Birf not swiveling after rebuild (1 Viewer)

[veeLC]

In rebuilding my 80 series birfs, the DS knuckle would not swivel after inserting the axle. Is there a certain orientation to set the inner and outer cages that would fix this?
Thanks

that ring what hold balls in goes only one way in so it is possible that you flipped it upside down

Cage is in backwards.

Thanks guys I’ll reverse it

I had this dilemma too, in addition to flipping the cage, you'll need to add grease (more than you think) into the birf to reduce the friction and allow everything to slide.

Reversed the caging, check
Packed with Grease, check
Check for swiveling, check

Mahalo nui guys!
