on rebuilt axle from eeuroparts. i guess there's a reason they stopped selling them recently. they offered to send me a new inner CV joint (nice offer but no thanks), i'm not taking chances on that axle, the outer joint started clicking on hard parking turns shortly after it was installed, but i figured i could live with that (or it was some other random noise). now i don't trust anything on it.
the retaining ring on one of the bearings snapped into a bunch of pieces which became wedged in the outer groove cast into the cup. the pieces scratched up the cup a bit around where they were wedged... i don't see how that'll be a problem... the cup itself seems ok
do you think i should dremel buff them out?
the cup otherwise seems fine and i would hate to try to remove it or pay someone to (i have a new i bought awhile back just in case).
i put my old driver's side axle back in and eeuro is shipping me a brand new axle (I pay difference of course).
