What to torque it to?, 6 hexhead inner cv bolts Options

[6gsillyca]

EDIT:

Can someone please tell me what the 6 hexhead bolts should be torqued to? My manual lists:

hub nut - 137 ft-lbs
driveaxle inner cv joint-to-differential side gear shaft flange - 27 ft-lbs
right driveaxle centre bearing bracket bolts - 47

None of these seem correct, but since my axles are *non-stock* I'm not sure what the technical part term would be for them.

END EDIT




I need to replace my outer cv boot. I was looking into getting a new axle shaft, because I have read it is easier to RnR the whole axle rather than individual parts (axle, cv joint, cv boot etc). Then you also shouldn't need to worry about any damage to your joint because of the craked boot.

I need to know what parts to order though. Cv boot is on the front pass wheel. Would the axle half come with both inners and outers, and then would I need to RnR the inner with the e153 inner from my current set-up?

Would someone be able to explain what the inner and outer axles are, and how/where the inner attaches to the outer?

Here is a link to my thread in another sextion, but I thought the boosted guys might know the e153/st185 axles a bit better.

Yes, there are ABS and non-ABS alltrac axles.

100% correct.
Same goes for the Camry axles.
However, I don't know if you can even find non ABS axles [doesn't matter directly to you, just for general FYI].
ABS axles will work fine on a non ABS car, so it's cheaper to just make one type.

If you get a whole axle it should already have the inner joint greased, but I guess some companies might not do that, all depends who you go through.

You will need a gasket for the joint however [unless the hybrid joints don't use one, but I would guess they do, or else you'll be leaking grease], it's a cork gasket that is sticky on one side, order it for an Alltrac axle.

Also just for general info, ithe pre and post revision Alltracs [90/91 vs 92/93] have DIFFERENT axles, and the drivers and passengers is different also.
The axles are interchangeable, the only difference is the groove for the outer boot on the outer joint.
A post revision boot wont' fit on a pre revision joint, but a pre revision boot will fit on a post revision joint IIRC.

The passenger side axle has a rubber vibration dampener on it, the drivers side doesn't have this.
Aftermarket axles might not have this distinction.
Either axle will bolt to either side, it just effects the Alltrac as far as smoothness, it shouldn't effect FWD. FWD has a longer pass side, while the Alltrac doesn't.
