[T3] CV concave washer

[Bryon Garvin]

ah...
you beat me to my next question.  So, you got the circlip around the splined
shaft and then tapped it into place?  Am I understanding?

I assume the concave washer provides some resistance to pushing the CV joint
down far enough to get the circlip on?

Did you assemble the joint and then press onto the shaft?  Or did you press
the inside part of the joint on the shaft and then "build" the rest of the
joint around it?

Thanks,
