OK i've tried posting on other forums but they SUCK! SAU always gets a response.

SO, my brother has an AE92 Corolla and we're trying do decide if he needs a new CV joint for the driver's side front wheel, or new bearings, or both.

The CV joint boot is busted, and grease has evidently p!ssed everywhere, so that's a definite :P

But with wear and tear i'm thinking the inner & outer bearings are screwed too. The wheel shudders on acceleration, makes a 'crack' noise on full locking (u-turns mainly) and has tons of play when i jack it and twist it left and right, making a clonk noise.

Just a CV joint, or bearings too?

Thanks :P

Im guessing that Cv join boot was busted long time agao, if that the caase there a good chance that bearings are gone too :down:, take it to a local pedders and get that 15 point test done, they will tell exactly whats wrong.
