Who will rebuild CV joints in Calgary?
« on: September 13, 2011, 05:19:35 PM »
DSI will not
Pats Driveline will not
Danco will not
Who will?
Nissan and it will be brought in, the cv/axle, not the car.
Thanks

pats rebuilt your CV drive shaft not CV axle ..      

what needs to be done .. CV shafts are pretty simple you probably can buy the parts at auto value and do it your self .. its just a rubber boot and 3 rollers that spin on a spider and a few snap rings  in the assembly

google it im sure someone out there has a whole write up on it

I assumed the cv joint was on the driveshaft , now that I'm onboard, can't you buy a new shaft complete with the cv? If I remember from college they aren't too expensive.

you could but NO ONE has a cross reference for the CV joint. Its my wifes skyline. i have tried every internet resource and no one has it. i will pull it out, count the splines inner and outer and check the length at full compression. And hope Napa has the part.

How crazy is that? i have actually been speaking with Joe. He got me the boots which i picked up today from him and i will bring him the joint in the a.m. to see if we can do anything. i can get a new one for $800! Gulp.

Ya it's petty sweet.   To bad he doesn't drive it like it was built

That car puts down serious HP.  But I think he's worried abou hurting it
