  2. Apply caulking (arrows) using a suitable cross-cut chisel (approx. 5 mm wide), whereby the material must "flow" into the groove in the rear-axle shaft.

    IMPORTANT The caulking must be applied to the land at an offset of 120°. It must not be applied in the vicinity of the narrow ball raceway.

    The caulking must be carried out such that the hub of the inner constant velocity joint can no longer be slid along the rear axle shaft.
