back on the road

Almost all the bolts holding the cv joint to the differential were either bent or broken. Looks like they had backed out and the axel finally popped out and ripped the bolts out of there. I had to tap three of the holes because of damaged threads. I repacked the cv joint and took a body hammer to the dust cap. Cleaned up as much oil and grease as possible including brake cleaner in the threads with a que tip. Loc tite and tightened it all up with new bolts. Seems like all is well. No knocks howls or anything so I think I'm good to go. Ill just have to check em periodiclly.
