matter? I have seen at least 3 other combinations on YouTube
Also, if anyone knows any FM people in the Denver area, I would love to make contact and see what you all are running for gearing at our local track HPR
Thanks
Marty
