Guest Rota_Motor Guests Posted 08/03/05 11:44 AM Share Posted 08/03/05 11:44 AM so, I cant tell in the pics with all the grease but what actually breaks in the CV's?? the balls are ok, the cage obviously shatters as it all comes apart, but is it the inner or the outer that is having problems not standing up to the abuse?I wonder what things like vipers use to hold the power they make without snapping like twigs?
