Hi all.

Got new swivels , can I change them without taking hub and bearings apart . As I have td5. And they need torquing up. So if can do from the back would be much easier.?????

Thanks . Simon.

Not too sure on a td5. But on a tdi you under the drive flange circlip and take the top swivel pin out and you can ease it off. Leaving the cv and half shaft in the axle

Cheers. The rest of hub is same I think , just the bearings that are a pain, so think should be able to undo swivel seal ring and pins then should just come off. my swivels don't hold grease anymore so really gotta do em, got pair from paddock( britpart I know but can't moan the price diff is amazing) .??

I haven't had any problem with them and that's what I've used before.
