I highly recommend rebuilding the halfshafts with new boots and fresh grease. I bought my rebuild kits from pelicanparts and they were fairly inexpensive. Figure these halfshafts are coming off of a really old car and they probably have dry/cracked cv boots and nasty old grease. Whatever you do, DO NOT BUY AFTERMARKET HALFSHAFTS from your local auto parts store or anywhere else for that matter. They're garbage. Only use Genuine BMW halfshafts. The boot kits come with crimp clamps which require a special set of crimp clamp pliers. Do not use hose clamps or zip ties. Here's how I rebuilt mine: http://www.318ti.org/forum/showpost....&postcount=433 Note that I reassembled them incorectly the first time, so I had to take them apart and reasseble them again: http://i198.photobucket.com/albums/a...ti/correct.jpg http://i198.photobucket.com/albums/a.../incorrect.jpg |
