After my weekend at Avoca in the Pyrenees Ranges both my CVs are knackered. They are both clicking, banging.

I plan on running bigger tyres and would like to upgrade to some chromolies.

Now the trick is where can I get them?

Oh bugger. Toyota CV eh? What model do you pull them off?

What mods are needed to fit? I'm very curious.

just put new cv's in, worry about it when people comment that you made a days trip with only stopping to replace 3 cv's

A bit of stuffing around and a creatively machined piece would see sierra chromoly cv's fit, but thats a job for a smart person
