CV Joint replacement

Recommended Posts

I've taken the driveshaft out to change the outer CV joint boot for the MOT and noticed the inner joint has about 1mm play on the driveshaft splines. There doesn't appear to be any play in the joint itself, just in respect to the shaft. Do you recon the inner CV needs changing or can I just ignore it? Cheers.

I can feel a little bit of slack but nothing that I wouldn't expect from a 120k gearbox and running gear. I thought it was pretty unusual to need to change the inner CV joints as they don't do so much moving, and didn't expect there to be any slack between the splines.
