Hyundai 49609-3KA10 Boot Kit-Front Axle Wheel Side RH

The basic cleaning and checking procedure is the same for all joints. 1. Remove the driveaxle (see Section 9). 2. Mount the driveaxle in a vise with wood lined jaws to prevent damage. Check for excessive play and smooth operation of each CV joint. If a boot is torn, disassemble, clean, and inspect for damage. 3. Use a small screwdriver to pry the retaining tabs of the clamps up to loosen them. 4. Carefully pry up the edge of the outer boot and push it away from the CV joint. Remove the inner CV joint boot and slide the housing off the joint. 5. Mark the tripod and axleshaft for proper reassembly. 6. Remove the tripod joint snap-ring with snap-ring pliers. 7. Use a hammer and brass punch to drive the tripod joint from the driveaxle. 8. If not already done, remove both boots. Do NOT disassemble the outboard CV joint.
