No I did not. I heavily copper greased the front centering sleeve/bearing on the TC rear output shaft (the original had seized on there and took a week to remove). Replaced the guibo/flex disk and the center support bearing. I examined the CV and took it to the shop I used to work at. Owner manipulated it and said not to mess with it, looked good. So I threw it all back in and have had a noise free drive train ever since.
