Hey guys new to the form. i had a shudder when tuening right or a lil when going staight.I " my cusin and i"changed the cv axel since then "only a night"it slips when turning left,checked tranz fluid it was low...is there a seal i can replace and how do u install it...thank you all for the help...i have a 2000 mc ss 3.8

 

I found out that the new cv axel was not going all the way up and letting it leak....so now i have the old 1 back in for now...we tried to get the new 1 to go for about 3 hrs...checked it every way we could againt the old 1 ..it matched just would not go!!

 

I seriously dont know what to say. Mabye you just have to muscle it in haha.

 

I just did the passenger side on my MC a week ago. The splines on the new shaft should line up and go in with relative ease. If it is being held up, try to tap the shaft into the tranny with a rubber mallet. Tap it on the hub type part that is past the inner joint. If you can't get a mallet in there, use a block of wood to butt up against it and then tap it in. It really shouldn't take much force to pop that little washer on the end into place within the tranny. If your cousin is around have him hold the shaft in place so you know that everything is straight.
Good luck. I was having the same type of vibration you are having under the same situations AND I am still getting the vibrations. The shaft was bad on mine so replacing it was no big deal but that shudder sucks.

 

Like you Sliver i changed my right side ...it didnt help with the shakes..but it did need it...did u change your left side too??? Also did u try your stuts???Keep me informed and i'll do the same Thanks

 

Fixed mine today!!!!I ended up changing both cv axels..it was the drivers side that was causing the shake....smooth as silk now...WoooHooo
