its a few, i dont know how many...

about one of the only good things about our IFS is that when you break a cv, all I have to do is cut the other boot and pull the middle half shaft and i can drive it home again.

so i drove home...


im not near the parts list to start cutting stuff up yet...

they break really easily. locked and on 34s is a real big portion of it. the sad thing is that this one broke on a dirt hill climb...

when the shaft goes, the only thing really holding it trying to keep itfrom spinning is the plastic boot. so yes, they do make a mess like that...

Ouch. Well, Gil, when you do your SAS, I'll take some of your old stuff you don't need anymore. I need to replace my drivfer's side CV. And I'm gonna get some stocker t-bars so mine won't be cranked anymore.
