Agreed.. I used both McMark's and the Pelican article when doing mine. Each has good info and the right mix of pictures.

Might try antibiotics for that strep bolt. Sounds painful!

stripped CV bolt? be sure to clean those suckers out. existing grime inside those can limit the tools travel by 50%. me thinks that how a lot of those are stripped out. a 4" Ridgid pipe wrench works magic on 'em, too. pics, pics, pics
