Time for our annual (or is it semiannual?) rehash of CV joint axle
swapping.

You must swap the axle from one side of the tranny to the other to even
out the internal wear of the CVs. The direction of rotation of a joint
is not relevent. The direction of the twisting forces acting on the
inner part of the CV versus the outer part is what counts. When you
reverse the direction of the twisting force you change the wear area to
a different spot.
