CV Axle difference between years?

989 Views 5 Replies 2 Participants Last post by  vasilaar
Is there a difference between the CV axles (passenger side) between years of the 2g?
Or is there a jspec/aspec one?

I've got a 97 LS with a 94 (i think) ZE in it... and the mount (between the trans and the 1st boot) won't bolt up... WTF?

do i have to find an axle out of an earlier model?

thanks guys

Yes, you will need to find the three bolt half shaft. The outter part of the CV on the one you have will mate to this half shaft. Search for a thread by me for info on pricing from the dealer.

The problem you will run into is that almost all auto stores sell the wrong one or missing the proper bracket.

You need a 93 half shaft with the three bolt patern.

BAM... perfect... Thanks.
as a follow up (and i will be posting in the WTB section)... anyone have an extra one lying around?
They are pretty rare, Mhughes46, can sell you a two bolt modified into one that is suppose to fit.

I just changed mine and tried the WTB section but ended up going to the dealer. Plus with the dealer you get a new bearing.

Yea i'm already talking with Hughes and have one lined up.
He's got a modified 2 bolt, but i'm checking some shops here too before i commit.

A new bearing would be nice... but his price is pretty darn magical... yarrr.. lol
