NOTE

damage and replace if necessary as
described under the Disassembly /
Assembly procedure in this chapter.

for excessive wear or play.

This inner CV joint (inboard pivot joint) can
be serviced if there is wear or play. The
outer CV joint (outboard pivot joint) cannot
be serviced if worn or damage and if
necessary, the drive shaft assembly must
be replaced.
