Before I replaced my CV's, I tried to order 2 of the half shafts from
AutoZone and found they were out of stock nationally and awaiting supplies
from their vendor. I checked back weekly for several months. When they were
finally listed as stocked I ordered 2, only to find that there was only 1 in
stock. I ordered the 1, planning to replace the worst one on the vanagon.
When It did not arrive, we checked the computer and found that the order had
been cancelled due to being out of stock. I got a refund for the prepaid
order and got 4 CV's from Ronnie.
