Front Axles For 91 Audi 200 20V Avant

[Paul Caouette]

Sad News!

As some have noted this is turning out to be a nightmare. Raxles can build the right from shelf parts. But the outer joint is NLA. 

I've had them rebuilt once already so it might not be possible to go that route once again. 

Oh my! This is really troubling. 

I might have to give her up. .....:-(

> Worldpac doesn't list either the axles or the outer CV Joint, which frequently means no one else does either.  Rebuilders may be the only choice available.  I recall others on this forum speaking well of Raxles.  Might give 'em a call at (800-257-8192).
