    You didnt, the issue was bad enough for you remove the shafts in the first place, normal people only do that when there is something seriously wrong..... so when they go south again you will have done it twice...........

    Well there you go assuming again. I did not disassemble them because of any problem.

    As far as the Dino having an entirely unique CV design.....they don't.

    I had some correspondence with the ones that really know, at the time I bought my CV's etc.
    in 2010.

    "The numbers on the CV joint itself are:
    10N08 LBOC 153150199047
    Dia.: 108mm
    H.: 40.22mm
    Boot no. 2153157500006

    Clamp no. 1000007600105

    Gasket no. 2153152400009
    HT1LF-grease 120g-tube no. 9004328 (or originally specified 2LN-grease 120g-tube no. 9004312)"

    Hope this is of help, and not a hindrance to some geniuses.

    Regards,
    Alberto

    PS. I will gladly share more info, if you care to PM. Also, the gasket is NOT required.

    You really aren't getting it. I've done a ton of work to my car for performance and weight reduction. This was weight reduction.

    Do you want the entire story which has no relevance to this discussion?

    As for your last question, it was sarcasm.

    So now its weight reduction not wear!

    Not really interested so dont waste your time

    On the subject of sarcasm...sarcasm is considered to be the least sophisticated or intelligent type of humor. It implies that using sarcasm shows a lack of creativity and intellect, as it often involves mocking or ridiculing someone in a derisive manner. The quote might also imply that sarcasm is a cheap or easy way to try to be funny, lacking the depth and cleverness of other forms of wit or humor. Ultimately, it highlights the belief that there are more enlightened and sophisticated ways to express humor.

    The least intelligent type of humor and you are unable to detect it.

    To clarify since you have such a hard time following.

    -They were disassembled to replace the solid axle bar with a hollow one. Yes that would be for weight reduction

    -They were then re-assembled and swapped sides because of the drive side being highly polished and the decel side was not as I previously explained.

    It's really not that complicated.

    You never specified about the drilled shafts. a ton of work....meh, puzzling.

    Is it a competition car? Usually, rifle barreling axle shafts is for very, very high performance. A 355, unless a race version, well....:rolleyes:
    it is not the most 'race car' unless a piloti comp. version, perhaps, and then, it would not have required anything, no?

    It's really not that complicated about 'nice'.

    It was and is irrelevant.

    I was simply stating what I did and was told "It had to have a problem" as if I was lying and then told sarcasm is unintelligent so being nice in return is not warranted.

    They aren't drilled, they are hollow. Formed from heavy wall tubing. They also happen to be the stock shafts from a 360 modena.

    Is it a competition car? No, it's a car I drive around. Has a lot of carbon fiber, titanium, headers/exhaust I made, heads I ported. It weighs 2,835lbs and makes 372rwhp.

    Not sure why that information is needed in order to not be accused of lying about why I switched CV joints from side to side but here we are.
