Hey Jim, I have never used this place but seems like one helluva good deal.  Maybe others with first hand experience will chime in.

Hey guys,
So, I was able to mess around a bit under the car this weekend, looking to maybe 
et to the front driveshaft CV and try to regrease it, per Scott J's impressions 
his could be done with exhaust in place.  After many hours of wrestling around 
ith the car on a pair of jackstands, I concluded that I don't have the tools, 
nowledge, nor the space right now, to do it this way.  The heat shields were 
ot able to be removed without messing with the exhaust, and the clearance 
etween the cats is ridiculously small, so I aborted the mission and put 
verything back together so I at least have transportation.  I guess I'll need 
o just bite the bullet and order up the new bearing, drop the exhaust and do it 
ight.  After the holidays.
I should do the center bearing while I'm at it, and curious as to what people 
ave done to modify the center bearings that are currently available for the urS 
o make them fit.
I noticed a driveshaft rehab kit on Blau for like $500.  It this necessary?
Thanks for all the help so far......at least I know what I'm getting into now 
somewhat) when I find the time......I'm sure there will be plenty of questions 
o follow.
Best regards,
Jim Fleischer
