[diesel_mercedes] W123 Drive Axle Replacement

 



Thanx Rob ;

That's how I've done it, I'm still dragging my feet on this, fooling with still more reddish crap in my water jacket and now I have a right front wheel bearing beginning to hum so I'll have to do that first .

These jobs are better & easier done by under 50 year olds, 50 was a while back for me before I was crippled (whine) .

I hope the Chinese axles last a long time for you .

I installed 2- rebuilt axles- (Cardone 60-9022) today.

Not too hard to do, beyond crawling & wrenching under the car. Now just
waiting for the sealant to cure, then add gear oil tomorrow.

Hopefully, all my noises and vibration are sorted out. I'll report back
later.

I found this forum thread which summed up the procedure:
