Got the CV replaced tonight and also started to rework my Limit straps. also put my new toy to use.
My last strap set up was 100% bolt on and worked OK but I managed to bend my mounting clevises to the point of not being functional.
so now that I have a welder I changed them up
New vs old ( you can see the bend in the lower mounted clevis.)
the new set up uses a sleeve and standoffs that is welded to the frame next to the shock tower support bracket.
Lower tab mounted and burned in
all painted and tight ( this should be much more robust.)
New Parts, figured while I was replacing 1 CV I might as well do both and replace the wheel bearings at the same time.
out with the old
In with the new (its amazing what some degreaser and a wipe down will do, it is black under all the dirt!)
