Hey guy's, I bought a reconditioned drive shaft with new cv joints on them and the inner joint is so much more flexible than the outer, the outer is actually quite stiff to try and move sideway's. Does anyone know if this is normal? Also what's the size of the wheel nut that you have to take off to get to it, 30mm? Thanks for any help.

It's 30mm.

The inner and outter joints are totally different. The inner is a tripod joint with a slip joint so that it can slide in and out as the suspension travels. The outter is called a Repezza (sp?) joint, which has no slip fitting, but has a joint that can turn at extreme angles and keep the rotational speed the same.
