Help SSS velocity joint problem .

Postby streetkyng3000 » March 24th, 2010, 9:44 pm

I lowered my U14 SSS myself today looks real sweet but when I rolled out my left axle was making a lot of noise so I
changed the outer joint but the noise still there . Could anyone advise on how to solve this problem .

Questions:

1. how did you lower it?

2. how are you sure it's the axle? (and not the tyre touching the fender)

If you lowered the car drastically, the axles will now be at an angle, so more than likely, it's the inner cup that's making the noise.

Outer CV joints are designed for angular rotation, the inner joints are not!
When you lower your car, the tripod is repositioned further into the inner cup, so when you lock over your steering, the tripod knocks inside the cup.

So either raise the car some, or get shorter axles.
Capiche?
