1998 V70 T5 Auto FWD CV joints
 
Hi

On my 1998 V70 T5 Auto fwd, both outer cv boots have split.
One split a few months ago and I put a split boot on, and it has been split again for the last few weeks, and now the other side has gone too.
Over the last few months I have been feeling an occasion "clack" at low speed when turning. Maybe one or more of my CV joints is worn?

Looking at Robert DIY video on an 850 which is similar
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9f14N5Tl9Hk
he replaces a whole axle (looks used).

If I can get the whole axle out (passenger side initially), how do the CV joints come off the shaft?

I can get the outer joint from J and R for £12.99 including the large nut
https://www.jandrcvjoints.co.uk/volv.../cv-joint/JR91
but I don't know where to get the inner joint.
Any ideas?

Thanks
Steve

PS

Just found this very good write up for replacing the outer joint (and boot)

So that just leaves the inners ...

PS
Sorry, just found another excellent video from Robert, which shows dismantling the inner and outer joints.

So, I just need to source the inner joints and boots, or whole axles.

It is just a thought, but have you tried phoning J & R, 0121 770 5636.

They may be able to source what you can't find on their website..

Thanks Ast85,

Yes I have tried them, but I believe they only do the outer joints for this car.

Meanwhile I have found complete axles:

Right hand side
Volvo part number 8111310
Proparts 46431099
http://www.skandix.de/en/spare-parts...right/1049081/

Left hand side
Volvo part number 8111309
Proparts 46431309
http://www.skandix.de/en/spare-parts...-left/1049078/

Not too bad. But I would really like to find the inner joints on their own.

Steve
