jd00d Posted January 29, 2020 Report Share Posted January 29, 2020 Hi. New member . Just wondering if anyone else has had the CV connection on the front of the driveshaft need replacing. I know other vehicles have that part for replacement in a rebuild kit like Jeep's and Dodge trucks. Would anyone happen to know if there is one that I can find that is equivalent since the whole new drive shaft will run 500-900 dollars. Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jd00d Posted January 30, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2020 I was referring to the rear drive shaft or drive line for awd. At the head of the driveline there is a CV joint that connects, I assume to a transfer case? On my drive shaft the rubber sleeve for this joint in torn and the bearing is wearing it has some wiggle . I just think it's ridiculous to have to purchase a whole new drive shaft when the ends can be replaced so easily. That's why I was asking if anyone has heard of or know of a compatible replacement for the CV joint on the shaft. It just seems dumb to have to replace the whole thing instead of just fixing a small part. I've spent many hours trying to find anything on the web about it. But all I can find is to replace the whole driveshaft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
