Re: Lessons about CV axle failure

Ok, I've got some questions. First some background. I'm closing in on 60 and I've done things like replace transmissions, rear ends, clutches, pistons, rings, manifolds, brakes, axles and other various and assorted items BUT this was done to cars, trucks, tractors that were made in the 70's and before. I've never jacked with a CV joint, never heard of a tulip thingy or a beerfield one either. We only do what I'd call gentle off roading compared to what you guys do.
Ok, Ok the questions. What would be the approximate cost of buying all those extra parts?
Assuming that we don't tear up a cv joint what might be the next most breakable part when running the bunny slopes?
Are wussies like me in the vast minority here?
