Subject:      Syncro-Tech. front axle Question



     I am putting together the front end to my Syncro and late
     Sat. night I looked at the Bentley manual,.. I'm not sure
     why at this point .... but found it to state somthing I didn't expect.


     When installing the outer front CV joint into the wheel
     hub Bentley wants the splines to be lock compounded to the 
     hub! Bentley manual state "apply locking compound D6 around
     splines of outer CV joint in a bead approx. 6 mm (1/4 in) 
     wide".  My hubs had not been lock compounded in, the last time
     it was removed. I am wandering if this is nessasary? I plain
     more work in a year or so. This would make removal, real work.
     My Manual is a 1987 edition. Maybe this was removed from newer
     versions?   Anyone have throughts on this?
