very good. so ...........when transferring shafts from one side to the other, to accomplish the desired affect of having the cv joints drive 'the other way,' is the shaft just moved over and kept the same end-for-end, or is it moved over AND flipped end for end ? and on an automatic, you'd have to flip the cv's on the shaft of course, as the axle lengths are different. ----- Original Message ----- From: "David Beierl" <dbeierl@attglobal.net> To: "Scott Daniel - Turbovans" <scottdaniel@TURBOVANS.COM> Cc: <vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM> Sent: Sunday, August 16, 2009 2:58 PM Subject: Re: Regreasing my CV's.
