Cv outer joint knocking..


Recommended Posts

Ok so my lowering plans have had to go on hold as I took my car to my friends garage to get things checked underneath and as he said a few weeks ago that with the weight of the wheels I.e car up on a lift when ur turn the wheel front to back as in forward and reverse by hand it knocks at what he sais is the outer cv joint..

I've had a price off tcb of £85 delivered for both sides thats for the full kit of joints, boots, grease and clips..the price wud be higher but Alex I think it was gave me some discount.

They are 3sfe specific but is this a good price or quite high? (no offence intended if anyone from tcb reads this)

Sounds alright to me,TCB usually supply good parts and are very knowledgeable;just ordered some more bits myself today from them,use them a lot.you can get odd bits off eBay but you have to make sure that theyre the exact right parts,and a lot of them are cheaply made hence cheaper price.

I will get these tho but can someone confirm that whilst holding the wheel with the car on a lift shud there be any turning motion forward and backwards with a loose clunk noise?

Also if u say cheap is sometimes not good then does that mean that the link below is too cheap?

Sorry link at the top now.
