just change the whole driveshaft. it's cheaper and easier. the worst that can happen is they will pop off braking the lower balljoints, but that is a rare occurence

No, he's serious. I priced it from the dealer and parts + labor was about the same for replacing the halfaxle+cv as doing just the cv.
I don't see any reason to get them fixed though - worst case is that something snaps and you have to push your baby home on 3 wheels. |
