    Reman cv axle?

    My old man's land cruiser is in need of new cv axles but when he called the dealership they said they don't make them anymore? Only remanned ones. Anyone have experience with them? Does anyone know where we can order them? Reputable aftermarket brands? Thanks for any suggestions or help.

    Just received my new CVs. Is this dent/ wrinkle/ … normal?!? It’s on both axles, no visible external damage on package, so I guess it is?

    See video below. 2004 LX470 w/ 250k miles. I'm trying to figure out my drivetrain clunk issue. The truck had the CV axles replaced by the dealer within the last couple of years, and I recently replaced the front diff bushings. This clunk is present both in the R-N-D shift and on in decel/accel...

    CV Axle Repair/Replacement Opinions - New OEMs vs. CVJ Moderate lift

    Hi, I just found out last night while doing an oil change that one of my inner cv boots is cracked, and has spit out a lot of cv grease. It's a 2005 GX470 with 150k miles. At 140k it had a lift done. That explains the boot issue I'm dealing with.. To keep it brief, I'm debating between buying...

    Recommended aftermarket front axles

    Hey all, well the time has come to replace my front CVs, shortly after the install of the Dobbinson lift both boots ripped. I will say I’m not totally contributing it to the lift as they look relatively worn, but it certainly is suspicious. For reference I installed the 2.5 with control arms...

    CV Axle Disconnect and Best Purchasing Options (CVJ, Reman, new OEM)

    Hi y'all, Figured I'd share some lessons learned on disconnecting the CV axle "the easy way" and re-visit some previously discussed CV stuff. I was leaking gear oil out of the passenger side diff, so I went in to replace the diff seal. I followed the advice of "chowcares" on YouTube in the...

    CV Axle Snap Ring size? How do I know which to buy?

    Sorry if this has been covered elsewhere, I am quite a noob at searching on this site. I figured that there isn't (or hopefully there shouldn't be) a "guess, check, and revise," method for figuring out which snap ring fits on a CV Axle. The time has come to replace the CV Axle with a new OEM one...

    Flange stuck

    I was working on installing new CVs and while installing the flange, it was not going on smoothly, so against my better judgement I decided to tap it on with a rubber mallet to get it to sink the rest of the way, it started to go then stopped part way and began pushing the CV out, I gripped the...

    Full diagnosis is in on my 470...I’ve got some fun projects in my future.

    I recently took my LX in for a diagnostic. I got a good deal on it because of the high mileage, the previous owners took care of the engine and timing belt but everything else needs some love. Another positive is that there is zero rust underneath. -steering rack -outer tie rodx2 -upper ball...
