Just when you get the thing running great... bam! CV joint comes off! Completely seperated from the trans output flange. I rolled it all the way home to just around the corner from my house. Shar helped me push it from there to the street in front of the driveway. Danny's due over in a few and together with help from my youngest son and Shar, we can get it up the driveway and onto the side of the house.
I got lucky in that the shaft just fell down on top of the HE and didn't do any damage. Pics later... |

At least you weren't under it. I've got parts, thanks for the offers. I have a set of Dr. Evil's drilled CV bolts around here somewhere too. I wsa planning to save those for the /6 though. Like I said, the joint separated form the trans output flange. It would appear that all of the bolts came loose. And I've never taken them off since I've owned the car. The holes don't appear to be stripped, but I haven't gotten a good look yet. I'll do that tomorrow. When I get under it... |
