armedanddangerous Posted September 15, 2020 Report Share Posted September 15, 2020 (edited) I have a 4wd single cab clone its lowered with upper control arms torsion keys and spindles but the passenger side cv axle keeps breaking its like a 6 inch drop. It has 24x9 intros also the cv boot keeps tearing, anyone have a solutions or had the same thing cv axle has been replaced 3 times. Thanks in advance Edited September 15, 2020 by armedanddangerous (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matslp488 Posted September 16, 2020 Report Share Posted September 16, 2020 iirc, the ball joint stud on the upper control arm has to be trimmed so it won’t come in contact wit the rubber boot on the cv.... unfortunately mines a 2wd, also 4-6 so I can’t confirm but maybe someone with a 4wd will point you in the right direction....

someotherguy Posted September 16, 2020 Report Share Posted September 16, 2020 I'm not a 4wd guy but with that much drop don't you need CV joint spacers or something to help with the extreme angle? Richard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
armedanddangerous Posted September 18, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2020 That's the issue that Ball Joint stud was trimmed and spacers were added ? boot still keeps breaking and cv axle as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
