Hi all -
I got my axle out and am cleaning up the CV joints, reassembling, etc. I
haven't had much time to finish the job yet but I wanted to ask about
something curious. When I removed the RR 1/2 shaft, on the tranny end of
the axle, a small disc fell down on the ground. I didn't see it fall so I
don't know where it goes. My only guess is that it was between the CV joint
and where it mates on the tranny. However, I can't seem to find it
referenced in the Bentley. It's like a cap almost and is slightly larger
than a US quarter. What would this be and do I reinstall it? I was
wondering if it was something that should actually be there.
If no one knows what I'm talking about, I can take a picture of it tonight
and post.
There was NOT one on the "wheel" side of the axle.
Thanks,
- Bryon
