Well, I broke a cv, so i took them both out so i wouldnt do anything wierd to my diff. I figured i could drive around until i could get a new one. Some kid rode his bike into the middle of the road so i slammed my brakes to keep from hitting him. Then my abs light came on. Turns out, the CV's hold the wheel bearings together and by slamming my brakes i gave just enough force to almost break my wheels off. I jacked it up after realizing my bearing was bad, and the driver's side is about to fall off and the pass side is just gone too far. So now i need to find a way to get a new cv and 2 hubs using no money or form of transportation. Maybe i still have my scooter from when i was 10....

Cliffnotes:
1. dont drive a 4wd w/o cv's.
2. I now ride a scooter.

The End.

 

Good piece of advice there...

 

You are luck that nobody got hurt!

 

2wd hubs should bolt right on to the 4wd spindles

they dont need cv's :hehehehe:

 

could have told ya that.............DONT DRIVE W/O CV'S!!!!

 

i did the same thing in my olds s10 when i was like 16 and i made it about 2 miles then made a right turn and BAM! my tire goes flying off the only thing holding it was the break line

 

offf topic, but how did you brake a CV joint?

 

that was what woundering to i have rip the boots but never broke one before

 

if the front end starts bouncing offroad and grabs something hard the cv joints with break with very little power especially with big tires

 

i doubt he was off road
