Folks, I am in a similar situation (no WOT, just after a minor road-bump); my pass/Rt-side axle has similarly died THREE times: Same failure mode each time, destruction at CV joint/boot - following careful installation with new circlip and gentle, flush mounting. I've been buying "increasingly better" parts - now up to reman' OEM 'Cardone' version. I am getting bloody tired of this job, and cannot believe that I will have to spend several hundred for a new OEM?@!
Has anyone solved a repeat-failure situation, either by a magic installation technique, discovered other contributing failure, or acquiescing and giving over a thousand to the stealership? My next will be either a 'better still' reman, or a junkyard pull. HELP?!?
