ok. 2 possible reasons for the failure
a. jamming the gears in to the opposite direction of movement
b. the rubber boots that protect the cv joints failed either from age or mechanical interference, eg. kicked up stones or driving over shit that can drag on/ tear the boots

tbh

I jammed the gears *alot*

as said, I was ignorant of any side effects

feel like an absolute moron now

b. is the usual cause for the failure with people who don't do that shit

it's very common

I mean

idk

it's a 26 year old car

but I clearly had no clue what I was doing

how long did you have it?

RIP Spader's car

eh

3 years or so

*how long I've been driving it

ok. a car that age it would be unusual if it hadn't failed maybe 2 or more times without a regular service schedule to catch it early

I'm not aware it's ever been replaced

my father owned it for as long as I've been alive

22 years, approximately

nice

the boots will 100% chance have been replaced in that time to last so long

okay

so it probably was my dumbassery that broke it, then

eh

3 years is a decent run

especially taking that into consideration

I mean

the replacements are fairly affordable

cv joint boot

and a failed one

😬

changing them is cheap - neglecting it means the joint will break

Hey guys

My rear tire on tight turns is clicking

Or kind of "chunking"

and I feel like the suspension on that side is a little rough.

I checked the Lug nuts and they seem good.
