My inner CV joints are definitely shot and will be replaced. I was pleasantly surprised to find much less wear on the outers. They have the usual polish where the bearings ride. Each joint has a couple spots where a very small groove is barely detectable by running a finger along the channel. Here are pics of the worst spots of each joint.
  What say ye? Can I just move these to the transmission end to reverse the side of the channel where the most wear occurs and keep using them? On a related note, anyone have tips on pulling a roll pin out of a stub axle? |
