Which Axles?
Ccemn1:
FYI, apparently I'm not the only one unaware of this, as I took the car to three different mechanics here in Ft. Myers, FL, all of whom have been in business since the 70's, and none of them were willing to rebuild CV joints. Every one of them told me to just find a new half shaft, saying "nobody rebuilds CV joints anymore".
For guys with a hobby like this, you don't seem too terribly well adjusted, name calling and going on the attack so quickly and easily. Maybe you should consider a little more intimacy with women? Just might make you a little more chill. Smarta$$.

Its VERY obvious you know nothing about Fiero's, which is what makes it so comical when you claim its not possible to replace just the CV joints and re-use the existing axels which is what we have been telling you from the start.
In case you didn't know, there's this thing called the "internet", and a search engine called "Google". It's probably a good idea if you try searching the internet FIRST, before you go on a forum saying you need help but then tell the people responding they are wrong about the advice they are giving lol. Dumb@ss.

Thank you, and I do genuinely appreciate this, but wouldn't this have been so much easier, than engaging in the previous childish BS?
It seems some on here are totally unaware that there are others without this knowledge, or they just prefer playing games.
Thanks again.

I don't know why you chose to initiate three different posts on the same topic. Usually one post will get you on the right road to driving your replica again. You must realize that a "replica" is NOT a kit car. Each of us that have built or are building a replica have hundreds of "custom" built parts in them. There are no two replicas alike. They may appear to be the same but they are not. When a part fails and you need help in the repair, many times it will end up with you, the owner, to think of a plan for the repair. We may not understand your verbal explanation of your problem or the lack of quality pictures of the problem part in order to give you a repair remedy but we try.

To those of you who HAVE been helpful, I apologize, but to anyone reading these posts, the vitriol and nonsense couldn't be more obvious.
I posted a few different times, when failing to get any Info, or answers, hoping I might finally encounter someone with some mechanical knowledge (I'd still like to know how these guys replace a CV joint without rebuilding it, or replacing the axle!). I'd also like to know who it is holding a gun to these people's head, forcing them to read my posts and get so upset?
I have built four "Replicars". All but one, VW Type 1 based. My knowledge of Fieros is nonexistent, and I apologize for that.
I still contend that there are more on here either looking for an argument, or trying to prove how smart they are, than there are those helpful and supportive to newbies, which really reflects bad on the site.
