Inner Cv Joints, Are They Replaceable?

Recommended Posts

pugpete1108

i removed my short driveshaft today in readyness for my vts box and i thought i would strip it out and take a look (as someone mentioned that could be the issue)

 

i found one of the bearings had no roller pins in it at all :) and one of the other ones had a few pins missing.

 

now i am guessing this is the cause of my engine wobbling under acceleration issue.?

 

it does seem a waste to just pay out for a new shaft when the inner cv joint is removable, question is are they replacable? and who would supply them?

 

could be an easy fix if so.

afraid it has to be complete shaft, missing needle rollers would indeed cause some wobble.
