What Tools Are Required for Replacing the Outer CV Joint and Seal on Buick LeSabre?

The replacement operation of the Wheel Drive Shaft Outer Joint and Seal requires Drive Axle Seal Clamp Pliers (J 35910) and Drive Axle Swage Ring Clamp (J 41048) and Snap Ring Pliers (J 8059). Three tools required for the job include Drive Axle Seal Clamp Pliers (J 35910), Drive Axle Swage Ring Clamp (J 41048), and Snap Ring Pliers (J 8059). Start by cutting off the large seal retaining clamp on the CV joint with a side cutter until you discard it before you remove the small retaining clamp from the halfshaft bar. Caretaker away the outboard seal from the CV joint outer race while sliding it away from the joint. Remove the grease from the CV joint inner race and use Snap Ring Pliers (J 8059) with spread function to deactivate the race retaining ring ears for CV joint assembly extraction. Place the bar's seal on a bench and lightly strike the CV joint cage to extract chrome alloy balls until all have been removed. Position both cage and inner race components at right angles to the outer race so the windows match up perfectly with the lands. After removing both components you must align the inner race with the cage window openings before pivoting it into position. Use cleaning solvent to cleanse CV joint assemblies and CV joint cage together with balls until all remnants of old grease and contaminants disappear along with complete drying of all components. Assembly begins with the placement of the new swage ring onto the small end of the joint seal followed by joint seal and halfshaft bar slide. The Drive Axle Swage Ring Clamp (J 41048) inserted into a vise positions the assembly without putting the seal at risk. Start by tightening the clamp bolts pushed and pulled alternately until the clamp grips properly then position the components correctly in the center to perform a 180-degree bolt rotation until their full tightness appears. The ball grooves on both inner and outer races need a thin coat of grease before putting the inner race into the cage at a right angle. Line up the cage together with the inner race toward the outer race while placing the retaining ring side of the inner race toward the halfshaft bar. Place chrome balls into the CV joint while adding grease until it reaches the proper thickness and outboard seal positioning looks correct. As the last step slide the large diameter outboard seal onto the CV joint outer race then crimp the seal retaining clamp while using Drive Axle Seal Clamp Pliers (J 35910) and implementing a breaker bar and torque wrench to produce a final clamp tightness of 176 Nm (130 ft. lbs.) and verify the clamp ear gap before making any required adjustments.
