Integra CV joint fell apart, NEED TO FIX TOMMOROW!
 

I was pullign my axles to swap trannies, and my DS axle fell apart. Its still stuck in the hub, and the cv boot and all is still attached to the intermediate sahft (does not come out, faulty sahft maybe? Had this isssue last time) and the axle caqme out of the boot. I am looking at the three pronged thing with the corcle thigns on it with sqaures on them...if you ahve evr pulled an alxe apart you know what Iam talkign baout. Anyways, I ahve to get it back into the joint, and I have to get them all to line up at the same time and slide in. Any tips? its fuckign impossibele.

Ah the good ole square bitch bearings. Those things ------ suck. Actually the are rectangles and they will only go in on one side. It's not too hard to put it back in. Just take the band off carefully, slide the boot up ou of the way, and get someone else to help you. Get some gloves on too (latex or nitrile, etc), cause it will be messy. Just line them all up and hit the top of the joint and they will slide right in. Then just put the boot and the clamps back.

Haha, I wish it worked that way. I gave up after two hours, will hit it up again today.

woo-woo.

Got the fucker done. SO annoying. Took me about 3 hours to get them all lined up, greased again, and clipped back. And if I got it perfect the first time around, would have taqken ~30 seconds. Haha, life is fun. :P
