pics of the shorn shaft

[Rabbit16v@attbi.com (Rabbit16v)]

I think you got your answer!  Sorry about all the torque stuff, thought you
were talking about the inner bolts!  Anyway, I have been told to always use
the stock shaft and buy new CVs and install.  The rebuilt axles that I have
gotten in the past are junk.  I guess they are rebuilt in such large
quantities that things like grease and clips are sometimes missed!!
Recently the company I have dealt with for quite some time has changed their
warranties!!  Now they don't warranty them for life anymore.  Probably
loosing too much money!
