Notice : Do not over extend the axle joints. When either

can result in separation of internal components and pos-
sible joint failure. Use drive axle joint seal protectors when-
ever performing service on or near the drive axles. Failure
to do so can cause internal joint or seal damage and result
in possible joint failure.
