A noob question: how do you do this sir/s? a photo or illustration will be very helpful. ThanksRCDAD said:Another trick that helps it to insert a piece of fuel line inside the cups. This helps to keep the dogbone centered. Ear plugs also do the trick.
Just disconnect the upper suspension link remove the dogbone or CVD and insert a piece into the drive cup.BRDJ said:A noob question: how do you do this sir/s? a photo or illustration will be very helpful. Thanks

I don't know that tempering is a good idea.BRDJ said:Noted, RCDAD... Thanks.Also, can I use this to temper the diff cups?
Heating up the cups actually de-tempers them. They become a bit softer and that's why the don't snap as easy. In theory they should wear out faster. I don't notice any premature wear though. I can say they don't snap as often.Phill said:I don't know that tempering is a good idea.Hardness usual equals brittle and these things have to take a fair amount of twisting forces
