    more birfields - how to pull the splined drive out with bolt?

    So, I followed romer's fantastic tuitorial on the birf assy rebuild, and now that it's 99% done, the last step has me puzzled. It mentions after installing the final splined cap, to pull the drive shaft assy out with a guide bolt, to allow insertion of the o-ring. Well, we have the bolt...

    i have a dream -- that that the 200 series will follow the 80 series --
