Axle Shaft Assembly: Service Precautions

HALF SHAFT



CAUTION:
Never grasp half shaft assembly by the boots. This may cause the boot to pucker or crease and reduce the service life of the boot.

Avoid over flexing or stroking the C/V joints when handling the half shaft.

Half shafts exposed to battery acid, transmission fluid, brake fluid, differential fluid or gasoline may cause the boots to deteriorate.
