1986 Honda Fourtrax TRX350 front left cv shaft repair

I could not find a thread showing the replacement of a CV shaft on the fourtrax that I obtained from my uncle that bought it brand-new. It had some clicking noises in the front end while turning the steering. Here are a few pictures as I put a new one in.

I did the pictures as I was putting it together but hope this sequence makes sense.

Good wrenching right there, these machines are really easy to work on. Good luck on your project.
