Went out ridein to night wile doin a small hill I hit a rock and bottomed out in a rut HARD..Now all my right side axle does is spin? The left does nothing.I am thinkin a cv? Also my right axles has a lot of slop in it now. I have a bus trans. I dont know what axles or stubs I have it is a irs rail.

More than likely its a cv. watch the axle spin and then watch the cv's if the axle spins and the cv doesnt then thats the problem

When in doubt, hit it in second gear!

That is what it is then. Will the stock unints work or am I better off gettin differnt ones?

stocks will work - but you have to know if it is car or bus on the stub axle side -- when alot of people switch to bus trans. they use an bus cv on the trans side and a car cv on the tire side. the bus cv's are bigger in diameter than car ones.
If you have bus on each side change it with a stock one if you have extras -- if you have to buy one buy one for a vw thing , they allow you a little more angle than stock bus cvs
Hope this helps ya,

I don't know your financial position, but if you want to fix that problem for a long time, buy a porsche 930 kit. I am ordering one soon and I am told they will hold up for a long time.

HAHA..Im a poor high school kid.lol Yea 930s will be over the winter when I rebulid thw whole thing. Im goin to tare it down today and see what happin..Is there any way to protect the axles/cvs on a bug?

They are really strong..........and expensive...........

The riding style of most around here is better geared toward a bus to bus setup.
That bus CV acts somewhat like a fuse so it's less likely to break transmissions.
Just another opinion..............

I was a member of the broken cv joint club for a while. Just keep a couple of spare axles in the car. I had one friend go all out weld two steel plates to hold two axles under the hood of a Baja. Out of your budget but even a set of Sway Away axles will help stock joints last longer. Any engine other than stock needs larger CVs.

Yes over the winter I am goin to get a set of 930s and sway aways for the longer trailing arms. I am thinkin I have bus cvs at both ends. I ant for sure.How do I tell?
