WTB CV Joints

[Hans]

WTB: CV joints with asymmetric bolt pattern (3+3 rather than 6 even spaced holes).

Are you sure the flanges aren't drilled with two sets of holes to accept *either* symmetrical or asymmetrical CVs? I do have a complete (symmetric 6 bolt) halfshaft for sale, cheap ($20 plus shipping), if that will help.

I can even rebuild it (media blast and paint shaft, fresh boots and German Moly grease/clamps) for an additional fee.

e mail me if this will work for ya': zenwrenchpaul at yahoo dot com

Thanks. Some cars came with flanges drilled to accept either style. Sadly mine is not so equiped. I'm not desperate enough to start changing flanges. I actually have everything I need except the hat shaped backing plate for the CV joint drilled with 3+3 pattern.

FWIW - Porsches don't even USE that end cap. Instead they use a flimsy seal between the flange and all that grease inside the CV joint. If you've ever done axles on one, you know how messy and miserable it is, compared to a 2002!
