Drain the gearbox oil.
Loosen and loosen the wheel hub nut.
Remove the relevant wheel.
If during the movement when cornering the car knocks are heard in the front drive, check the joints of equal angular speeds. The hinge must be replaced if play is detected while the drive shaft is shaking or if the protective covers are damaged. It does not make sense to disassemble the hinge, since this work is laborious, and with a torn cover, the dirt that has entered the hinge has already rendered the hinge parts unusable, which cannot be replaced individually. Therefore, it is advisable to replace the hinge assembly, as well as its protective cover. The appearance of traces of grease on the hinge indicates that the cover is torn.
If during operation you notice traces of oil leakage at the points of connection of the front wheel drives to the gearbox, replace the axle shaft seals in the gearbox.
Keep in mind that the right drive shaft 1 is longer than the left 2.
1. Remove the brake hose seal from the bracket on the strut.
2. Loosen the locknut of the outer tie rod end, holding the hexagon rod from turning with the second wrench.
3. Remove the pin.
4. Turn away a nut of fastening of a spherical finger of the hinge of a tip.
5. Install the puller and press the ball joint pin out of the pivot arm.
6. Disconnect the tie rod from the swing arm.
7. Remove the two bolts securing the ball joint to the steering knuckle (flat and spring washers are installed under the bolt heads) and disconnect the support from the steering knuckle.
8. Finally loosen the hub nut.
9. Remove the thrust washer.
10. Remove the CV joint shank from the front wheel hub.
11. Insert a screwdriver between the deflector and the inboard joint housing and tap it with a hammer to knock out the inboard joint shank from the gearbox.
12. Remove the drive by finally removing the hinge shank from the gearbox. Do this carefully so as not to damage the seal.
13. The factory recommends replacing the circlip on the inboard joint shank before installing the drive, regardless of its condition.
14. Lubricate the retaining ring with grease and center it on the shaft so that the ring is not damaged when the pivot is installed.
15. Insert the inner joint shank into the gearbox so that its splines fit into the side gear splines.
16. Insert the outer joint shank into the front wheel hub.
17. With light blows of a hammer on the end face of the shank of the outer hinge along its axis through a wooden spacer, advance the drive until the shank of the inner hinge is fixed in the side gear with a retaining ring. Install all parts in the reverse order of removal. Wherein...
18....use a new hub nut or a nut from another wheel (so that the old jammed part a of the collar of the nut during punching does not fall into the groove b of the shank of the outer CV joint).
19. After tightening the handpiece finger nut to the required torque, tighten it until the nearest slot of the nut matches the hole for the cotter pin.
20. Finally tighten the hub nut (after the car is on the ground), lock it and install the decorative cap. Check and, if necessary, adjust the wheel alignment.
