Planning on replacing drive axles on my 2000 WS. Are there any pitfalls that I should be aware of? Have thoroughly studied the Haynes manual and seems fairly straight forward. I have ordered the drive axles from rockauto (p/n 662091 & 662005), apparently they are complete (old out, new in). Not sure of new circlips...do they usually come with a new/rebuild unit? Have also ordered new axle nuts and pinch bolts for each side.
Am I missing anything? As always sounds entirely too easy from reading manual, surely there is something that's going to be a PITA.
If you've seen any of my previous requests for help, you'lll recognize that I'm posted over in merry 'ol England....and they don't exactly have a pep boys or autozone on every corner.... so I have to mail order EVERYTHING and need to make sure that I have everything before I start ripping the front end apart and realize that I'm missing a lil bolt or nut that I'd normally be able to pop around the corner and buy.
"Cheers" in advance for your assistance
