There is a local shop on my monday night route which remans CV joints. The machine the joints and install oversize balls. The 914/6 friggen joint is unique. At least 1 of mine has gone bad.
Has anyone tried this? |

My -6 CV joints were buggered too. I just replaced them with -4s at the recommendation of Brad and Rich Bontempi at HPH. They said the only difference between a -6 and -4 CV is that the -6 internally has one more spline. The dimensions, strength, outside appearance, etc of the -4 CV are the same as the -6.
Changing ball size sounds like a lot of trouble and expense. If you go that route let us know how much it cost and what the result was. (I still have my worn out -6 CVs that could be redone). |
