    Be prepared this can be tricky

    "Empi 80-3619 100% New Constant Velocity Premium Complete CV Half Shaft Drive Axle Assembly"
    $59.95
    In Stock
    Sold by: RWI America, Inc.

    I just had to replace one CV Joint. I ordered from Amazon they had the wrong one listed for the VX. So I ordered from Autozone and they listed the wrong one. Then thanks to a member here I got the right part number went to Amazon again and ordered the one listed above and it worked. If you want you can google RWI America and call them directly. They are real nice. After explaining my situation they sent my order out same day and it arrived quicker than it would have and at no charge.

    There's dozens of posts about both the CVs and the loud bang in the rear.

    Do a search and you'll find a ton of info about both.

    Search:
    CV joints

    And do a search on:
    ~ slamming
    ~ jarring
    ~ cutting rear bump stops in half
    ~ expansion joints

    Many of us have cut our rear bump stops in half and improved the slamming issue quite a bit. There's lots of pics too of the rear stops.


    OK....here's a head start.....
