Has anyone ever tried sourcing just the ball bearings for our CV joints? I went thru the trouble of breaking a few extra cv joints down and cleaning everything up a few months ago, now just realized that I secured all parts in a dry place except the chrome ball bearings (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) . Needless to say they’ve been rained on several time and look terrible. Perhaps they can be cleaned, I’ll need to look into that (suggested methods ? ) - but assuming they’re scored or peeling chrome, are there any chances of purchasing these somewhere?

False Alarm!! I’m an idiot sometimes.. the bearings I found out in the rain were the ones I’d actually panned out as not ideal. So they were the bad ones that I had and should have been thrown away, thought I did. So I got several complete sets to rebuild including a complete set of 108's too which I also forgot about - thanks everyone for your great (and typical) generosity!
