Subject:Caution on Half Axle swap
From:John Frazier
Date:Fri, 21 Apr 2000 01:37:26 EDT

Hello to All, Before swapping rear half axles to extend CV wear it would be
well to measure their lengths. The axles on my 89 Westy Automatic are not the
same lengths. To get the same effect it would be necessary to remove all 4 CV
joints to change sides and leave the axles in their original places. Perhaps
this does not apply to Manual transmissions . Guess how I found out!
