cv joints/ axles

[bill bleiler]

yea, it will end up being parted out eventually, but im sooooo glad i get to keep her around for a while longer.  When compared side by side the axles do look exactly the same....i guess i will just get a cv boot kit , anybody installed one before?

Well, the ol' list made quick work of that problem, didn't it?

The passenger-side axle turns clockwise; the driver-side turns 
counterclockwise. But seriously--are there no part numbers cast or 
stamped into these pieces? More importantly--does ETKA show different 
parts (i.e., numbers) for right and left sides?

Anyway, I'm glad to hear you won't be forced to send her to the 
boneyard (not yet).
