Oops... :'(
-
i know it was a wierd break too.
-
I guess there's no more Sweet Jumps for that Taco ::)
-
Is it the same side as the last time?
-

-
SAS
get there... probaly cheaper in the long-run anyway.
-
post on this later..gotta go
-

-
Yeah, you should be done, its been almost 2 hours since you started!

did you jump it?
-
No, he got jammed on a tree and couldn't move.
-
Done, looks good.
-
fixed @ 0845.
no SAS.
i have two spare cv's. both are fully warrantied. so everytime i break one, i just swap them out and get a new one for free.
plus, they fully refunded the one that broke.
so 160.00 for two cv's 1 in the truck 1 as a a spare. and the money refunded back on the gift card for another back up spare.
constantly rotating them is cheaper. and when i get a front bumper, lifting the vehicle will be easier.

I'll tell you what though, breaking a front axle every single time you go out gets old real fast. Took me about 4 breaks before I decided enough was enough and I needed to do something about it.

i like the cvs still but it's not old. yet.
it's wierd, i survived vanes almost the whole till i had one hop. and that was it. but then on thursday, i had the wheel cranked and locked the drive train on a branch. sun night, front psngr tire was in a hole and pulled it enough that it pretty much dis-located. so i am not too bent about it. plus, this being the third time, it's getting really quick changing them out.

Back to topic...I wanna know how Hot-Rod's getting FREE CVs everytime he farts one up?
-
lifetime waranty, but I'm guessing that they won't tolerate his "abuse" too much longer. :)

OOoooOOOooo I thought he was getting all kinds of hookups...you know, free car washes etc :P
I wonder how much longer Advanced Auto will keep replacing them?
-
till mexico goes out of business

till mexico goes out of business
:D
-
thats where thay get them
-
As long as it's not a Limited lifetime warranty, it shouldn't be an issue. Look on the bright side, Hot-Rod, you're cv part was what? $160 with the lifetime warranty? You know what my warranty is? A NEW F'ING AXLE! >:(
I'd rather replace cv's... :'(
-
well, less than 80.00 bucks a piece
-
generally the warranty says stuff about not covered for abuse, and they usually say stuff about racing, off-road, etc.
I'm sure you'll be fine for a few, especially if you know somebody there, but sooner or later, their upstream supplier is going to start telling them that they won't take them back anymore, because it's not possible to be breaking so many so quickly without abuse.
-
I talked to the guy at advanced and he said to me that after the first breakage, the second is warrenteed for 90 days. He also said not to say you broke it wheeling, say something like you broke it driving in snow. Abuse is not covered, but they don't care as long as they have plausible deniability.
Good thing for Jon and I: 79.95 each, minus 10% military discount, and they are not side-specific. I can use the same on on either side :D
-
I was very carefull about my words. i acted like i was in absolute shock that it happened. i had the old reciept and stated that it actually was a month that it had been in the truck.
so thet helped me out immediately.
plus it not being covered in mud def helped.
