I'm going through the front axle on my WDX, does anyone have any hints, tricks, or tips, to this process. I have a shop manual, but have never done this before on any rig. Before I started pulling it apart, I noticed a considerable amount of play where the steering knuckle bolts around the axle housing, but only on the left side(where the drag link hooks to). What might cause this? Why not on the right? Will shimming the housing(where the grease fitting is) tighten it up? I would rather not split the knuckle, But I cant tell if it has to be done for the rebuild anyway? HELP!
