CV JOINT
#1
![Default](/forum/images/icons/icon1.gif)
Hello,
I was putting new tires (Michelin Harmony's) on my 1998T5. The tire guys said I needed a new CV joint. I looked, and sure enough the boot cover is gone, and it looks like grease is bleeding out. I plan on fixing this ASAP, but first I have a few questions-
1. When replacing CV joints it looks likeit is better to replace the whole axle assembly.
2. Should I replace both CV joints at thesame time?
3. Can I do this myself - (with no experience and limited knowledge)
4. What other parts may need/be easy toreplace when having the CV joints replaced.
Thank you
