Photo DIY- Flex Discs & Center Support Bearing Overhaul

Since I have noticed slightly 'firm' Shifting lately, and mile Harshness during Acceleration/Deceleration... I thought I would change out the Old, HARD, Rubber bits.

Thank goodness I DID... On VISUAL Inspection, the Cracks looked small, and FINE in size. No BRIDGING Cracks between the webs. After 18 Years and 185,000 miles, they were due!

THEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE Most Important thing to remember is MARKING THE ENTIRE SHAFT/DISC/FLANGE(Front & Rear)/DIFFERTENTIAL-TRANSMISSION-BODIES Orientation!!

These Shafts are Balanced as a Whole, it is it 100% Imperative the ENTIRE Complex gets put back together AS IT DID IN THE FACTORY.


I must say, After the repair? The car shifts better, and is much Smoother at highway speeds. I guess the Rubber gets hard after soooo many years!
