after killing a rear cv I went searching and got 2 complete rear axles and 2 bearings for 159 shipped.I ordered them on Tuesday and they were sitting on my step Friday.The axles look to be of nice quality and fit perfectly.The bearings also look to be of good quality.They also come with a 1 year warranty which of course does not cover boots.Supposed to riding tommorrow and see if they perform.

 

Good price. Saw them on ebay also. Hope they give you good service.

 

I now have a spare stocker I took off as I decided to put both new ones in.

 

I did notice today when washing her up that the boots are "scrunched" and dont recall them being that way b4 install.will this cause the boots to fail?

 

On "scrunched boots" you may have to remove one clamp and wiggle the boot around so it can pop up correctly. Sometimes a little low pressure from an air gun can pop these out also. Hated when that happened. Boots need to be on correctly or the ribs can wear against another rib and tear.

 

Thanks OPT! how does this happen they were not like that before install

 

Clamps not fully tightened allowing the boot to turn or a little grease on the shaft or cv joint during factory assembly that can allow a boot to twist and scrunch up when you go to install it.

 

Think I will try and twist them around a little with some pliers.Thanks again OPT
