As a side note, I have 185K on the original CV shafts. But you drive (what’* a good word to use?) differently than I do

Greg... I've got 185K as well. it'* no doubt I drive "differently" than you.

Shafts go bad when a boot tears.. that could be at anytime.

Heyyyy are you sure they didn't have to replace an axle when the Cheetah tried to break out of the condo complex?
