May I have some input please.
On a recent trip my CV joints on the left side started to make
a very loud noise.
I found a small shop and they confirmed it was CV joints.
They said it was cheaper to replace the left rear axle
that comes as a complete unit with the CV joints.
They did so with a remanufactured or new one from
O'Reily Parts. O'Reily sells both new and remanufactured.
I believe this is remanufactured by not totally sure.
They took my core.
These come out of China.
Can I have any confidence in the product?
What are my options if I wish to upgrade the quality?
Am I limited in options buy replacing whole axel and joints
as a unit?
Lastly because a remanufactured ones uses as many
original parts as possible would it be better than a
brand new Chinese in quality?
I always want the best parts possible but I was stuck
in small town and just needed to get on the road quickly.
Have put 400 miles on it and things seem fine.
Thanks for reading and any input will be valued and
appreciated as my knowledge in these matters
is extremely limited.
