anyone know what kind of costs i'm looking into replacing my cv joints. at least i think it's my cv joints, when i make corners, ESPECIALLY left corners, it's just an INSANELY loud clicking noise, but only if i apply gas, if i turn and just let my car roll, then there's no noise, but when there's gas, it's very embarrassing, lol. but yeah i don't really have a lot of money, so would i be alright with just fixing the one for now? and how much will it cost?

Try to get a lifetime warranty on everything, I had to replace a "rebuilt" axle 3 times in 18 months, found out most of the cheaper rebuilts are just dropping new balls into the worn axle assemblies, adding grease and new boots, they dont last. If I do it again, I'll get new joints and put them on my axles or get a NEW aftermarket axle assembly, the new aftermarket ones are not that much more expensive, after the 3rd time I made them get me a new aftermarket assembly and paid about $50 more. (and with all the practice, I could change it in about 45 minutes:)
And the clicking IS most likely worn races and/or balls in the cv joints, no way to tell just looking at it. more info: http://www.raxles.com/default.aspx This post has been edited by 97GTinKC: Mar 25, 2005 - 12:36 PM |
