I would like to thank those who gave me tips on how to best proceed with
replacing/rebooting my front axles on my syncro. It went surprisingly easy!
I would not hesitate to do this job if you have reservations about it.
Best of all, Ken Willford at Vanagain once again came through on parts! I
called him up at 5pm on a tuesday as he was closing down. He placed my
order, and Wed afternoon, my parts were here!!!!
That's hard/impossible to beat. Not only that, whenever I call Ken he gives
great advice and is a real joy to deal with. I can't suggest him highly
enough for you parts needs. Vanagain.com.

The Lobro front outer CV boots are crazy thick, almost plasticy. They're a
bit of a struggle to get on, but should last well.
I was blessed in that all my front CVs were in good shape and just needed
to be repacked. I did build up a spare axle though, just for good measure.

Thanks again to everyone!
