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.

Does anyone on here know any Sign Language?

@Old Man Hound what's your drivetrain?

did you try looking under the vehicle?

(-(

nvm...

rip

@Agent Smith Ford Focus

they also come in 4 wheel drive

The Focus O___o?

That's news to me lol

yup

old article

Oh O__o

I never knew the RS was 4wd

@Old Man Hound Might try jacking up that corner so that wheel is off the ground and wiggling it. Could be a few things, but one May be worn out suspension bushings. But you might be Able to track it down that way.

you can break an axle even with CVs

usually the CV fails though

and technically the Focus RS is awd not 4wd 😉

Time on deck is Ø5:32 and vc is in use.
😃😃😃😃

@Just for youtube [NB1] that's why I asked if they had a turbo and if they put the car in gear in the opposite direction of the car's momentum - it takes a buttload of torque to break an axle
them saying the car was chonking during cornering tells me it's the cv

yea

i mean technically an axle can just fatigue

and if you're like wide open over bumps or off curbs and stuff

the mass of the wheel/tire/brake can shock an axle enough to break it doing stuff like that

well sure, but they never said anything about extraordinary circumstances like you mentioned

and they'd know it when it happens like that

well he did say he shifted it like a racecar which is pretty extraordinary

I didn't see any mention of that

and i'm wide open over bumps and stuff often and it doesn't really feel like it's beating the shit out of the drivetrain although it definitely is
