Subject: CV joint gasket question

Greetings all,

I am in the process of cleaning and relubing the CV joints in the 84
Westy that my wife and I own.  Is there supposed to be a gasket between
the CV joint and the flanges that it bolts into?  The VW parts list that
I looked at showed one, but they had no other references to it in the
listings.

TIA,
Howard

No gasket is necessary for that CV joint.  Properly tightened, no grease will leak away.
