im fittin new CV joints and bearings to the disc setup hub. but the outer housing on the cv joint seems too big, its a really tight fit into the hub,
is this normal?
if so, how do i go about getting it into the hub without damageing it?

thanks

tight fit or wont fit... ?

[JoeBodge]

well the chaffered part fits in, but the rest dont. if you get what i mean

extract the bearings from the hub and check the fit on the CV out of the hub... they should be a 'snug' fit

[JoeBodge]

well the cv fits into the hub without the bearings in fine, but once the bearings are in to last bit of the CV wont fit in. will remove the bearings and have a go tomoz - thanks
