Does your Acty shake?

    Check the front CV joints...

    Brief grab and shake says one of my front CV joints ate a bearing... you can also see the CV axle spins out of round when you spin the drive shaft.

    Anyone know the cheapest place to get a new one or am I better off trying to locate a place to rebuild it?

    :(

    For anyone in the future with front inner CV joint problems.

    If the races are OK, you can use needle bearings from a U-Joint, Car Quest part number 220-0028

    When I got mine it shaked at 30-45mph, later found out it was a bent drive shaft. My guess it was a fork lift operator who didn't care.

    My CV axle spit out all the needle bearings... not sure how, my guess is someone didn't put it back together right.

    Just realized I didn't really elaborate on how I fixed it, and why it was shaking.

    But the U-Joint I bought had the same size needle bearings, so I just repacked the one bearing that lost all the needles on the inner joint, and all is well.
