honestly dont know friend said their hasports but they dont say, ill post pics 2morowCongrats on the buy. Just curious to know, what mounts are on it?
im trying to not to put alot of money into it, i need to sell it soon, wife complains everyday because i bought the car so i just want to get the correct axle for it and sell it for a fam. car so if anybody wants to buy it pm meWin....
I have those same mounts. They are trash.
I use to rip boots all the time. Adding more grease extended the life span of my boots. But I'm still having the an issue with the driver side axle inner cv joint. The slpine breaks off and the broken spline piece gets stuck in the differential.
N/A street car with stock clutch and 11lb flywheel. Sounds like you may have an axle lenght issuse as well.
I can measure my passenger axle lenght on and post it. Whenever it decides to stop raining.
Don't be dumb like me. I suggest you get new mounts immediately.
