CV joint 360 busted

Common repair. Replace boot and repack with grease. CV joint is probably okay.

 

There's no reason to replace the shaft. Even if the joint is worn out, it's not an "expensive" part. It's a messy job and requires a few tools that not everyone has but if you're a serious DIYer it's possible.

 

Make sure to clean out all the old grease as it is probably sand "infected" by now. Even a little sand left behind will eventually grind the joint to bits.

 

Looks like I have the same problem.

Where can I find the rebuild kit or at least a new boot set?

Also, can this be causing a whining type sound in high gear with no load on the wheels?

Thanks!

I thought the car used 911 axles. I understand the 911 Boots work..
