bcmaxx Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 My wrx 2.0 , upgraded 4eat and 4.44 swap almost complete, couple things I'm up against on the rear diff swap: outer cv axle stubs are seized in the hubs. and by seized I mean, I'll mushroom them trying to get them out... I need the different style rear cv with the stubs for the newer diff. Can I just swap the inner stub housing cups, new new boots and grease and keep my original shafts and outer joints? or retain my stock outers , just swap on the newer style shafts withthe stub inner joints? and how should the pinion flange be swapped? are they torued or crush collar type? I come from a land of truck rear diffs, these are new to me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bcmaxx Posted August 22, 2015 Author Share Posted August 22, 2015 Every bolt thread and bushing sleeve got a coating of copaslip (like the dijon mustard of the neversieze world haha). I dont want to ever have to do that again on jackstands... and not in 39c heat either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
