When I had pulled my trans and engine in the assdragger six months ago for the second gear
repair, the outboard boot(s) looked fine...the inboard CVs had plenty of
grease. I should have pulled the splines off and looked inside. It was
dry...very dry but there no evidence of thrown grease anywhere....odd that.

I slapped in a known good set of CVs and axles....no more clunk....

I guess I'll service this one....see if the balls and cage are savable and
then pull the other side....since I have an LSD I would assume the other may
be in the same condition or close to it.

So the moral of the story....do the inspections and you won't have to do it later......since the 914 CVs are NLA....you might want to save as many as you can.

BTW....My 911 only has 88K original miles....but 35% more HP......imagine what a 914 CV and a V8 would look like.
