I may be replacing the clutch soon by taking the engine out for possible egr blanking, but my question here is :
Has anyone got some outer cv joints handy and could provide a sketch to include sizes, so I can make some dummy cv joints to hold the wheel bearing together please.
I am investigating a machine mart engine hoist/crane and will ask about that later, but have limited space/height where i intend to do the job. I have a joist strong enough to lift the engine from, but would need to allow the car to be lowered to its wheels when all the bits etc are off etc., so I can roll the car back and lower the engine to the deck. For that I either need dummy cv joints, or take off the shaft joints, or get some knackered cv joints to fit to keep the wheel bearings together.
Either dummy cv joints or knackered cv joints would be ideal and less hassle.
thanks
