The next time you have a couple of hours to spare, click on Randy's link.

I went with new halfshaft assemblies as well. Its not a cheap project. Its not terribly difficult either. It is a dirty job and it is very important that everything is done properly (read the linked thread above).

Buy new hardware. Thats the cheap part of this project. 24 bolts, 24 lock washers, 4 gaskets, and the 4 half-moon shapped spacers is probably less than $50. The halfshaft assemblies are $200-$300 each depending on who you get them from.

Check with your local Autozone type chain for core exchanges on the entire assemblies. You'll be surprised at what you can sometimes find for literally 1/2 of what everyone is selling it for. It didnt work for me on the CVs, but you never know.
