Hey guys, same problem as before, i was sliding around on grass the other night, heard a bang, and lost drive to the front end. Tracked it down to what i think is a busted CV joint on the front end passenger side, but im not sure if its the CV joint or the hub. The bearings in the hub all cracked and fell apart, is this the hub or part of the CV joint?

Are your balls big or small?

Big balls = cv.
Small balls = hub bearings.
