12K Half Shaft rebuild (solid rotor)

[rcamacho]

I’m getting into the LR shaft to assess problems with the hub side joint. Referencing TM 9-2320-387-24-1 section 6-7 for ECV.

I’m not entirely clear on hub side joint disassembly. Any guidance appreciated.
Are cross/clips/roller cages available?

Pulled the shaft apart this afternoon. 2/3 rollers came off the cross inside the hub side joint. The cross and joint housing are a bit galled.

looking for a few shaft now or at least a donor inner joint.

Curious if anyone has cross reference the 12k joint parts to commercially available sub components. I saw a post for the 10k but not the 12K.

Noticed GKN is one of the suppliers for the small flange 12k shafts. Maybe I’ll look at their documentation…

Scored an aftermarket rear shaft from a local community member. The shaft was a bit odd with a small flange 10k size plunge joint hub side and a 12k hub side joint. Works fine. We’ll see how it holds up.
