madcanuck Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 So, instead of having both axles and front swivels done by a shop, I thought I'd give it a go myself since everything else is in bits... I have all the seals, gaskets, one shot (x2), grease, upper and lower bearings, etc. Played with the shims, think I have it! Is it worth putting the rubber gaiters over the balls Do the mating flanges require a blue hylomar jointing compound when assembling the axles? Any tips before I do tighten everything down would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Tracy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Henson Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 This thread is rebuilding the entire front hub/swivel housing on a 110 with the early Railko bush. The only difference is that the later 90/110's changed to a top swivel bearing - the same as at the bottom. Otherwise the job is pretty-much the same. http://forums.lr4x4.com/index.php?showtopic=7546 Les. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
