my cv's are poked and need replacing, found some for 55 bucks for 1 kit which includes 1 cv, 1 boot blah blah, does that sound resonable, also anything to look out for when changing these? any help would be great

They the ones of trade me?? I put some on the missus's car seem to be pretty good. Have you E-mail'd revhead see what his prices are like??
Genuine's always better.

as long as you can do them yourself and wont be paying labour ontop, thats a good price for a cv and boot.

nothing special about doing them just don't strech your brakeline tooooo much i guess!!! i had to cut one off my ones off with a gas axe once coz it just wouldnt came off , i herd that the geunine cv joint kit came with the drive shaft (is that true??)

[RickGT]

yea kool thanks guys, ill email revhead an ask, dads a mechanic an i noe all the general rules an wat not, if i run into trouble ill just call the old man lol

I reccommend taking the whole shaft out when doing it. Its just a matter of 8 nuts on the inner cv and makes life alot easier if the outer cv is a bit stubborn.
