Note this part requires heating to fit (see workshop manual for instructions)
- Removing the old sleeve from the axle. We heat the sleeve with the gas bottle unit cherry red and it will drop off.
- Then allow the half to cool and clean the journal where the sleeve fits with emery cloth.
- Fitting the new sleeve you need to heat to a dark straw colour uniformly, a tip we use is to place the sleeve on steel plate and heat the plate with gas bottle on the underside (this should git a more uniform heat distribution all over the new sleeve).
- Stand the half shaft on the floor and drop the heated over the shaft, it should fall in to place and then cool and shrink to the shaft.
