Hi all, a very good customer of mine had blown a cv joint. so i stripped the 95 wagon with 4.66, lockers, 35" simex down and found the short side cv joint had imploded internally causing major havick. thought is share with you the damge report.
when you do something do it properly! like he did.. not a bad effort.
cheers
