Will this CV Bolt Kit fit my Vanagon, and does it cover both sides?

This CV Bolt Kit is designed specifically for Vanagon models equipped with 930-style axles. Each kit contains the correct number of high-strength bolts to refit one CV joint, not both sides of your van. If you’re servicing both sides or all four joints, be sure to order the appropriate quantity. Always double-check your axle style before purchasing to ensure compatibility with the 930-type setup.

What parts and tools do I need for installation, and is this kit complete?

The kit includes all the bolts needed for one CV joint, so it’s ready to go out of the box. For installation, you’ll need a 12-point (triple-square) M8 socket, which is required for proper tightening as these are not standard hex bolts. Don’t forget to clean the threads and consider using thread locker for extra security. Everything you need for the CV joint itself is included, making this ideal even for first-time DIYers.

How tight should I torque the CV bolts, and do I need to retighten them?

For secure and reliable installation, torque your CV bolts to 33 ft-lb (45 Nm) as specified for 930 axles. It’s a good practice to recheck the torque after your first short drive, especially if you’re installing new CV joints or axles, to ensure nothing has loosened. Proper torque is crucial for both safety and longevity of your Vanagon’s drivetrain.
