Abstract

See full text

A constant velocity joint assembly includes an outer joint member and an inner joint member. A first shaft is coupled to the inner joint member for articulated movement with the inner joint member relative to the outer joint member. A boot is coupled to the first shaft and the outer joint member to seal the constant velocity joint assembly. An insert is secured to and supported within the boot adjacent to and in abutting engagement with an axial end of the outer joint member. The insert limits movement of the first shaft to within a pre-determined range of articulation to prevent disengagement and/or disassembly of the inner joint member relative to the outer joint member.
