For about 20% cheaper, ($104 with listmember discount), I have brand NEW German Lobro CV's complete with German boot kits, grease, and hardware - in other words, everything you need, brand new OEM, not rebuilt. This means you'll have to bolt on the CV's yourself (a simple but messy job), versus buying the rebuilt units that are already bolted to a used axle shaft. But you'll have new name-brand German CV's for _less_ than the price of the rebuilt ones (and without the hassle of a core deposit or exchange). - Ron Salmon The Bus Depot, Inc.
