CV Joint replacemrnt question
I'm thinking of going with the Lobro complete axel through our host. What else comes with the set? Can I use the excisting CV bolts? And do I need to use locking washers if there are none on the original ones?
Thanks in advance Moke 81 1981 SC |

You SHOULD get all new hardware except for the spacer "plates" that act as washers for every two bolts.
At least, that's how mine came  -Chris

when I did mine a few yrs back I had to get new bolts, the new units have smaller spacers thus needing smaller length bolts.
If your spacers on your car is the same as the new units, get new bolts anyway, good habit to replace bolts.
