Clunk Clunk Cluck silence - No Gears | WHAT BROKE?

[986Eve]

Here we go.

I would greatly appreciate a head up.

What is this?
Where can I get the parts the cheapest?
A video link to the repair.

I have the tools and I need to park this in front of a serious yacht in like 7 days.

Gentlemen, please advise. Thank you

986Eve,

Actually you have great news :-)

Because.. the CV Joint is way cheaper than replacing a broken flywheel, clutch plate etc...

I would recommend a used half shaft from Woody (actually both sides), as the other side has the same mileage...

Clean the treads very well and install the bolts with a few drops of Locktite blue and you should be clear to chase the Chiquitas again :-)

Looks like the bolts all came loose.
When you bolt everything back together use a torque wrench and torque to specs.
if you need the torque spec. holler I will look it up for you

You can certainly do as suggested and just replace the axle, but looking at that flange it appears to have been hammered pretty badly. Maybe you can dremel the burrs off and get a good fit but the outer ridge that centers the axle flange will never be the same. Be sure to use blue loctite and retorque in 500 miles.

BLue62, Kindly, what is the torque spec for those bolts?

M8 bolts -39 N/m (29ft-lb.)
M10 bolts -81 N/m (60ft-lb.)

I believe in your first post you stated the car was a 1999 if so it should have
M8 bolts. I gave both specs. just in case

If you cant afford the time to fix it right the first time... When will find time to fix it again?

Do it once the right way.
