Well, they showed up Friday, so I went ahead and knocked them out today. Looking back, it wasn't so bad, in terms of parts removed. But christ alive I'm too old to be slinging 40lbs of metal around! Took me about 4 hrs total.
Interestingly, the CVs did not completely fix the clunk, so I guess the search continues. I've replaced the front diff bushings, axle hub flanges, and now CVs, and still get a bit of clunk. The CVs did however make a HUGE difference, and I had a boot that was torn anyway, so I'm very much glad I've done it. Thanks for the help pushing me over the line to tackle it! Couple of pics below of the new and old side by side, and the empty hole on the driver's side.
