Assembling the cv joints is a bit tricky, but if you follow Van-Cafe's
excellent directions it's a piece of cake.

>>I just took possession of a couple of half axles from Van Cafe'. One of the CV's has come apart in transit with ball bearings laying in the box. I need to find out from anyone who has assembled these what a reasonable amount of time/labor would be to put one back together. It's just one side.  Van Cafe' has agreed to reimburse me for time, so just need an estimate. I have decided to turn this job over to a mechanic, who I'm sure will charge me to do this. The rate here in Alaska is $95 per hour. So, I'm guessing about 15 minutes, but maybe 30?
