needing to replace my 4th cv joint !

just going on a rant, i will be replacing my 4th front cv joint here soon,

i replaced both fronts abought a year ago and abought 3 months ago i had the left go out again and now the right is going out, so it will be a total of 4 front cv joints with in 3 year and 25,000 miles !!!!

i think im getting cheap rebuilt ones, there is a place close by my house that does them for 160.00 i think it was that been doing it,

im not sure if its because the car is lowered or the offset on the wheels maybe or just cheap rebuilt cv joints

Sorry to hear that you've had so many issues. We usually use new units from advance auto parts and we have never had an issue.

According to the information I have, the Advance axles are also less expensive as well.

I've had the same problem with the re man ones too. On my Svx and my impreza. The Impreza ones now get are all new from autozone for about $75. but I can't find anyone that sells the new ones for the svx.
