You axle seal's leaking into the swivel hub, you'll need swivel hub kit..

there a bit of a bitch to do. there might be a trick to it but for me putting the rubber seal on, holding it there while aligning the felt seal and the two metal retainers was quite painful.

1Hr 25 per side is my best effort. That includes cleaning parts, packing bearings by hand, and repacking CV joint. Also sealing all surfaces together with gasket goo :D

Felts are easy once you get the knack :wink:

There is a good wright up in here on doing them..

Not to hard to do, if you can do a wheel bearing you should be able to do that..

taking it apart really isn't a problem, getting stuff together is a lot harder to get right ;) but you should be fine with this one, its not too difficult just fiddely

I don't know how many times i've done this, but i can pull it apart and get it back together, but the disk brake now hits the caliper holder.... me the retard :lol:


also, it takes me 30mins to pack and finish front wheel bearings 8)

just wondering what's an average price you'd pay for a swivel front hub kit, and where would you get it from
Thanks
