Default open to the elements and grease missing from joint

PurpleVenom IMO and the fact he would be smart to remove the axle assembly before he starts grinding or cutting the nubs off. The other thing is how much grease is to be in the joint. There is a spec and having the correct CV boot grease. Add too much grease, the pressure can build up in the joint and pop the boot off. I have seen and had this happen to me. Not enough grease and burn out a joint. I would leave the axle in when cutting or grinding this off. real easy to hit the boot, seal, and needing to clean the area real good from the metal filings. If these are stock axle lengths and joints are stock, fine out the cost of remans and do what you want. If custom you will pay double to triple. Not my money. This is the smart way, that's all. It's like you racing the cobra with the viper motor in 1/4 mile without the wheels bars you bent??? remember that one? No bars, that car is on the rear bumper and doing damage. Rick L How much longer does it take to do the repair the right way and not worry instead of quick fix, rub goldberg, mcgiever, and half azz, the list goes on.
