Boy - as long as I was digging around on the CV joints, I'd take the time to do some needed maintenance.
Don't forget to replace the Khuneutson Valve. Should be occasionally replaced on engines with camshafts, especially if you see a reduced bore on your engine block.
Take a look at the Johnson Rod - it may need some service. In colder climates it has a tendancy to contract quite a bit, which may lead to failure.
Replace the Blinker Fluid. Most drivers overlook the blinker fluid.
You might also want to take a peek at the Muffler Bearings - they sometimes need to be greased and/or replaced.
Kale Co Auto has just about everything you need
Good luck!

-Don't need it! I've upgraded from a camshaft and khuneutson valve to a flux capacitor driving an explosive space modulator unit. Made by Marvin and Brown.

-My truck has a Johnson Rod, but this is my wife's car. Her's has the Johnson "bore".

-I have a tendancy to scrape my knuckles when working on cars, so there's never a lack of blinker fluid.
You might also want to take a peek at the Muffler Bearings - they sometimes need to be greased and/or replaced.
-It's still in pristine shape. We generally shy away from using the exhaust port. The Johnson Bore takes the brunt of the wear and tear.
Thanks for the advice!!!!!

Okay - now we know your ignorance is showing. You aren't much of a mechanic, are you???
A "flux capacitor driving an explosive space modulator unit"??? Seriously? Anyone who's anyone knows you cannot get a flux capacitor to drive a space modulator unit. ...and add "explosive" to the space modulator? What - are your trying to be cute???-Don't need it! I've upgraded from a camshaft and khuneutson valve to a flux capacitor driving an explosive space modulator unit. Made by Marvin and Brown.
Now you're just out and out contradicting yourself... If you have a car (wifes, in the case) that has the Johnson Bore - you will definitely need to look at the khuneutson valve. Particularly if "the Johnson Bore takes the brunt of the wear and tear".-My truck has a Johnson Rod, but this is my wife's car. Her's has the Johnson "bore".
Is that where you think Blinker Fluid comes from? ...and I suppose you think baby's come from the stork too!!!!-I have a tendancy to scrape my knuckles when working on cars, so there's never a lack of blinker fluid.
Muffler bearings in "pristine" shape??? Hardly - unless, of course, you use the KaleCoAuto brand of Spark Plugs and hollow spark plug wires.-It's still in pristine shape. We generally shy away from using the exhaust port. The Johnson Bore takes the brunt of the wear and tear.
Well, that's nice. None of the boots have worn through, so I have no clue which one it is. All four wheels have them. I get a feeling it's the passenger side front, but I'm going to have to run outside the vehicle while my wife is turning and accellerating just to make sure. That also probably means it's some kind of defective part. CV's should get more than 50K miles as long as the boots hold.
