[QUOTE="Vic Sorlie, post: 1009900, member: 69241"] If your CV boots are torn then it's possible that dirt is in them there joints. Guess about the only way you can tell is to remove the axles for inspection, then replace the boots (and grease) as needed. Video below is what a typical shop does - replace the axle with a new or rebuilt part. Axle replacement (there will be probably be core charge, shipping, etc.) is the quickest. Replacing just the boots is cheaper; check for shop in your city that rebuilds axles. You do the removal, shop does the rebuild, then you put it all back together. [/QUOTE]
