well? how much have you paid for cv?



i got this for 80 bucks

 

i wanna know how much it is for just the outer boots.....or all the boots, however it comes. i think that price is about right for the axle

 

I got one for $75 (plus tax) from Checker, WITH lifetime free replacement. I already broke one, and they replaced it for freeeee

Not that I mean to brag or anything...

 

hey lee!

i may have to get you to order me up a couple, that price is killer! i have relatives in the boston area so a road trip to p/u the cv shafts would do double duty.

I am paying $65 with a core charge of course.... that was for the drivers side, I'm not sure if they are priced identically...

 

they are the same, talked with the stealer the other day. i broke the pass side outer joint wheeling last weekend and have been scouting around for replacemens. ill be rebuilding the drivers side as a trail spare and replacing both shafts. going to be a bit of work involved as im planning on swapping out the bushings for bearings at the same time.

what brand of shafts are they? thats a pretty good price and michigan is a lot closer than boston! sorry lee!

lee, did your CV break?

 

oh yeah, the outer pass joint is toast! boot is torn up pretty good also. a couple of the members of the club i belong to are offering their help when it comes to tearing into this job.

Try www.rockauto.com for your automotive needs.

I think that a CV from them is like $60 or less.

 

i paid $70 at AutoZone, and it has a life time warrenty too... free CV for me from now on...

 

www.rockauto.com still has you beat by $10 and I think that they've got a warrantee, too.

 

nope, just trail carnage insurance.

yea the 80 bucks is actually 130. you bring in your broken cv at any time, they give you 50 bucks back.

this place guarantees all their parts and theyre a great team of guys.

 

Lee is all about wheeling now.. bon voyage~! only thing i worry about is your color...black is going to be hard to hide scratches and pinstripes from wheeling..

 

I get mine for 40.00 with lifetime from axles plus in spartanburg, sc 864-621-4573

 

i try

 

Lee,
What's the part number for your CV assembly and anyway of getting around core charges? Thanks.

 

no, the core charges are required.. tried to get them to go around it myself, they said in some cases, and for certain parts they do that.. but not that cv.

i might have that PN in my car, ill get it at lunch and post it up if i do.

 

For your older ifs the boot kit from toyota (trdparts4u.com) is about $25 and it will fix both boots. I'd assume the price for the 3rd gens is about the same.

 

anybody know where we can buy a cv with the boot that has a little more play/flex to it? I cant afford this anymore. my boot have torn one two many times. Sorry to throw out my own question but I didnt want to start a whole new thread. Thanks!

 

Don't think it's likely you can get a CV axles with a greater working angle, unless maybe some hardcore racing part. There's a limit to what the design can take (look how far they flex when you turn all the way.)

I bought lifetime replacements (axles with boots already lubed and ready to bolt in) at Carquest for $66 each. The lifetime replacement even covers just the boots.
