Well after reading all threads i decided i need to know what parts i need.

Like others i had the clicking in the front wheel area when my manual hubs

are locked. The cv boot was ripped. Well i decided to ignore it because, well

didnt bother me. And because it is mostly a daily driver and i doesnt do that

when the hubs are free i said oh well. Anyways the other day in the desert it

got a little worse but nothing to serious. While it was fully turned it finally

broke the bearing or what i have read a cv joint, or something in there. I

have a repair manual and read threads but i want to know what you guys

think before i tear into it considering it is my rig to school. There are pics

below. I know ill have to take it apart to see the total damage but what

parts is it looking liek ill need? toyota 22-re pickup 1991 model

This is part of the piece that broke---


This is the view from the inside----


This is just the view from the back(i tore the rest of the boot off---

 

Ummm yeah - that's your CV joint. Basically, when the boot tears, your days are numbered. You will need to replace the entire CV joint assembly (also called a halfshaft)

Hopefully, you didn't screw up any wheel bearings/bushings from having play in the CV.

CV joint is easy to replace - there are several writeups on here how to do it. Mine was like $79 at Autozone (lifetime warranty) after the core charge.

 

Not bringing this topic back up, but I am replacing this part as we speak, and i dont want to start a new thread, any last tips. Ill probobly be askign question so dont you guys go to far.
