They aren't that bad. Not worth the money to pay a mechanic to do it IMO. I have switched my CV in just over an hour. Messy but feasible.
Probably not and since I havent heard any tell tale 'clicking' while turning Im assuming the joints themselves are still in good condition.

Yeah my passenger side required a torch and about an hour last time I needed it out lol. It's not the fact that it's too difficult, I just get mad sketched out when I'm tugging/banging on my car when it's on jack stands

Show was fun. Forgot how much Portland sucks though lolol, plus it poured the last day I was there, and I didn't bring pants, so I was ready to leave to say the least lol

Didn't we meet somebody at Laguna who had access to a lift? I've been spoiled to have access to one
Lol. I had double and triple lines of protection against the car rolling or the jacks falling yesterday.

Dont know who would of had a lift...there wasnt anyone there that hadnt been at a previous meet. :unsure:

Glad to hear you got the fronts done! Cv boots sucks especially if your not working on a lift.
I would think the passenger side axle would be a bigger bitch than the driver side. Maybe Ill fork up the money and have the indy I usually go to do it.

How was the IPD show?

CF'd the centerconsol since the wood had started cracking off.
Nicely done!

Did the fronts today. :) Found that both outer CV's are leaking grease. :huh: :( Also decided to finally install the ipd endlinks I've had sitting around since 2009 :lol:
