    Steering swivel swap - Tutorial..?

    Anyone done this? Couldnt see anything in the search.

    Just got all these bits today. Would a tutorial in the same vein as the head ones be of any use, showing the removal, refitting and setting up, or just a waste of camera batteries!



    Still trying to decide whether I should wait for some upgraded CV's too......

    Good idea Pete,

    If yours has TC etc, then the part about setting the top pin preload is really important and well worth tutorialing about

    In those parts, did you get the top bushes, thrust bearings, washers etc also?
    And they look like new swivel balls and stub axles too...going all out I see!

    Morning Justin,

    Mine doesn't have ABS / TC (un) fortunatley. That was l taken care of with the air lockers

    I think I have everything needed. Even a set of track rod ends (only 1 pictured)

    One of my swivels has a groove worn where the seal sits

    Rgds
    Pete.

    one tip and its only a small one is to mod the brake line bracket so that the caliper can be removed without disconnecting the brake line, would have been one less job when had to pull my swivel off in the bush

    Pete,

    So the lack of ABS etc means you have been given (hopefully)4 swivel bearings and a pair of NON ABS swivel balls. There IS a difference
