This should answer your question? I used it to help me replace mine on my altima.

My 94 Grand Cherokee Limited is in the shop right now for a gas leak, and a broke CV axle. They estimated @ 400 for the CV axle if I dexcide to do it. The shop actually said if I am not 4x4ing, the jeep would go another 10 years without fixing it, it will just make the noises, but otherwise is ok not to fix????

A bad ball joint isn't safe any way you look at it. Some major damage can happen if the wheel becomes dislodged from the chassis. The major component holding the wheels on are the ball joints, upper and lower, which hold the spindle that houses the axle. The spindle holds the wheel bearing, tie rod, brakes, wheel etc. You can lift the vehicle up by the front and check the wheel for play, up and down. There shouldn't be much, if any play. If there is alot of play then you shouldn't drive it much till it get's fixed. That's my opinion. Good luck.

i am having pain in my hip joint i am 43 yrs old i had a car accident the doctor has advised total right side hip joint replacement

A CV is short for the Latin phrase curriculum vitae, which means "course of life." This document details your best qualities as they pertain to the open role. Submitting your CV is standard practice when applying for any job, from entry-level to senior positions.

If you need to learn how to make your CV and want to get your CV created by a professional CV writing service. Here I suggest names for your CV writing like CVWriting Help and many more.

The easiest way to replace them is to replace the axles. If you are not mechanically inclined you should see a mechanic if you are so adept here are the steps:

1. put the front of the car up on jack stands and block the rear wheels

2. remove both front wheels or the wheel of the damaged side

3. look in the center of the brake rotor, see the nut that looks like a castle with a pin through the bolt its on? that has to come off, remove the pin and nut but don't damage the pin you will reuse it, if it brakes you can get them at an auto parts store

4. you have to remove the lower steering control arm it will be towards the back of the car attached to the spindle, it will have a nut facing up, remove the nut and gently tap the arm down to get it lose

5. look directly beneath the rotor there will be another nut, this one hold the spindle (what holds the rotor) to the lower control arm, remove it

6. now you should be able to move the lower control arm down and swing the spindle out towards you to pull the axle out the back of the spindle

7. now using a long screwdriver or pry bar follow the axle to the transmission where it meets the transmission there is a boot and a cylindrical cup where it meets the transmission use the pry bar between the cup and the transmission to pop the axle out of the transmission

8. get a new axle and reverse the steps for reinstallation however be sure that when you are putting the new axle in that you don't pull it long ways there is a slip joint inside the cup end and if you pull it too far the bearings inside might come lose.

Hope this helps but be sure to be careful and take your time.

clicking when turning.

A bad inner CV joint will make a clicking noise when making sharper turns on the outside wheel. The clicking noise is from the ball bearing inside of the joint being loose and rattling around inside the race. I recommend getting it replaced ASAP due to the fact that if it fails it will wreak havoc and you could possible lock up the wheel it is bad on and force you to a halting stop or even worse, causing you to lose control and crash. It is always a better bet to be safer than sorry.

1. Loosen the wheel nuts with the vehicle on the ground.
2. Put the vehicle up on a jack stand
3. Remove the loosened wheel nuts
4. remove the wheel
5. Disconnect the ABS sensor from the brake and hang it out of the way
6. Remove the brake caliper & bracket and hang the caliper out of the way with a zip tie.
7. Remove the brake rotor
8. Undo the axle bolt (use a breaker bar)
9. Remove the lower ball joint cotter pin and loosen the nut
10. Split the lower ball joint
11. Remove the lower ball joint nut
12. Repeat steps 7-9 with the upper ball joint
13. Remove the steering knuckle from the vehicle
14. pry the axle out from the differential housing with a screw driver or crow-bar (it's held in with a spring clip)

This problemsounds like the tires might need to be rotated and balanced. the car might need to be aligned if the car pulls to the right when you are driving straight.

Hmmm.. well could you start off by putting the grades you achieved in school, past jobs? erm.. your good qualites, things you have achieved so far in your life? (:

If not, could you maybe apply to do a course/ courses so then you have things to put on your CV? (:

Sorry if i wasn't any help, only suggestions as imma 15 ^^

2001-2006 Escapes do not have CV joints. They have CV axles, a ball joint, and an outer tie rod joint.

Replacing the ball joint is the most difficult of the 3. You might as well do all 3 if you have a bad ball joint, unless you have recently done the others. You have to basically remove the brake caliper and rotor, if you have ABS detach the sensor, push out the CV axle from the hub, disconnect the upper sway bar linkage from the strut, disconnect the 2 bolts attaching the hub to the strut tower, remove the tie rod joint kotter pin and bolt, and then pop the tie rod joint out.

Now, the hub should be connected solely to the ball joint. It's tough getting the hub off. When the hub is off, you should now just be looking at the old ball joint in the control arm. You can use a ball-peen hammer to smack the old ball joint out, or use a ball joint press if you have one. You will definitely need to use a press to get the replacement ball joint pressed back in.

Getting everything back together can be a bit tricky; it is better to get the hub back on the new ball joint, re-connect the CV axle into the hub, and then get the hub assembly back into the strut tower connection. You will have to use significant force to lower the control arm to get the bolt holes in the hub and strut connection to line up (i.e. 1 person standing on it, the other getting the bolts in). After you attach the hub to the strut tower, you will then be able to use a jack to raise the control arm (and hub/strut tower) enough to get the upper sway bar linkage back in.

Then reconnect the tie-rod joint, throw the rotor back on, and hook up the brake caliper again (and ABS sensor if you have).

I just this today and managed to get it done in about 3 hours. I'm not a mechanic, but I'm pretty good and this was a pain and was pretty messy. I also highly recommend the MOOG replacement parts for the sway bar linkage, ball joint, and outer tie-rod. They are engineered far better than the original Ford parts and are inexpensive.

You need to replace the ball joint when you hear creaking and grinding when you are slowing down to an almost complete stop, as if the wheel were about to grind or snap off. Also note that if you replace the outer tie-rod joint, and lose track of where it was set, you will need to get an alignment.

The consumable parts of the front suspension are the struts, CV shafts, tie rods (and ends) wheel bearings, and ball joints. Any of the parts can be replaced individually and typically wear out at different rates.

There are 2 U joints on a 1999 Ford expedition. There is an U joints on each end of the driveshaft.

When a CV joint goes bad you will hear a clicking noise coming from the front end. Which ever way you turn the outside wheel will click due to the load going to that wheel and you will hear a distinct clicking sound. If you drive on it long enough it can completely fail and can get quite costly you should go out now and get a new one if it is bad. You do not want to have to pay for a tow and risk tearing up the internals to your engine by driving on a bad CV!
