Re: Group Buy: CRW HD CV Joint Kit

I have received 4 sets so far. Having some slight dramas though. The splines on the standard CV inner race has been machined back so that it fits over the rear of the shaft. These don't have that. I originally thought there was an error in machining but Josh has told me this is how they come and that they are correct. Standard Inner Race  CRW Inner Race  Josh has told me the below: "Gotta really whack the race on there in the right direction and they fit. Your pics show it going on backwards. Will attach a pic of it on correctly. Pic of bar shows it had slid on all the way and where splines scratch oem bar.... but do need to whack it on good." He also attached this photo of the shaft with the result of forcing it on.  Now, I'm not really happy with this but I cant see it being too damaging to the longevity of the shaft or the CV. I don't want to screw everyone around though and ship them all back. I am going to try this and see how it goes. If you are unhappy with this, PM me and we will sort something out. I'm sorry in advance

I thought the inner was machined out to tell you which way it goes on - the angles of the race suit one direction. If his don't have the inner marked, how do we know which way they go on....
Be interested to measure them up and see where the difference is made in the design....

Nothing like that Tony. You just flick a coin.

There should be no need to bash the inner race on. Are you able to remove the inner race easily once it had been done?

Any updates on other packages arriving?

I will be fitting mine this weekend. Josh has assured me that no harm will come from doing this, and the CV's have a lifetime warranty too. I have received 3/5 parcels. It seems two have been delayed in Sydney. I will begin shipping them out as of Monday :)

Received mine today, they have been opened by customs, so that explains the delay in shipment :D

From my understanding, they do have markings (they are just not obvious, like "This side out"). You will notice a circular groove on the shaft/boot side.

Was there any direction from Josh as to which way they are to be fitted? In one of his replies he said that he would attach a pic of it fitted correctly.

Hi All,
I fitted mine up on the weekend. the passenger side shaft took a few gentle taps with a hammer to get on. the drivers side took a bit more force but still went on pretty well.
We did find that the gaskets are the wrong size, so if you can salvage your old ones without damaging them you can reuse them, or buy new ones for a couple of dollars from Toyota.
Shipping will begin today, I will PM people individually.
Cheers,
Eric

The OEM gasket P/N is: 43459-17010. They are around $5 each from Amayama. Which way did you end up putting the inner race on, Eric?
