Accessing CV Driveline Joints

Refer to Figure 5-12 on page 52:
There are two ways the constant velocity driveline joints
shown in Figure 5-12 can be accessed for lubrication.
One is through holes in the driveline shield and the other
is to slide the shields back to expose the grease zerks.
Lubrication Through Access Holes
1. Refer to Figure 5-13: Rotate driveline shield until
holes in shield align with grease zerks in CV joint.
2. Apply proper amount and type of lubrication. Refer to
"CV Main Driveline Joints" on page 52 for
