he means grind a flat in the middle of the pin where the grub screw hits it.
Could also try a little silicone seal over the tips of the pin after it is in.

I've seen guys put a small piece of heat shrink tubing over the cvd cup, and that way even of the set screw comes loose the pin stays in.

Is this on a B4.1 ? does anybody just use the clips instead of using the grub screws to keep the pin in ?

On the 4.1 driveshafts don't they have the clip that surrounds the pin?
(BTW you should still use the grub screw as well as the clip) If no clip then use the heatshrink like Rob suggested. I've had that on my B4 for a couple of years and haven't lost a pin so far! |
