Yes, the front outer Syncro cv joint is held onto the half shaft with a snap ring.

I would add the Syncro yahoo group to your email groups.
Tons of info on there.

Subject: axle connected to hub bone?

HI, I hope I am posting this right.

I am replacing the strut/spring on my 91 Westy Syncro. When I removed
the top ball joint (two bolts) and moved rotor/brake assemble off to
the side I noticed that the axle came out of the hub. Is this suppose
to happen or it suppose to held to the hub the a snap ring?

Thanks in advance, David
