My axle broke tonight - LH - 02-28-2013
Yup..........I knew the boot was ripped and that the knuckle would get contaminated with dirt so, on the way home tonight it broke 3 miles from my house. It was my number 3 car so in the driveway it goes and now I gotta use my truck till I can fix it, I'm just glad it was'nt on the highway. A 1999 Stratus with 80,000 miles on it.
Its in the driveway now after some finagling.

I'm sorry I missed Fact or Crap, I like that game. last week I worked late. Times are tough.

At least you have something that can be fixed LH. My truck is gone.
I can't find a replacement of equal merit with the money they're giving me AND I have to sue the mechanic for what I had to pay for a clutch for no good reason.

I only said it because you didn't send me any PM's while we were playing.

Well......at least CV shaft replacements are only between $100 and $200 and pretty easy to do. It takes longer to pull the wheel and brake assembly off than it does to do the shaft.
