1998 Ford Ranger 4WD CV axle retaining clips
I am in the process of replacing lower ball joints on my 1998 Ford Ranger XLT 4WD. During removal of the right
side hub from the CV axle, I broke the plastic retaining clip and sprung the spiral clip -- I have been checking
with my local auto parts stores and online to locate replacement clips but all are showing either a retaining bolt
or a washer and nut. Does anyone know if these clips are available or not ? An appropriate exploded view of
this axle would also be helpful -- the plastic clip is "stepped" and I am not sure which way the clip is installed IF
I am able to locate a replacement. Thanks !
